Yep, Nigeria is just an area of Niggers, who think and behave like dumb niggers. See another "president" abroad for 50+ days and no outcry-except by some in the Eastern and Middle belt areas. Shame that people are still "praying" for the coupist. Shameless people who deserve to suffer 9 Likes 1 Share |

This isn't even true, Tanzania combined the names Tanganyika and Zanzibar. Dahomey is not French it was a name of a kingdom. The Belgians didn't name it Zaire they named it the Congo. 2 Likes 1 Share |

RisingSun1: OPPORTUNISTS AND EMERGENCY 'BLACK NATIONALISTS'. You want to steal and corner the oil belonging to the whole country under the guise of ''self-determination''. Now you've discovered Pan-Africanism and Black nationalism. As chronic narcissists, these are nothing but TOOLS easily used and disposed of in advancement of your REAL, selfish interests. Black nationalists. Yet every week you carry placards in London and New York, and seek audience and alliance with western leaders, who routinely ignore you. You fool no one but yourselves with your silly shenanigans. 2 Likes |

RisingSun1: What I have to say about it goes thus; 1)You are not educated enough to understand the inspiration or circumstances that lead to national nomenclature. The national Anthem of the United states was inspired by a war effort so its unsurprising why you see words like Bombs, rockets in its lyrics. Nigeria was inspired by Geography. If you had any education, you will realise that the two last countries on the river Niger basin inspired their nomenclature. Nigeria and Niger republic with Niger a state in Nigeria. 2) You are too dumb to realise that the problems of Nigeria has nothing to do with its name or its origin. 3) Bight of Biafra was equally a Portugese nomenclature, transiting from a British Nigeria to a Portugese Biafra doesn't remove the shackles of your European masters, you are just too dumb to realise that. 4) it takes sound education to draw logical comparisons, that you lack, your pitiable condition has reduced you to a spanner in the hands of the London Lunatic. Take heart bro!! Now that you have gotten the basics, can you tell us where the name Igbo was derived from and what inspired it. You guys (IPOB) are embarrassing igbos with ignorance. This is the worst time to be a sane igbo man. 1 Like |

jpphilips:You are the most dumbest person I ever came across since this year. I nearly lost some IQ reading the crap u posted. I simply asked you what was your name before the white man came. You kept running around telling me how some white folks got inspiration to name you from Niger State. Nigeria came before Niger State. Niger Republic "Niger" pronounced as Nijee in French means dark or black. Niger in English means dark or black. Niger/Niga in Latin means dark or black They said Mongo Park discovered and named it River Niger. So the name of the two countries Nigeria and Niger Republic are not the indigenous names of Africans living there. So the question still remains What was your indigenous name before the white folks came from Europe to name you Nigeria? By the way Biafra is not Portuguese. Don't disgrace yourself the more. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

author=RisingSun1 post=58878087] You are the most dumbest person I ever came across since this year. I will take that as a complement. I simply asked you what was your name before the white man came. Were you a country before the White man arrived? I guess you don't even understand your question, not that it will do you any good learning something new, we existed as kingdoms not Country. You heard of the oyo Empire, bini kingdom and The Arochukwu dynasty right? that was what we were before the Brits arrived, since they amalgamated several dynasties and Kingdoms to form a country, it is common sense to derive its nomenclature from English, though inspired by Geography, it could have been inspired by culture, weather, tradition, belief, food, even conflict like the USA etc. You kept running around telling me how some white folks got inspiration to name you from Niger State. It is natural to be dumb, it takes laxity to have comprehension problems, go and read my post again. Niger Republic "Niger" pronounced as Nijee in French means dark or black. Niger republic became a French colony in 1922, who was there before the French? It is s!lly to show me only the French meaning of a country inhabited by the Romans and Egyptians before the arrival of the French. They said Mongo Park discovered and named it River Niger. An illiterate like you may not understand what "Discovery" meant in that context, it doesn't mean that your forefathers before Mungo park did not use the river neither does it mean that Mungo park used some magical wand to make the river appear. If you are from Anambra state, your forefathers assessed the Niger along the onitsha coast or Omambala basin, that was the much they knew of the river, it was mungo that followed the River Up north to Guinea through, Niger, Mali and down south to the Gulf of guinea, the credit of discovery went to Mungo not your forefather because your forefather before mungo had no clue where the river came from nor where it was headed, Mungo got the answers. Nnamdi kanu is a serial mind fvcker, it takes the right enlightenment to keep him where he belongs. i heard this nonsense you said from him first on radio biafra, i never knew there are dead brains like you that will fall for that cheap ignorance, take heart bro!! By the way Biafra is not Portuguese. Don't disgrace yourself the more. Biafra isn't Portuguese, what is it? I don't mind risking knowledge from a blockhead, I ask you again, what is Igbo and where was igbo as a word derived from? i wish you will answer it the same way I did yours. 1 Like |

jpphilips:WHICH PLANET IS THIS NITWIT FROM? 1) IF you have Oyo empire in yorubaland before the coming of the white man then that's your name.It doesn't matter if it's a Kingdom or a country. 2)Do u saw where I wrote "(They said) Mongo Park discovered River Niger" --- This is to show u my doubt for the so called discovery. Because our people in Anambra has been using the river thousands of years before the coming of Mongo Park.And we have indigenous name for the river.Not "River Niger" My point there was to show u that the first use of the Word "Niger" in west Africa came from a white man Mongo Park 3) You first said the name Biafra is Portuguese so the burden of proof is on you.So Prove your assertion by telling me what the word Biafra means in Portuguese and I will concede victory to you.
