What are the great things that interest you about your country?

---

I love my country Nigeria, many things here are interesting. Here are the few things that interests me about Nigeria.

• Freedom of worship

Unlike in some other countries, Nigeria recognizes that each one has a right to choose which God to worship. Most Nigerians are either followers of Islam or Christianity. But there are also other religion that are practiced here.

• Language and culture diversity

In Nigeria, over 500 indegenous languages that are spoken throughout the country.
Nigeria is multicultural and these varieties are always fun for us.
Some of the major languages spoken is the Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa. English is the official language with which all Nigerians can reach a better communication.

• Resilience

I love Nigeria because of our people who always show resilience in everything. Despite the suffering and hardship that most of them face, they always get up to do something profitable for themselves without relying much on others or government.

• Weather climate

The weather climate of Nigeria is not extremely harsh, we have the rainy season and the dry season and none of these seasons go very extreme. When it's the rainy season the weather is usually cool but not too cold, and when it's dry season it's usually hot but not extremely hot.
One can easily adapt to any weather change in my country.

Also we are in lower risk of severe natural disasters.

• Lower disease rate

If there is a worldwide spread of a disease, Nigeria and many other African countries are usually in lower risk of it. We record lesser cases compared to other countries and we're usually the last set of people to contact it.

Also we are able to deal with simple sicknesses like the malaria and fever but this is what has out many to death in other countries.

• Highest rate of twin births

I'm very much fascinated by twins and Nigeria records the highest rate of twins birth. The joy of seing babies come out dual is really interesting and I can say I love my country for this.

Which of the things mentioned above do you prefer your country for, over other countries?

---

I prefer my country for its suitable weather climate, I've seen many from other countries complain that their weather is too cold and they have to live with it everyday till the end of that season.

It's hard for Nigeria to record severe natural disasters such as the earthquake, tornado, tsunami, etc. We are free from most of these and even if any disaster does occur, it will not be as severe as it happens in other countries.

No Place like home: If you eventually leave your country in search of greener pastures, would you be willing to come back because of your response in (3)

Absolutely yes. If I eventually travel to a different country, and any disaster occurs I will quickly go back to my country because there I know I will be safer.

There is more peace in my country and so It will be better to come back and live in my poor home country than to live in a different place where you have to be afraid everyday.

I'm super proud of Nigeria my home, admits every hardship we are still surviving and making ends meet.
We do not have the complaining spirit but we work hard to gain what we want.

Kudos to all Nigerians
