Community Notification
Dear all,
I wish to inform you all about my proposed MES2021 Photographs project.
Thanks for your support.

James Moore200 (talk) 02:51, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
Nyanardsan came across this article earlier and mentioned it on Discord, which led to a discussion trying to figure out if the flag is actually real. None of the sources currently on the page are reliable, and the only source that goes beyond a bare assertion (the crwflags.com one) is talking about a different entity. The state website doesn't seem to have the flag, and the ministers' pictures all have just the Nigerian flag behind them.
A few questions for anyone who knows:
- Is the flag currently in the article real?
- If it's fake, does the state have a different flag or no flag?
- If it's real, is there some reliable source that shows or describes the flag?
