New country visiting Eff You!

I think we have a new visitor nation to welcome, but I'm just not sure. It is possible that I simply never mentioned this country before. Nonetheless, a search of the blog indicates that we have our first-ever visitor from Nigeria.

Of course, we have mentioned Nigeria on this blog before, because Nigeria is one of the search terms that the NSA looks for as it relentlessly searches without a warrant through America's emails. So, yes, having triggered that particular search term, I believe I'll trigger another: Yo, Clapper, blow me. James Clapper is the director of national intelligence and the guy who is in charge of the people who want to listen to your phone calls and read your emails, blog posts, Facebook stuff, Twitter, etc. I guess he has a dull life. So blow me, Jimmy. (You can almost hear the feds opening a file on me as I type.)

But we were talking about Nigeria. According to Wikipedia, the Federal Republic of Nigeria is:

a federal constitutional republic comprising 36 states and its Federal Capital Territory, Abuja. The country is located in West Africa and shares land borders with the Republic of Benin in the west, Chad and Cameroon in the east, and Niger in the north. Its coast in the south lies on the Gulf of Guinea on the Atlantic Ocean. There are over 500 ethnic groups in Nigeria, of which the three largest are the Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba.
The name Nigeria was taken from the Niger River running through the country. This name was coined by Flora Shaw[citation needed], who later married Baron Lugard, a British colonialadministrator, in the late 19th century. The British colonised Nigeria in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, setting up administrative structures and law while recognizing traditional chiefs. Nigeria became independent in 1960. Several years later, it had civil war as Biafra tried to establish independence. Military governments in times of crisis have alternated with democratically elected governments.
Nigeria, known as "the Giant of Africa", is the most populous country in Africa and the seventh most populous country in the world.[6] Nigeria is roughly divided in half between Christians, who mostly live in the South and central parts of the country, and Muslims, concentrated mostly in the north. A minority of the population practice traditional and local religions, including the Igbo and Yoruba religions. Its oil reserves have brought great revenues to the country. It is listed among the "Next Eleven" economies. Nigeria is a member of both the Commonwealth of Nations, and the African Union.

I don't know who or what the "Next Eleven" are, but, to Nigeria, welcome to Eff You Nation. Glad to have you, regardless of what Clapper thinks. Fuck him.
