I believe every country reserves the right to protect the use of the official name in any capacity anywhere in the world especially where the image is at stake.

While searching for a domain name for a project I tried to find out if abcnigeria.com was available and as a matter of fact it was already taken by someone.

I tried to visit the website and saw a live website developed for ZEL Custom Manufacturing, a company that manufacture guns.

Now, what on earth would the name Nigeria be doing on a domain name belonging to a gun manufacturing company that is based in Florida?

Maybe Nigeria means something other than the official name of a country in Africa.

I doubt if the ministry of information as a ministry will have the time to look into matters like this one when it has its hands full with domestic matters.

Nigeria as a country may not be living up to its potential, the government may not be providing its citizens with all the basic necessities of life, her citizens may be involved in crime (just like other citizens of other countries) but I dare say that as long as Nigeria remains the name of our country I find it objectionable for a gun manufacturing company in Florida, USA to be using the name Nigeria the way it is using it right now.

You may check out www.abcnigeria.com to see for yourself.
