What's The Difference "Nigeria Police" And "Nigerian Airforce" by shadeyinka(m): 8:56am On Jan 12, 2020 |
I am not an English specialist neither is it my first language so pardon me for this seemingly elementary question. Why do we officially call the Police of Nigeria "Nigeria Police" while their Airforce counterpart is called " Nigerian Airforce". Nigeria vs Nigerian: why?

Maybe because a larger percentage of the Nigeria police are illiterates I mean we see them everyday displaying it right. On a more serious note I think it's only the federal government that can answer this. 1 Like |

Ok, let me tell you the difference, Nigeria as a country is useless but Nigerians are useful, so Ngeria Police Force stands for Useless Police Force, while Nigerian Air Force stands for Useful Air Force, but understand that not all Nigerians are useful like all those useless politicians stands for the bad eggs among the Nigerian Air Force. So that is their difference hope this helps? 4 Likes 1 Share |

Larryfest:I trust that some Nairalanders are police men. They may be able to help. It seems only them can rationalize the use of Nigeria rather than Nigerian |

Nigeria Police Force (former name) Nigeria Customs Service Nigerian Army Nigerian Airforce Nigerian Navy Nigeria Police (new name) Not so sure, but my guess think only "Nigeria" is used when there is a word after the MDA's name. Before the recent name change, olopa used to be referred to as Nigeria Police Force. Nigeria Police is probably a mistake during rebranding. Hence the disparity. 1 Like |

shadeyinka:Nigeria police is mainly for internal security, while air force and other force can operate outside Nigeria therefore foreigners will have to refer to them as Nigerian air force. |
Re: What's The Difference "Nigeria Police" And "Nigerian Airforce" by shadeyinka(m): 9:43pm On Jan 12, 2020 |
sevenhundred:Very logical answer. Would it then be right depending on context to refer to the Nigeria police as Nigerian Police if CNN is reporting about them for instance? |
