Hi everyone! I hope you like the new video. A note on one of the comments in the video: In the video I give the statistic that oil accounts for 40% of GDP and 80% of government revenue. Apparently this is too high, and the usual % of GDP is more like 10-18%, obviously depending on the price of oil. I'm looking into the source of the stat, but I suspect it's a very out-of-date number, and maybe the record highest % of GDP.
Nigerian has way more problems than things going for it
The nigeria is a beautiful country good country
Yess the thundrac vibz live on Nigeria country the is beautiful country
never knew that Nigeria had such unique beautiful landscapes!
i,m nigerian
Lagos is the smallest in the landscape but the most populous city in Nigeria.
in terms of what?, if you are in terms of states of the federation ; you're right but not of cities in Nigeria, the statement above is wrong.
@@yemifest1648 lol google is your mate
God Bless Nigeria and Africa
I cannot help but notice that, you pointed out only the problems of Nigeria. Perhaps you should do a part 2, highlighting the success of Nigeria. When you spoke of the old kingdoms, you omitted the Old Benin Empire. It it worthy of note that, the old Benin Empire was the last Kingdom in Nigeria to be defeated by the British. I will give you 6/10. Proudly Nigerian🇳🇬
The old Benin empire is the old Benin empire ,better focus on the recent successes which are in plenty don't you think
Which success? Nigeria has no success, stop deceiving yourself
@@stevenwilliams3015 and stop fooling yourself
@@icedheart610 he said the truth, If the World Bank’s income poverty threshold of $3.20 per day is used, Nigeria’s poverty rate is 71%, that's not something to be proud about
@@mauricio_ds2322 nobody is proud of that, while you guys celebrate the west for always showing you their good side where all you see about Nigeria is negative, USA you guys love so much owns more than Nigeria… Nigeria is bad but let’s also talk about the good and work for betterment, not negativity all the time, and if you don’t see any good or use in Nigeria you’re just blind of ignorantly stupid
Go on nigeria we are with you
Nigeria is the home 🏡 of afrobeats music. Nigeria 🇳🇬 is also music 🎼 /fashion capital of the African continent.
I see as a Nigerian I will score you 92% of all 100% you did well I was also learning from you cheers bro what you said regarding the insecurity is exactly how we want big media to explain to the world
I loved your video, balanced, fair and informative--typical of Canadians. A breath of fresh air from all the negative western press against our amazing continent!
Thank you, Marcus! I do my best to be objective about every country I talk about.
Nigerians has entrepreneurs spirit and their drive for success cannot be matched with any other group in the whole world.
@Richdragon it’s fax
Nope. An apartheid Country. Is simply a geographical location 👌
Nigerians and bragging. Y'all look funny doing this
Wow, all this time I thought Sweden was larger than Nigeria and that Spain was the same size as Nigeria. Also, is there really a “Nollywood” sign in Nigeria? Great video as always Paul and keep up the great work!
Thanks! Yeah, mercator projection is mind-blowing when you first learn about it.
No, the "Nollywood" sign isn't real. We took the Hollywood sign and adapted it for the video. :)
having a good old globe or using different projections is very useful to understand the geographical challenges over the world. I remember an old book presenting the Cold War with a polar projection, as a teenager it was mindblowing.
@@PainterVierax That’s pretty cool. It makes sense that the would use a polar projection for the Cold War since the two superpowers at the time were the United States of America and Soviet Union.
Nigeria is way bigger than shown on the maps as he said. It takes days to travel by road from the South to the North and hours by air.
It's so diverse too with so many different cultures, languages, way of life that moving from one part to the other is like being in a different country.
In a way, they are different 'countries' cos pre colonial times, today's Nigeria was made up of different kngdoms, empires and states that were lumped together by the British into one big country, hence the diversity and sometimes friction
@@blackcoraltv6787 we’d be the best if we could overcome those differences

