Health in Nigeria
Health care provision in Nigeria is a concurrent responsibility of the three tiers of government in the country.Private providers of health care have a visible role to play in health care delivery.
Rivers and Lakes of Nigeria
About two-thirds of Nigeria lies in the watershed of the Niger River, which empties in to the Atlantic at the Niger Delta, and its major tributaries: the Benue in the northeast, the Kaduna in the west, the Sokoto in the northwest, and the Anambra in the southeast.
Religion in Nigeria
Religious affiliation in Nigeria is strongly related to ethnicity, with rather distinct regional divisions between ethnic groups. The northern states, dominated by the Hausa and Fulani groups, are predominantly Muslim while the southern ethnic groups have a large number of Christians. In the southwest, there is no predominant religion.
