Steemit Engagement Challenge S2W2 | Steem4Nigeria Contest | No place like home: Tell us why you prefer your country to any other country || by @predomina

Welcome everyone to my blog. Today I am so happy to write about the reason why I prefer my country Nigeria to any other country. There is indeed no place like home. Nigeria is my home and I am proud of it.

Nigeria got its independence in October 1960. The country has lived independently for about 62 years now. It is located in the western region of Africa. Nigeria has a title name I.e the Giant of Africa. The name was given to it because of the diversity in culture and its outstanding performance in the whole of Africa when it comes to games, peacekeeping and many more.

Nigeria is surrounded by many other countries like Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Benin. Due to how large the country is, it is then divided into geopolitical zones I.e about six of them namely South-West, South-East, South-South, North-West, North-East and the North Central.

Nigeria is made up of 3 major languages I.e Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba and it has other minor languages as well which make a total of about 500 languages in the country, ot has also bout 250 ethnic groups with 36 states and 774 local government areas. Nigeria we're colonized by Great Britain and that made our official language to be English.

In terms of politics, Nigeria is made of different political parties since it operates on a democratic system of government. The major parties present in the country even as they prepare for the election are APC, PDP, and Labour parties.

Nigeria has been recorded as one of the countries that have worked tirelessly in ensuring that they fight terrorism to the core. This past year Nigeria has recorded some victory when it comes to keeping leave and fighting terrorism. We go as far as assisting other countries like Liberia, Sudan etc.

The weather here in Nigeria is another thing that makes me love this very country. Here in Nigeria, the weather is very accommodating. Anyone from any part of the world can stay here in Nigeria without a problem. Most times you see the weather got and at the same time cold during the night.

The food here in Nigeria is one other thing that the Nigerians are blessed with. They have the best delicacy as far as food is concerned. When you eat a Nigerian person's food you will know that you have eaten good food. The food here is so rich and it's land of production is numerous.

Everything mentioned above is the reason why I prefer my country Nigeria to any other country. Nigerians have fought a lot of battles to combat terrorism, they have good weather conditions which can accommodate anyone around the world, and their food is the best in the entire world. "Who say him mama food no dey sweet"?

Indeed no place like home. I don't believe that I can be comfortable anywhere around the world apart from my country Nigeria. If today I am out of this country, I make sure I come back almost every week if the money is there because the food and weather in Nigeria alone can make you live for eternity.

I love Nigeria my country and I am so happy to be a Nigerian. I want to call on the following person to please come and read through my article and drop their valuable comments, @lhorgic, @ruthjoe, @goodybest and @dave-hanny.
