The House of Representatives’ Special Committee on Constitution Review on Wednesday, June 2, 2021, received a proposal to change Nigeria’s name to the United African Republic.
Adeleye Jokotoye, a tax consultant, had submitted the proposal to the South West Zonal Public Hearing committee in Lagos.

Reacting to this, Mercy Aigbe, in a post shared on her Instagram page, questioned if the current name is the problems troubling the country.
Mercy Aigbe, who also expressed anger at the Lawmakers, also asked if the name change will solve the country’s numerous problems.
