House of Reps Receives Proposal To Change Nigeria’s Name To UAR
The Special Committee on Constitutional Review of the House of Representatives has received a proposal to rename Nigeria the United African Republic.
On Wednesday, June 2, 2021, Adeleye Jokotoye, a tax consultant, presented the recommendation to the committee during the South West Zonal Public Hearing in Lagos.
During his presentation, he stated that Nigeria’s existing name was imposed by its previous colonial owners and that it should be replaced.
He claimed that changing the country’s name would symbolise a new beginning both physically and psychologically.
“At this crossroads in our history, it is mandatory that we change our name to reflect a new beginning which will be ushered in with a new constitution,” he said.
Jokotoye stated Nigeria is made up of hundreds of ethnic groups that need to be united, which is why he chose the United African Republic.

He proposed that Nigeria change its name to United Alkebulan Republic (meaning: United Mother of Mankind Republic) as an alternative.
The tax expert also proposed constitutional modifications to reflect fiscal federalism, state or regional resource and taxation control, the elimination of the immunity clause, and a review of the Exclusive Legislative List.
