Answer: Nigeria
With more than 200 million citizens, Nigeria is the fifth most populous nation in the world. Even though that may seem like a lot of people, the country’s high death rates and short life expectancy would probably result in even higher population figures.
Nigeria is a country where many various religions are followed, but the majority of people are either Christians or Muslims.
The nation’s twin capital is the town of Igbo-Ora. Many of the local Yoruba people think their high likelihood of twin births is due to their diet of yams and okra leaves. There is no scientific proof for the theory advanced by certain reproductive specialists that some yams contain a natural hormone that may lead to repeated ovulation.
Nigeria is a multicultural nation with more than 520 languages spoken there. Although English is the country’s official language, Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo are also widely spoken.
Nigeria’s largest and most populous metropolis, Lagos, which served as the nation’s capital before it was relocated to Abuja, has been dubbed “Africa’s Big Apple” in allusion to New York City.
Nollywood, the name of the nation’s film industry, is the second-largest film producer in the world after Bollywood in India.
Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa, hails from Nigeria. Dangote’s $12 billion net worth is the result of his commercial ventures in salt, sugar, manufacturing, banking, agricultural, and banking.
