Nigeria

Naijeriya, mwalamulo Wupu wa Charu cha Nigeria, ntcharu icho chili ku West Africa. Charu ichi chili pakati pa nyanja ya Sahel kumpoto na Gulf of Guinea kumwera. Charu ichi chili na malo ghakukwana 923,769 square kilometres (356,669 sq mi), ndipo chili na ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 230 million. Charu cha Nigeria chili kumpoto na Niger, kumpoto na kumafumiro gha dazi na Chad, kumafumiro gha dazi na Cameroon, ndipo kumanjiliro gha dazi na Benin. Charu cha Nigeria chili na vigaŵa 36 na chigaŵa cha Federal Capital Territory. Msumba ukuru comene wa ku Nigeria ni Lagos, uwo ni msumba ukuru comene pa caru cose ndiposo waciŵiri mu Africa.

Ku Nigeria kukaŵa vyaru vinandi ivyo vikaŵako pambere charu chindambe kuwusa. Boma la mazuŵa ghano ili likaŵako mu vyaka vya m'ma 1800 apo Britain likakolerana na charu cha Nigeria. Ŵanalume ŵa ku Britain ŵakambiska maboma gha ku Nigeria ndipo ŵakamba kulamulira mwauryarya.Pa Okutobala 1, 1960, charu cha Nigeria chikaŵa paubwezi. Kufuma mu 1967 m'paka mu 1970, charu ichi chikaŵa na nkhondo ya pawenenawene. Chisankho cha 2015 chikaŵa chakwamba kuti purezidenti uyo walipo watondeke kuwuskika.

Ku Nigeria kuli mitundu yakupambanapambana, ndipo kuli mafuko ghakujumpha 250.Mtundu ukuru chomene ni wa Hausa kumpoto, Yoruba kumanjiliro gha dazi, na Igbo kumafumiro gha dazi. Chiyowoyero cha boma ni Cingelezi, ico cikusoleka kuti paŵe umoza wa viyowoyero pa caru cose. Dango la Nigeria likupeleka wanangwa wa kusopa, ndipo mu charu ichi ndimo muli Ŵasilamu na Ŵakhristu ŵanandi. Charu cha Nigeria chili kugaŵika pakati pa Ŵasilamu awo ŵakukhala kumpoto na Ŵakhristu awo ŵakukhala kumwera.

Nigeria ni boma la ku Africa ndipo lili na mazaza ghapakati na ghapachanya pa nkhani za caru cose. Charu cha Nigeria chili na chuma chikuru chomene mu Africa, ndipo ni cha nambara 31 pa charu chose. Boma la Nigeria likucemeka kuti Giant of Africa cifukwa ca unandi wa ŵanthu na cuma cake. Ndipouli, charu ichi chili pasi chomene pa vyaru ivyo vili na vimbundi chomene pa charu chose. Nigeria ni chalo icho chili kukhazikiska African Union ndipo chili mu wupu wa United Nations, Commonwealth of Nations, NAM, Economic Community of West African States, Organisation of Islamic Cooperation na OPEC. Kweniso nchigaŵa ca MINT, ndipo nchimoza mwa vyaru 11 ivyo vikulondezgapo.

 Kwiza kwa zina 

Zina lakuti Nigeria lili kufuma ku zina la Mlonga wa Niger. Zina ili likapangika pa Janyuwale 8, 1897, na mulembi wa nyuzipepara wa ku Britain, Flora Shaw. Charu cha Niger icho chili pafupi na charu ichi, chili na zina ili. Zina lakuti Niger, ilo pakwamba likang'anamuranga chigaŵa chapakati pera cha Mlonga wa Niger, likamanyikwa makora yayi. Lizgu ili likwenera kuti lili kufuma ku lizgu lakuti egerew n-igerewen ilo ŵanthu ŵa ku Tuareg ŵakagwiliskiranga ntchito mu chigaŵa chapakati cha mlonga uwo ukazingilizga Timbuktu pambere ŵandambe kulamulira charu cha Europe mu vyaka vya m'ma 1800.The Arabic name nahr al-anhur is a direct translation of the Tuareg.

Buku la Kano Chronicle likulongosora mbiri yakale ya tawuni ya Kano iyo yikaŵa mu chigaŵa cha Hausa Sahelian, m'ma 999, kweniso misumba yinyake yikuru ya Hausa (panji Hausa Bakwai) ya Daura, Hadeija, Kano, Katsina, Zazzau, Rano, na Gobir. Apo chisopa cha Chisilamu chikamba kuthandazgika mu vyaka vya m'ma 700 C.E., chigaŵa ichi chikachemekanga kuti Sudan panji Bilad Al Sudan. Pakuti ŵanthu aŵa ŵakakhalanga ku chigaŵa cha kumpoto kwa Africa, ŵakamba kuchita malonda mu charu cha Sahara, ndipo awo ŵakayowoyanga Chiarabu ŵakaŵachemanga kuti Al-Sudan (kung'anamura "Ŵachikuda"). Ŵasayansi ŵa mdauko wa Ŵarabu na Ŵasilamu ŵakuyowoyapo vya ufumu wa Kanem-Bornu.

Ufumu wa Nri wa ŵanthu ŵa ku Igbo ukakhazikika mu vyaka vya m'ma 1000 ndipo ukalutilira m'paka apo ukafwira mu mawoko gha Ŵanung'una mu 1911. Nri wakawusikanga na Eze Nri, ndipo msumba wa Nri ndiwo ukuwoneka kuti ndiwo ukaŵa wakwamba wa ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Igbo. Nri na Aguleri, uko kuli nthano ya kulenga ya Ŵaigbo, ni vigaŵa vya fuko la Umeuri. Ŵanthu ŵa mu mbumba iyi ŵali kufuma ku fuko la Eri. Mu vyaru vya kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Africa, vinthu vyakale chomene ivyo ŵakavipanganga na minofu vikafuma ku Igbo-Ukwu, msumba uwo ukaŵa pasi pa mazaza gha Nri.

