Did you know...?

Nigeria is the seventh-most populous country in the world, home to more than 200 million people. While that may be a lot of people, population numbers would likely be even higher if it weren't for the country's high mortality rates and low life expectancy.

Over 500 different languages are spoken in the country, although english is the official language, some of the more popular ones are Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba.

There are more than 250 ethnic groups. As you already know, there are many different languages spoken here, which totally makes sense when you realize that there are over 250 ethnic groups with a distinct culture and traditions.
