National Flag
The Nigerian National Flag is divided vertically into three equal parts. The central part is white, symbolizing peace and unity, and the two parts which are green, symbolize the nation's vast agricultural wealth.
Coat of arms
The Nigerian coat of arms features an eagle mounted on a black shield, which is trisected by two silvery wavy bands.
Two white chargers support the shield, and at its base is a wreath of coctus spectabilis flowers cast in the national colors of white and green. The black shield represents the fertile soil while the silvery bands denote the Niger and Benue Rivers, which form the main inland waterways in the country.
National Anthem
Arise, O compatriots,
Nigeria's call obey
To serve our fatherland
With love and strength and faith
The labor of our heroes past
Shall never be in vain
To serve with heart and might
One nation bound in freedom,
Peace and unity.
Oh God of creation,
Direct our noble cause
Guide our leaders right
Help our youths the truth to know
In love and honesty to grow
And living just and true
Great lofty heights attain
To build a nation where peace
And justice shall reign.
