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.
