Exactly 55 years ago, Nigeria got her independence from colonial rule. Since then, the party hasn’t stopped. We may not have our Utopia yet but we’re getting there. And it feels really good to be free, wouldn’t you agree?
Google joins in on the celebration with a beautiful Doodle. The Doodle is a creative rendition of the Nigerian coat of arms. In it, a “green white green” eagle is seen flying over the major Nigerian confluence – the point where rivers Niger and Benue both meet.
We have Doodler Robinson Wood to thank for such a lovely artistic impression. He also shared early sketches of the Doodle.
Happy Independence day!