Great video. Of course I loved the discussion of the languages of Nigeria.
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that. That's probably the part a lot of Langfocus fans wait for.
@@GEOfocusChannel And now I want to learn more about those languages.
Un vídeo muy interesante, como todos los que hasta ahora tienes publicados. Gracias. 👍
Thank you, sir!
Thanks! However, as a Nigerian, I am not impressed with most of your pictures you showcased. You should have also showcased the great natural views and structures to show the level of physical development which we are very proud of. Thank you!
Well, there are very few stock images available for Nigeria compared to most other countries, so I have very limited selection of images to choose from. I can't just use any image I find on the internet; I have to find stock images and properly license them. I always do the best I can, and I did in this video.
@@GEOfocusChannel Interesting. I used to think you can use images you find on the internet. As long as you share the source or add copyright etc. Showing it's not yours etc.
@@dvchel Well, you can, but someone might sue you, and it could be a big licensing company that sues you. Sometimes people might be happy if you use their image and give them credit (for example an image of their shop or product, because they get some free promotion), but it's a risk (unless you get their permission).
Still ain’t wrong. It looks like a war torn country
l always enjoy all the pictures!
Great video and you gained a neww subscriber today. Addit, I'm subscribing your Langfocus Channel. It seems that all you do is great work and makes me subscribe to it :-)

Is now the 6th most populous country surpassing Brazil, and very soon will be the 5th one. Nigeria has a higher birth rate than the countries with more population than them, and Pakistan (the 5th now) has a mininal difference in population (they surpassed Brazil little time ago too). Nigeria is an universe inself.
I’ve seen projections that just Lagos could have a population of up to 100 million by 2100. I can’t quite comprehend that.
I don’t think it will get quite that big, but it will be multiples of what it is now.
@@GEOfocusChannel you are not far from the truth...Lagos is the smallest state in Nigeria by landmass, very small indeed, but still the most populated...For over a decade now, some real estate buffs have been creating man made islands along our coastlines, to make more room for investments and contain population explosion. The only alternative is for other states, especially Ogun state, which is the neighboring state to Lagos, to develop fast and relieve Lagos from imploding from within...unless that is done, i foresee a serious issue ahead.
@@efemzyekun900 Man made islands in Nigeria?!
Wow! I never heard about that.
Well, it means for me that, Nigerians are really big enterpreneurs!
And the fact that the government moved the country capital from Lagos to Abuja is an indicator they are trying to diminish Lagos population increasing (and also make the center of the country politically more important, aren't they?
Salute from São Paulo, Brazil.
@@eduardocajias5626 yes, the very first successful man made island were Victoria Island, done during colonial era, the Banana Island, worth billions of dollars per a few square meter, owned by an indigenous Nigerian entrepreneur. We also have by far the biggest man made island, which is the now completed Eko Atlantic City, then the newly inaugurated Island, known as the Ocean city Lagos. All these are humongous and extremely valuable real estates, being created to provide more space for Lagos and her economic growth. Below are some links for your view:

2. *czcams.com/video/VoivUiPNZKw/video.html** (Eko Atlantic City).*
3. *czcams.com/video/EuFjcfrSkUs/video.html** (Banana Island).*
You can also do some research on all the above on your own. Thanks
Doesn’t make it great. Large populations is stupid.
Nigeria had a population less than the uk during their independence and now more than 2 times? That’s just stupid and unplanned.
Lack of population control, lack of proper development.
Nigeria has a fantastic music scene as well, I'd highly recommend checking out Fela Kuti, and the genre of Highlife
What does Fella have to do with highlife?
Is it true that the lenght of the songs are of 15 to 30 minutes?
@@ihunnawisdom2376 fela didn't make highlife, but it's from west africa as well
@@Alfredo78666 a lot of them are very long yes. Not all afrobeat artists write songs like that though, it was more of a fela kuti thing

