Flag

This is the Nigerian Flag: Green and white. Green stands for agriculture which used to be the main source of income for Nigeria in the 70's and 80's. The white stands for peace and unity. The flag was designed by Taiwo Akinkumni, two years before Nigeria gained her independence, in 1958.

Arise, O compatriots,
Nigeria's call obey
To serve our fatherland
With love and strength and faith
The labor of our heroes past
Shall never be in vain
To serve with heart and might
One nation bound in freedom,
Peace and unity.

Oh God of creation,
Direct our noble cause
Guide our leaders right
Help our youth the truth to know
In love and honesty to grow
And living just and true
Great lofty heights attain
To build a nation where peace
And justice shall reign.

The National Anthem was written by Mr. Ben Odiase in 1978

Pledge
I pledge to Nigeria my country
To be faithful, loyal and honest
To serve Nigeria with all my strength
To defend her unity
And uphold her honor and glory
So help me God.

Special Thanks to Motherland Nigeria
