Former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Deputy Governor, Kingsley Moghalu, has said the country needs a change of name in 2023.
He argued that the country’s name conjures too many bad memories.
His proposal, however, elicited a flurry of reactions especially from social media users.
Some argued that the country does not need a change of name but good leaders.
Others supported Moghalu’s proposal, and added that constitutional review and restructuring should also be overwhelming pushed forward.
Moghalu on his verified Twitter handle said: “I agree with those who argue that that Nigeria needs a change of name.
“If a serious leadership emerges in 2023 and we can agree on a name that has deep meaning that can unite the country, it would be a powerful symbolism. Backed with good governance,it can give Nigeria new life
“The name Nigeria conjures too many bad memories. ‘Wazobia’? ‘Songhai’?”