Nice videos for my Nigeria's
I'm always interested in learning about another country. I especially liked the languages portion. I just find languages so fascinating.
Iam Kenyan but Nigerians have sell African brands in music and culture.
Nigeria is an amazing country, and what I've seen of it the people are very enterprising. Maybe I'm wrong, but one of the main things which seems to hold the country back from success is government corruption. That's a shame, but I wonder what can be done to change that? Thanks for the video by the way, as usual with all of your videos, entertaining and informative!
Thanks for your observations. Nigerian ART 360degrees. =NIGERIA. Long live federal Republic of NIGERIA.
I love Nigeria and its people. Their music is fantastic and many of the films can be really funny and entertaining. Please, do a programme on the Igbo language, it's very musical, as it's a tonal language.
Real Estates, Crypto and Music Industry was omitted however great presentation 👍👏

Minor thing on the borders corresponding: The actual first time this occurred was 1 June 1961. After WW1 Cameroon was ruled under a League of Nations mandate under which France controlled most of modern day Cameroon and Britain controlled a thin strip of land to the Northwest which they administered as "Northern Cameroons" and "Southern Cameroons". In 1 January 1960, French Cameroon got its independence. Nigeria acquired its independence in 1 October 1960 and a plebiscite was held on 11 February 1961 to determine the fate of the Cameroons. The north voted to join Nigeria and was annexed on 1 June, and the south voted to join Cameroon and was annexed on 1 October.
I also wasn't aware of this for a long time because it looks roughly the same shape on older maps, but a key difference is that before WW1 Nigeria was "thinner" and its border with Kamerun was a straight line for the most part, whereas modern Nigeria's boundary is more natural.
Fair enough. Thanks for adding that. I guess I could have said "More or less corresponding to" or "borders similar to", etc.
@@GEOfocusChannel Still great to have your videos as a baseline as always. Nigeria's size, diversity, and importance, are really significant to get across.
Thanks for the video … but, you should make a part 2 of this video highlighting the success and beauty of Nigeria…
We are good people but the system of government due to corrupt leaders made us looks like a poor country… whatever people say about Nigeria 🇳🇬… I love my country Nigeria and hope for a better tomorrow…
You always blame your government as if it the government that sends people to misbehave in foreign counties
@@saint.m621 … did you even read the comment before replying??? I don’t think so !
Before the video, I know that Nigeria have many ethnical groups, like Igbo and Yoruba (in Brazil, my motherland, Yoruba was a important ethnical group cause the slavery period). I still wanna to travel to Lagos or Abuja someday. Travel to your neighboor countries as well (Ghana, Togo, Benin, Senegal) to see what´s like.
I love you Nigeria 🇳🇬 ❤❤❤❤
first thing i think bout when i see this country is the sokoto caliphate
and some memes from the movies in nollywood
Proudly 🇳🇬
Damn i didnt know filmaking is a huge thing over there, its nice to hear that from Indo, where film industry had just recently boomed and modernized here
Yeah, the film industry in India is huge too!
Didn't know this either! Also didn't know about the oil
@@inmyworldkindagirl there is a whole lot you don't know about Nigeria and Africa at large ..You must rely on CNN, BBC or Sky cable networks, to know about us. They've been lying to you, in broad daylight...trust me.
Yeah. 2nd biggest movie producing nation worldwide, biggest oil producer in Africa, 7th in the world. ...Nigeria is big in many ways, reason it's called the giant of Africa
@@nigerdeltamirrortv9311 Also biggest economy in Africa.

You're doing well my brother.
Good research
Thank you, sir!
what i know about nigeria are
(1) Things Fall Apart - Chinua Achebe....in 1977, this book was one of the my form 4 english literature class (i am from sarawak, malaysia)
(2) akeem olajuwon is Yoruba and is from nigeria
I am also a fan of Hakeem Olajuwon. He inspired me
✅✅🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
Things fall apart it's a fantastic book. I recommend it to anyone who likes good literature.
we need political revolution in Nigeria
In Peru the film industry/celebrity world is called "Chollywood" From "Cholo" and "Hollywood". "Cholo" being a word that tbh deserves its own video as has widely different meanings across Latin America and in peru in particular can be used as derogatory term but also one of affection. Can be used with Pride but also with shame.
Interesting. In the US, "cholo" refers to Mexican gang members.
@@GEOfocusChannel I know, its very jarring. In South America can mean, "mixed race' or even fully indigenous but also stuff like low class/tacky/ignorant "cholada" being the noun form. BUT can also be used with pride or as a term of endearment/nickname so its very context dependent, there is a whole documentary on the word in CZcams
Answer: I knew about the languages because it's also a passion for me. I didn't know as many details, about the size of the country and how much the population had grown in 30 years.
All you said are facts, even though u speak about positivity and negativity of the country, Nigerians are full of potential and ability to forge ahead

