Nigeria has one of the largest Black populations in the world, with different ethnic backgrounds and amazing cultures, arts, and languages.

The three most popular languages are Yoruba, Hausa, and Igbo. Our traditional foods are delicious, and many foreigners who travel to our country request our local dishes, such as pounded yam with egusi soup, amala, fufu, porridge, and so on. All these foods have unique tastes and flavors that will make you crave them.

We have many talented individuals in Nigeria; some choose music, and two of them have won Grammy Awards, while others choose football as their career and play for international clubs such as Chelsea, Inter Milan, Leicester City, and so on. We have 36 states in Nigeria, including the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), and many of these states abound with different mineral resources. In fact, Nigeria is one of the major producers of crude oil worldwide.

Some of these mineral resources contribute to the economic development of our country, as well as to employment opportunities for young individuals in order to survive.

Some of these mineral resources that can be found in different states in Nigeria are described below:

• Limestone: This natural resource can be found in states like Ogun and Kogi. They are mainly used to produce cement that Nigerians use to build their houses.

• Gold: This is mainly used by local miners to produce jewellery, and this natural resource can be found in Nasarawa State.

• Lithium: plays an important role in producing electric car batteries as well as other useful technologies. It can also be found in Nasarawa State.

• Coal: This type of mineral resource is mainly used to generate power. This can also be found in Kogi State.

• Bitumen: This is also found in Kogi and Ondo States, mainly used for road construction within the cities of Nigeria.

• Oil and gas: This can be found in Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Abia, Imo, and Delta States. Presently its one of the vital resources that generate income to Nigeria government.

Additionally, mineral resources like zinc, talc, clay, kaolin, and other natural resources can also be found in this beautiful nation called Nigeria. We are the giant of Africa because most of these mineral resources contribute to our growth.

We have both government and private refineries, which we use to refine the petroleum products we operate our machines with, as well as to fuel our vehicles. We are rising day by day in the international market, engaging in various farm products, through which we export our agricultural products like cocoa to produce beverages.
