Flags, Coats Of Arms, Symbols And Monuments Of Nigerian States All Nigerian regions and territories had their own individual flags and symbols in 1960. This was also the case with the new states that were created in 1967. The state flags usually consisted of the Nigerian flag, with the state coat of arms in the middle of the flag. However, the Murtala regime (c1975) discouraged the use of state flags. This was at a time that the military regimes of the 1970s were moving us closer to a unitary system by taking over state and private owned newspapers, television stations and universities. States were instead encouraged to use the Nigerian coat of arms, placed in a circle with the name of the state around it, as their symbol. Some states (e.g. Lagos) resumed using their pre-1975 flags and coat of arms after the return to democracy in 1979. The return to democracy again in 1999 has emboldened more states to design new flags and symbols (eg Cross River, Osun and Bayelsa). Some states have resumed using their pre-1975 flags (eg Kano and Lagos), while some states still use their military era symbols (eg Adamawa). This thread contains flags, coats of arms, symbols and monuments of (1) Nigerian states (2) Nigeria (3) defunct states and regions of Nigeria (4) heads of state of Nigeria Section 4 (2) of the flags and coat of arms act is still in force. http://www.nigeria-law.org/FlagsAndCoatOfArmsAct.htm [img]http://naijachronicles.files./2018/08/22007968_1967586453498652_4305524316004449420_n.jpg?w=584[/img] [img]http://naijachronicles.files./2018/08/sports-festival-flags.png?w=584[/img] Flags of Nigerian states flying outside the Teslim Balogun Stadium during the 18th National Sports Festival in 2012. https://naijachronicles./2018/08/06/flags-coats-of-arms-symbols-and-monuments-of-nigerian-states/ 4 Likes 5 Shares |

The logo includes the shield which represents the corporate amour for law enforcement and protection of the state, the Cocoa House and the University of Ibadan which symbolize a state of many firsts and landmarks of intellectualism and development. It also includes a talking drum and beaded gourd which, according to the governor, celebrates the deep traditional root and rich cultural heritage of the state. According to Ajimobi, the galaxy of stars on the logo symbolizes the 33 local government areas of the state and the green fields, with a harvest of agricultural produce, while the last symbol stands for the arable land mass of the state. Governor Ajimobi, while unveiling the logo at the Executive Council Chambers of the Governor’s Office, shortly after the weekly state Executive Council Meeting, said it was a reflection of the cultural heritage of the state. According to him, the logo epitomizes the restoration, transformation and repositioning agenda of his administration that would take the state to greater heights.The governor also said that the logo would represent the new identity for the state through which the uniqueness of the state would be appreciated. He said that this was the first time that the state would have a logo of its own, pointing out that this had really confirmed it as “a pace setter state with a pace setting government.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGxwR54-2xU Oyo State flag [img]http://naijachronicles.files./2018/08/14906916_1810592059198093_325484402800719305_n.jpg?w=584[/img] Governor Ajimobi unveils the Oyo State logo.

Some people have advocated that it should be adopted as the coat of arms of Edo State. It has not been adopted by the Edo State Government. This coat of arms has elements that were taken from other coats of arms. The red eagle and the green and white band on which it rests are taken from the Nigerian coat of arms. The elephant on the right is taken from the Western Region coat of arms (Benin was once part of the Western Region), the leopard on the left is taken from the coat of arms of the Eastern Region (but this leopard is more menacing than the leopard in the Eastern Region coat of arms) and the motto at the base of the coat of arms which reads, “My God. My Right”, is taken from the British coat of arms (it is rendered in Latin, “Dieu et mon droit”, on the British coat of arms). The two swords (eben and ada) are royal swords from Bini culture.

The Akwa Ibom State Government held a competition in 2017 to select a new tourism brand identity logo for the state. This entry was selected as the winner. However many people have criticised the decision. The critics say that none of the elements of this logo represents Akwa Ibom State in any way.

An empty facial mask shows that a true identity is being revealed. Attached to the mask are feathers and the middle feather looks like a bird, which depicts longevity, wisdom and freedom. At the breast side of the bird are different coloured feathers which depict diversity. The touch of purple at the top side depicts luxury and beauty.
