Brief Introduction About my Country (Nigeria)

My country (Nigeria) is a country in West Africa and it is considered as the most populated country in Africa. The country (Nigeria) doesn't just have so many people living in it but it is multicultural because it has over 500 different languages spoken and the major ones are; Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba and English ( which serves as the official language in Nigeria).

My country comprises of 36 states and its capital city is in Abuja (the capital territory). Although, Lagos State is the largest city in my country. In every kingdom / country, there most always be a ruler. The president of Federal Republic of Nigeria is; Major-General, Muhammadu Buhari, he was democratically elected as the president of Nigeria in the year 2015 with Prof. Yemi Osinbajo who is the vice president.
Nigeria has more than 250 ethnic groups but three among them are the largest. They are;

• Yoruba ( Western part )
• Igbo ( Eastern part )
• Hausa ( Northern part )

In addition, Nigeria also made sure that there is freedom of religion and it has just two religion populations which are; Muslim and Christianity.
Christians are mostly seen in the southern part of Nigeria while Muslim are seen in the northern part. Although, those living in the eastern and western part of Nigeria are in the religion minority.

My country is also known for its richness in special delicacies. I love my country's foods, its taste and most importantly its uniqueness which attracts everyone. Nigeria has many delicious and tasty traditional meals. All the tribes in Nigeria has their special foods.

Nigeria is Home for Comedy Show ( Happiness Lives Here)
Comedy show is one of the thing that we do / watch to keep our body and soul together especially when we are passing through some difficulties in the country. In Nigeria, there is freedom to do many things so people make funny videos and share online so to lighten up those that are in a bad mood. This lifestyle has also help in reducing some worldly pressure on us.

Why I Prefer my Country, over other Countries

All the things mentioned above are top things I love about my country, although, there are other things I prefer my country for over other countries which are not listed.

No Place like Home: If you Eventually Leave your Country in Search of Greener Pastures, would you be Willing to Return back because of the Response in (3)?

Yes of course! I would gladly come back to my country because I have lived enough here in Nigeria and be comfortable with everything. However, it is also possible to adapt to another country's way of living but not that easy.
Foods, culture and social life ( fun way of living) will be the main reason why I would be willing to return back to Nigeria. We are already blessed with good things so I don't see what would stop me from returning home. I know that I will leave Nigeria some day (soon) to another country just to search for a greener pastures and for exploration purposes. This means that I would be willing to return back because of my love ones and also for the things I love / admire in Nigeria. Thank you!
I invite @patjewell, @eliany and @sikan-eyen to participate as well.
