You mean that the country was only founded as late as 1960?

Edit: "Nigeria won full independence in 1960, as a federation of three regions, each retaining a substantial measure of self-government."

OK, so it was a colony before.

and who are those people in the pic?
former nigerian presidents or something?:confused:
I would guess they were leaders for different divisions of the country and got united after the independance.

though the one in top right corner doesnt look like a leader.
Basically none looks like a leader, they do look like gang leaders though.

    Wrong on all counts. Those are carricatures of the nationals of the 6 broad divisions we have in the country.

    Thanks to all those who cared enough to notice this little thread. :kiss:
