I was made to believe during my primary education that she derived the name from “Niger Area”. That she would refer to it as the people from the Niger Area and later summed it up to Nigeria.

they name has no issue they people in they country does ,

If it’s change the country should be devided

Now I see the reasons why there are many Olosho in this country🤔

Group of ogogoro men speaking from beer parlour

High time to do so

But her boyfriend and his friends gave some people their Religion, through which they clap,dance and single in her boyfriend's language and manner? How about that?

Olosho ooo😂😂😂

Change Name! Omo they done sell this country

It pity that many Nigerians don't know the history of their country and they still proud of One Nigeria that named by useless small white girl.

This is the idiocy bedevilling Africa a woman came from Europe and tell you today your name is Nigeria all of you started jumping up and down like a motor park tout no dignity

HURIWA should lead by example. They should stop using the English language as their means of communication. The same British brought us the English language.

MaziNnamdiKanu has been saying this but you zoo news reporters don’t respect him because he’s for the people

I hope they are not going to name it after Arabic county , moreso the country will soon cease to exist as one. So just calm down.

Spitting poppycocks out of their gutter

Hmmmmmm
