To celebrate Nigeria Independence Day - Nigeria's 52nd Birthday! - BattaBox headed over to the Nigerian diaspora in India to find out how much they remember about home.

We asked the Nigerians studying at Osmania University two things: "How old is Nigeria?" and "Can you sing the National Anthem?"

In his Independence anniversary speech, President Goodluck Jonathan stated his administration goals to battle against corruption, insecurity and electricity shortages.

"Many Nigerians have acknowledged that there has been a significant decline in the spate of security breaches," he said.

However, despite such claims, for security reasons the President broadcast his speech from Aso Rock with no anniversay celebrations in Eagle Square, Abuja.

"On this special day, I call on every Nigerian to remain steadfast, because our nation is indeed making progress. I call on every Nigerian to rediscover that special spirit that enables us to triumph over every adversity as a people," the President asked Nigerians.

The US President gave this congratulatory message to Nigerians on the 52nd anniversary:

"We value this partnership and remain dedicated to working together to meet the challenges of the future. On the 52nd anniversary of your independence, I wish all Nigerians a peaceful and prosperous year."

In India, as they celebrate Independence from afar, some of the guys have dressed in green & white and after some hesitation and help from their friends most remembered which Nigeria Independence Day it is..!

"Nigeria is as old as my dad!" shouts one guy.
