Is There Any Ingenuity In The Design Of Nigeria Flag. (akinkumi Over Celebrated) by Balkan(m): 4:03pm On Sep 30, 2014 |
Fellow Nairalanders is There any special or ingenuity in the design of Nigerian flag? a primary one child can put colors together and and give us a master piece. green has been a colour white too is a common color Past leaders who have refused to honor him know that that the man did not do a good job. He just put those two colors together and maybe he submted those colors the same day he was given the contract with know brain work. what do yo think. The Man Michael Taiwo Akinkumi was over celebrated in this award. too much media hype 2 Likes

But on an unbeefng note. Even before he was placed on life time salary, I always asked myself the same questiin, whats so special about the flags design? Its like telling me theres something special about a plain teru material. Because am a Nigerian does not mean illd overate our flag, Being honest cuts across sentiments and it dosnt mean im a bad citizen too. Just call a spade a spade The flags design is just basic. Nothing special 6 Likes |

It's a boring, uninspired flag. But take a look at this link where this guy lists out various country flags and rates them on a scale of 1 to 10. Nigeria got a 3/10 www.theodysseyexpedition.com/oddities/flags-of-the-world/laos-to-norway It's a fun read, nonetheless. 1 Like |

The Coat of Arms of Nigeria has a black shield with two white lines that form in a "Y" shape. The black shield represents Nigeria's fertile soil, while the two horses or chargers on each side represent dignity. The eagle represents strength, while the green and white bands on the top of the shield represent the rich soil. The red flowers at the base are Costus spectabilis, Nigeria's national flower. This flower was chosen for inclusion in the coat of arms as it is found all over Nigeria and also stand for the beauty of the nation. The white wavy pall represents the Niger and the Benue. On the banderole around the base is Nigeria's national motto since 1978: "Unity and Faith, Peace and Progress" (formerly "Peace, Unity, Freedom". Was designed by a Nigeria with no award. you see the ingenuity in that master peace 3 Likes

No disrespect to Mr Akinkunmi, the Nigerian flag is uninspiring, blad and just too simple to represent the complexity of our country. Am of the opinion that whoever designed the Nigerian flag and the Japanese flag is a very lazy artist/individual. The Op asked a legit question, who designed the coat of arm? I've never come across the name of the individual. |
