Nigerians React As Reps Asked To Rename Country ‘United African Republic’

The idea of United African Republic is from the deep hell of Escapism from the debt Nigeria is owning other countries.

Renaming the country United African Republic will not change anything! People just want security, light, good roads and a working economy! Is that too much to ask?
If these things can't be in place Nigeria can never be United! The name has Zero effect on the economy!

Must have thought United in the name makes the country rich. United African Republic (UAR) like the United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, United States. Lol. Someone spent weeks working on that idea. Probably even got a grant. Lol. I am tired.

The National Assembly's proposal of a change in name from 'Nigeria' to 'The United African Republic(UAR)' is cosmetic & hypocritical without corresponding efforts to engender true unity & the features of a republic in this country. Their priorities are indeed trifling & baffling.

When the Nigerian Government is under pressure, the ONLY solution for them is to change names of existing organizations instead of going back to the drawing board to restrategize #Unitedafricanrepublic

Even if you change Monkey name to Bill, him eyes go still dey for treetop.

The problem with Nigeria is not in its name. If we change it to United African Republic and still have the likes of Buhari and Malami in it, the thing wey dey cry go still dey cry
