The society is highly revered in Igbo land. Members wear ‘Ugo’ (Eagle) feather on their traditional cap. This shows that the members are the cream of society because the Eagle in Igbo land is seen as the most beautiful bird, therefore it is believed to be the cream of the bird kingdom, and hence members of the society are seen as the cream of society. Their white regalia show purity both in action, body, judgement and thought while the red cap in which the eagle feather is attached shows that through their suffering and shedding of their blood, their entire community and society grows and progresses. They are incorruptible in all ramifications and must display high morals and

That is its species. . . . . 

If you're trying to imply that these are not the same species of eagle then YOU must be the one joking.

All I saw was History of Ireland, France and Henry III. . . . no Nigeria.

ezeagu:
Look, all I'm saying is that Nigeria should have been original and should have used its history and culture for its symbols instead of predictably copying the United States.

ezeagu:
Well, the most important organisation Nigeria has is the EFCC and this is the only depiction of the Nigerian eagle:

Kobojunkie:
Well, at least you are not trying to present us the GBAJUE explanation as a FACT. 

That is another thing. It seems we didn't pick any particular eagle specie, we just picked EAGLE FOR STRENGTH!

But obviously, they copied the lion from Africa and India because these lions are thousands of years old. Then again they captured lions and put them into zoos. Now onto copying, the Lion is the symbol of strength in every culture, they also are not region or even continent specific and there are lions (modern ones) native to Greece. The people who created the three lions, the English, had possession of lions, When did Nigeria capture the bald eagle? Where in Africa is the bald eagle? What part of Nigerian culture, like the British culture (e.g 'Heart of a Lion' nickname for King Richard the I around 800 years ago), portrays the bald eagle?

Kobojunkie:
Actually, there is no problem with a country having non-indigenous species in it's coat of arms. England actually offers a very CONVINCING argument for the lions on there. However, in our case, we have a coat of arms and all we have is EAGLE REPRESENTS STRENGTH? lol

ezeagu:
Black tipped beak, auburn feathers. . . . .

ezeagu:
National symbol, A national symbol is used again such as the three lions of England. They depicted the Nigerian eagle, please don't tell me otherwise, got to http://www.efccnigeria.org/ to see what they used.

ezeagu:
I got my. . . oh wait that's a bald eagle, never mind!

ezeagu:
I got my. . . oh wait that's a bald eagle, never mind!

ezeagu:
No, it is a representation of the national bird. . . . . which is on the coat of arms.

ezeagu:
Found it!
