Why Do Nigerians Call Nigeria "Fatherland" ? by PAGAN9JA(m): 3:37pm On Jan 12, 2013 |
Why do NIgerians call NIgeria "FatherLand" , when it is clearly the MOTHER that gives birth to its children. and we as children of the Soil, should call this land MotherLand, I know for a fact that Nazi Germany used to refer to its nation as FatherLand. just saying. .

You can choose whichever term that suits you even though countries are usually referred in feminine terms. Russia for a fact goes for "Mother". Many Countries too. |
