1. The five horizontal blue, green, and beige sections represent the various climates within Nigeria in relation to their geographical adjacency to each other. 2. The bottom teal section has a gold border to portray how this is the most population dense, as well as the most profitable region within the nation. 3. To the right is a banner of the Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company Limited Plc, large in size to represent how Nigeria has the largest and healthiest economy in all of Africa. 4. The centre of the flag contains a twelve-pointed star, representing the twelve main linguistic groups of Nigeria. This star is intersected by three blue lines, which represent the intersecting Niger and Benue rivers. 5. Above the bottom teal section are the symbols of Christianity and Islam, overlaying artefacts of the eight major indigenous religions found within Nigeria prior to the arrival of Christianity and Islam. 6. Overlaying the flag as usual is a custom Nigeria Postal Service packing sticker with a torn BIEC sticker, overlaid by a Nigerian postal stamp from 1975.