Am an Nigeria for the south south part of Nigeria my laungage is Ibibio and efik I want to talk about the Ibibio and efik people and their culture
Nice video. I would like to ask: Which language is most spoken in the capital city of Abuja and in the other main city of Lagos?
Mostly English because they are both large cities and English is needed for inter-ethnic communication
In Lagos the most widely spoken national language is Yoruba, if I understand correctly. But because people move there from all over the country, lots of languages are spoken, and the lingua franca is normally Nigerian Pidgin English.
Abuja is even more mixed, since it’s a recently built planned city, so almost its whole population came there from somewhere else. Like in Lagos, the most common language of the streets is Nigerian Pidgin English.
My knowledge is second-hand, though. If any Nigerians want to comment or clarify, go ahead! 🙂
Edit: Oh, I see that Retruth replied before I did.
@@retruthdecliesny4435 thanks
@@GEOfocusChannel Thanks. Do you think you'll do a language profile on yoruba, hausa or igbo anytime soon on your other channel?
I'm a fan of both langfocus and geofocus so thanks again for this educational content. Best wishes and hope you keep it up 👍
I hope to do them, but I’m not sure when it will be. Langfocus videos are huge projects and I have to struggle to get them done in a reasonable amount of time, which means I end up pushing back the topics that are harder to research. It can be quite hard to find sufficient materials for languages of Africa, and it’s hard to find people who are willing to help with the recordings and have good enough recording equipment.

Absolutely perfect and educational!! Thank you Paul!
Thanks, Inez! I appreciate the kind words. :)
Is there a specific order you are doing this in? Or just the ones you want to do?
I made the list of topics and decided the order based on what I want to do, but with a balance of different continents and regions, and with a balance between topics with more potential popularity and those with less. I'm hoping that keeps as many people engaged as possible. If I focus on a specific region for several videos in a row, people might stop watching when that series is over. And if I do all the big topics first, people will stop watching when I get to the smaller topics. And if I do them in alphabetical order, I'll be doing what another channel is already known for.
Great Content. Do an episode on Kenya.
Thanks! I will do Kenya sometime, maybe later this year.
I did not know much about Nigeria apart from the fact that once my bank account was cleared and all the funds were transferred to Nigeria. So I guess they have very skillfull IT specialist there :)

Great Video with Facts. However I would have loved better pictures of the country. Most of the pictures used do not represent the actual beauty of some of the areas stated.
Unfortunately the selection of stock images from Nigeria is very limited. There aren’t many photographers taking professional photos in Nigeria and selling licenses for them through stock image services. I wish I had a much bigger selection to choose from.
Wow good job for bieng the 6st in the world
Excellent video but devastated by the lack of concern for the environment especially the Niger delta. This had the only unique type of ecology of its kind in the world with its mangrove vegetation large numbers of hippopotamuses, rhinos, leopards, crocodiles, gorillas, chimps, monkeys and forest elephants, unique birds, and butterflies that were studied here for centuries. The international oil companies drove those animals into extinction by destroying their natural habitats and polluting the rivers and creeks.. the peoples lives of fishing and faring but alas there’s nothing left to fish and the farmlands have been destroyed or taking over for oil exploration to fuel the cars and factories of the West.
I think that might be a topic for separate dedicated video at some point. Country profiles like this are quite general and condensed, so every section is thin on details.
