I hope you know your country well enough to answer these questions and claim yours.
1. How was the name Nigeria coined?? And by whom??
2. In what year did Nigeria gain her independence and from what nation??
3. What is the symbolic meaning of the Nigerian Coat of arms?
4. What is our motto??
Really easy questions and won’t take long to answer… I won’t disclose how the card would be given but it will be given before 4pm.
You don’t have to answer all, just answer what you can.
