Reality TV star, Queen Atang captioned her photo:

There is no country in the world with the diversity, confidence, talent and black pride like Nigeria.
A nation is not defined by its borders or the boundaries of its land mass rather, a nation is defined by its collective people who have been unified by a cause and a value system.
A people who are committed to a vision for the type of society they wish to live in and to pass it on to the future generations to come.
Nigeria is ours! Our home, our pride, our heritage. We need to join hands together to make Nigeria better.
Join me Queen Mercy Atang as I put to practice my commitment to make Nigeria a greater Nation.
