"NAIJA"
Didn't Lord Obasanjo tell us not to use that word in reference to Nigeria? It seems the team has adopted the word and are now using instead of Nigeria.
While I don't have any problem with the word on fans jerseys, I must say I did not like it on the official training jersey for the players. I want to see the word NIGERIA on our players jerseys, not NAIJA!
What do you think?

Two ways to look at it boss. On the one hand, I agree with no slang on the official kit, on the other hand, it's a play on hip culture, which if used properly can generate income to the national teams for years to come. On that front, I think its a welcome development.1naija wrote:Didn't Lord Obasanjo tell us not to use that word in reference to Nigeria?

Why don’t you read the idea behind having the word on the jersey before complaining. I tire for you guys.1naija wrote:Didn't Lord Obasanjo tell us not to use that word in reference to Nigeria? It seems the team has adopted the word and are now using instead of Nigeria.

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."

I also have reservations about Naija being on our official kits instead of Nigeria.
Would Nike put Blighty on England's official kit?

Re: "NAIJA"
I actually would prefer the name of the country be changed from NIGERIA to NAIJA. That would make it authentic than this "Niger Area" of a name!!

That for me is a huge warning. Also with the info that you provide, who is that going to?
See what info comes up when you google for hypeing.com reviews. I wouldn't sign up to the website.

Again, I have no problem with the "Naija" on fans kits, but it should not be the official representation of Nigeria, which is the case when it's on the players official Jersey. This was purely for Nike's benefit and shows that the Nigerian Government do not pay attention to things like this.

Brilliant piece, I've one complaint, but the filmmaker's taste in (real) Afrobeat and Afrofunk is impeccable
I taya for Nike, they did everything but make enough product (and make the warm-up jacket ) available. The employees that put this campaign together are too mush. As hesitant as I am to say it(before they think they can repeat this themselves with haphazard preparation), bravo to Pinnick and the NFF for having the courage to go along. God knows if this failed, he would have been dragged and seriously piece-ised.
