After the merger of Russia's largest gas company with Nigeria's largest gas company, many are left scratching their heads over the name of the new company-- Nigaz. The name is meant to be an amalgamation of 'Nigeria' and 'Gazprom', pronounced 'nye-gaz', but if you can't see the problem with it, perhaps you haven't spent that much time on the internet.

From the Daily Mail: "One Nigerian in Lagos said: 'White people are making too much of this.

'As long as the Russians pay us, they can call it what they like.'" Okay then, what about TYRONE? Nigaz will soon be joining forces with other companies such as Western Oil & Gas, French Auto Gas and Denmark Associated Gas & Oil.
