Good day lovely people. You are highly welcome. Take your seat as we enjoy this wonderful cruise. During this cruise, I will be telling you in details about my country in a way of promoting it as a contest organized by @abu78 I appreciate him a lot for this contest.

INTRODUCTION

A country can be seen as a geographical location dominated by people which could be of the same language or diverse languages but have a unifing factor which is their constitution.
Nigeria 🇳🇬 is a country in that light of definition. Nigeria 🇳🇬 is a country of diverse cultural believe system, tribes and diverse languages. There are over 1000 tribes in Nigeria 🇳🇬 but the common thing that binds us is the Constitution.
We have three major tribes in this nation which includes Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo.

Nigeria belongs to the west African continent and got her independence in 1st October, 1960, that is why every 1st of October is marked with a great celebration.

Nigeria is a very fertile land and we are highly industrious no wonder the colours in our flag, green white and green. Hardly a nation in the world you don't find a Nigeria 🇳🇬. This is a mark for agriculture and peace. A typical Nigerian 🇳🇬 promotes peace because it is in peaceful coexistence that we can be productive in our agricultural endeavours.

We have 36 states in my dear country Nigeria with Abuja as the capital territory and 774 local governments

Why I Cherish My Country

Every man have an origin, there is no one that falls from heaven. I cherish my nation because;

• Hardwork: Nigerians are not lazy, they are so hard working to the core. An average Nigerian is so innovative and believes so much in creativity, he believe that he can do all things and puts It in practice.

• Unique Atmospheric Condition: We experience every kind of weather condition but in very unique way that does not disrupt human activities.

• Food: The diverse cultural groups Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba have their special delicacies that they welcome you with on your visit to their region.

Special Things Why I Cherish Nigeria 🇳🇬

1. Nigerians are highly defensive. We believe that an injury to one is an injury to all so we strive to defend ourselves as much as possible. See Nigerians of different tribe in another country they behave as if they are of the same family, as the body has different parts but functions In unity so also my dear nation.
2. The diverse languages makes me love my nation too. Constitutionally, Nigeria adopted English as a common means of communication so no matter your tribe or language in national matters we use English.
3. My country have a lot of tourist features that will make a none Nigeria 🇳🇬 to desire to change his or her abode.
4. In Marriage, we intermarry ourselves your tribe and region notwithstanding. Practically I am from the Eastern part of the country but I married a man from the northern region(Hausa). You see, we see ourselves as one. Our common language at home is English and we learn our local languages too.
