That is the flag of the Nigerian armed forces. Together with the Nigerian flag, it means he is both the president of Nigeria and also the commander in chief of the armed forces.

I just keep wondering what those horses and the lone eagle are going through now in the hands of Buhari right there in the villa.

Am sure they wanna go their separate ways cos nothing is working after 56yrs is stagnancy.

If you have nothing meaningful to contribute, you keep your fingers crossed. Your little brain didn't let you know that the flag is for the Armed Forces?! Keep embarrassing yourself online "Mr Woman".

If this is true, then I don't see a fascinating reason for such, the arms forces are also Nigerians so a Nigerian flag should represent all.

There are people whose loyalty is not to Nigeria but to their tribes, religion or political parties.

There are also those who for one of the reasons above will never see anything good in what Buhari does no matter how good or in our best interest. They are the set that even if Buhari walks on water like Jesus Christ they'll say it's because he cannot swim and why is he walking on that kind of water and not another kind.

Now, this displayed so well in the last address to the nation. Many haters of Buhari as usual came out with conspiracy theories.

A simple broadcast which is devoid of any mistakes couldn't be taken in good faith by these busybodies. The most surprising thing is their display of ignorance. Having nothing to fight Buhari with they resorted to claiming he is not in the country and that there is a foreign flag behind him.

Let me explain that flag.

That flag is the NIGERIAN DEFENCE FORCES FLAG. You see it hoisted at Federal Ministry of Defence. You see it during independence parade. You see it during handover from one Government to the other and you see it behind the Commander-in-Chiet of the Nigerian Armed Forces. If you look well it was behind Obasanjo, Yar'Adua and Jonathan during their tenures as President.

The Nigerian Defence Forces flag has three horizontal stripes of the same width: red, marine blue and cyan. It is used in a plain version, and also with two concentric circles in the centre containing the Nigerian Defence Force badge.

Flag with the badge:
There are two concentric circles covering the three stripes. The central circle is the big one with the badge of the Nigerian Defence Force:
A centred Cyan eagle with unfolded wings
And marking the center two black crossed swords
One blue anchor on the bottom.
One small red winged symbol on the top
Bordering the central circle, there is another concentric circle, formed by small white circles with a green background (National flag colours).

The plain Nigerian Defence Force flag flies at military barracks, all across the country, and they have their property walls painted in stripes with the same three colours.

The flag with the badge is less common, but it can be seen flying at "Ship House" housing the Ministry of Defence in Abuja

It looks like the tri-service flag, with colours representing, from top to bottom, the Army, Navy and Air Force.

Now there is the Commander in Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces flag

The flag of the Commander in Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces is a 1:2 horizontal tetracolor of red, black, white, and green.

The flag can be seen in a quite few on-line photos of the President settings, alongside the national flag.

There is Nigeria army and Nigeria armed forces.These are two different entities.Nigeria army uses the army HQ flag.The Nigeria Armed forces flag uses the multicoloured flag ,each colour representing different arms of the armed forces.
President and commander in chief.
