With a population of almost 140 million people comprising of
over 250 ethnic groups, Nigeria is a blend of exciting cultural
diversity that has produced a land of unparalleled opportunities
with warm, friendly people. It is symbolic of our unity in
diversity that adherents of Christianity, Islam and traditional
animists co-exist, very often in the same families.
Located just above the equator with a coastline
stretching over 800 miles, Nigeria is one of the few countries
in the world where such ecosystems as the mangrove and rain
forests of the south, rich savannah plains in the middle and
brown sand dunes of the Sahara in north can be seen in a day.
Combine these with the mountain ranges, deep valleys and
hundreds of rivers, lakes and waterfalls that dot the country
and you have a tourist haven that is unspoiled and virtually
undiscovered. Adventure beckons at every turn.
Democratically governed and undergoing social and
economic reforms, the country is poised for growth and
development in every sector. With a rapidly expanding middle
class earning higher incomes, returns on investments in Nigeria
are among the highest in the world. The country is blessed with
vast natural resources and is home to some of the world’s
notable achievers in sciences, economics, business, sports,
entertainment, the arts and many more.
Nigeria offers a delightful microcosm of all you
might expect to see in a land which is home to every fifth
African and which is aptly described as the Heart of Africa.
Discover the sights, the sounds and the wonders of the country
here. Feel the throb of traditional drums; hear the thunder of
its many waterfalls; see the flush and fauna of its landscape
and feel the magnetism of it’s people. Welcome to Nigeria.
