PoliticsRe: New Name For Nigeria by WaZoBiaQueen: 1:52pm On Aug 04, 2014

Pronounced correctly it is Nig*eria : ( It's so shameful. We should have changed it at independence, all the other ex-colonies did. By continuing to use the term Nigeria, we are insulting ourselves and holding back or own progress.
