Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, is a nation of striking contrasts and remarkable diversity. Home to over 250 distinct ethno-linguistic groups, its landscapes range from sandy beaches and tropical jungles to vast plains, rugged mountains, and deserts-- enough to captivate even the most adventurous explorers.

This updated edition of Culture Smart! Nigeria delves into the key historical events that have shaped the beliefs and attitudes that you will encounter, and offers insights into the traditions and rites of passage that you might experience and take part in as a visitor. There is advice on how to get around, how to socialize and communicate, and how to approach doing business. Familiarize yourself with the Nigerian way of life and your journey through this dynamic country will be deeply enriched.