Ufumu wa Yoruba wa Ife na Oyo, uwo ukaŵa kumwera kwa Nigeria, ukaŵa wankhongono comene mu vyaka vya m'ma 1200 na 1400. Vinthu vyakale chomene ivyo vikulongora kuti ŵanthu ŵakakhalanga mu msumba wa Ife ni vya m'ma 900 C.E. Vinthu ivi ni vithuzithuzi vya terracotta na vya mkuŵa.

 Nyengo iyo ŵanthu ŵakakhalanga mu vyaru vinyake pambere ŵandambe kuwusa  (1500–1850) 

Mu vyaka vya m'ma 1500 C.E., ŵanthu ŵa ku Portugal ndiwo ŵakamba kuchita malonda na ŵanthu ŵa kumwera kwa Nigeria. Ŵanthu ŵa ku Europe ŵakaguliskanga vinthu na ŵanthu ŵa mumphepete mwa nyanja.Ku Calabar uko kukaŵa dowoko la ku Biafra (uko sono kukuchemeka Bonny) ndiko kukaŵa malo ghakurughakuru ghakuguliskako ŵazga ku West Africa.

Kufika pa nyengo iyi, ŵanthu ŵa mtundu wa Fulani ŵakendanga mu chipalamba cha Saheli kumpoto kwa Sudan na viŵeto vyawo. Kukwambilira kwa vyaka vya m'ma 1800, Usman dan Fodio wakadangilira nkhondo yakususkana na maufumu gha Hausa. Ufumu uwu, uwo chiyowoyero chake chikaŵa Chiarabic, ukakura mwaluŵiro apo iyo na mphapu yake ŵakalongozganga.

Ufumu uwu ukakolerananga kumafumiro gha dazi na kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa charu cha Sudan, ndipo ukambukira kumwera na kuthereska vigaŵa vinyake vya Ufumu wa Oyo (uno ni Kwara). Chigaŵa icho ufumu uwu ukalamuliranga chikaŵa kumpoto na pakati pa Nigeria. Fumu yikatumanga mafumu kuti ghazakalamulire vigaŵa ivyo yikapoka na kukhozgera chisopa cha Cisilamu. Kuzakafika mu ma 1890, ŵazga ŵanandi comene pa caru, pafupifupi mamiliyoni ghaŵiri, ŵakaŵa mu vigaŵa vya ufumu wa Sokoto. Ŵanthu ŵakagwiliskiranga ntchito ŵazga, chomenechomene pa ulimi.

Chifukwa cha kusintha kwa malango (kukanizgika kwa malonda gha ŵazga mu nyanja ya Atlantic mu 1807) kweniso chifukwa cha suzgo la vyachuma (kukhumba kuti vinthu visinthe pa ndyali na pa umoyo wa ŵanthu), ŵamazaza ŵanandi ŵa ku Europe ŵakamba kulima chomene vyakurya nga ni makuni gha maolive. Makampani gha ku Europe ghakagwiranga nchito ya kuguliska ŵazga mu nyanja ya Atlantic m'paka mu 1807 apo boma la Britain likakanizga. Para boma lakanizga kuguliska ŵazga, ŵanthu ŵakalutilira kuguliska ŵazga. Gulu la ŵasilikari ŵa ku Britain la ku West Africa likakhumbanga kukora ŵanthu awo ŵakaguliskanga vinthu mu nyanja. Ŵazga awo ŵakaponoskeka ŵakaŵatolera ku Freetown, malo agho ghakaŵa ku West Africa, agho Litanenti John Clarkson ndiyo wakazenga.

 Ukoloni wa Britain (1850-1960) 

Boma la Britain likachitapo kanthu pa nkhondo ya ufumu wa Lagos mwa kuwukira boma la Lagos mu 1851, kuwuskapo Oba Kosoko uyo wakatemwanga chomene malonda gha ŵazga, kovwira kuti ŵaŵe na boma la Oba Akitoye na kusazga phangano pakati pa Britain na Lagos pa 1 January 1852. Mu Ogasiti 1861, boma la Britain likapoka msumba wa Lagos kuŵa wake. Ŵamishonale ŵa ku Britain ŵakasazgirako uteŵeti wawo ndipo ŵakalutanga ku vyaru vinyake. Mu 1864, Samuel Ajayi Crowther wakaŵa bishopu wakwamba wa ku Africa wa mpingo wa Anglican.Peterson, Derek R., ed., Abolitionism and imperialism in Britain, Africa, and the Atlantic (Ohio University Press, 2010).
Mu 1885, pa ungano uwo ukachitikira ku Berlin, ŵamitundu ŵanyake ŵa ku Europe ŵakamanya kuti Britain njumoza wa vyaru ivyo vili na mazaza ku West Africa. Chaka chakulondezgapo, likapeleka katundu wake ku kampani yinyake yakuchemeka Royal Niger Company, iyo yikalongozgekanga na Sir George Taubman Goldie. Kuumaliro wa vyaka vya m'ma 1800 na kukwambilira kwa vyaka vya m'ma 1900, kampani iyi yikatonda kuthereska maufumu gha kumwera agho ghakaŵa ku chigaŵa cha Mlonga wa Niger. Boma la Britain likamba kulamulira chigaŵa cha Niger chifukwa cha kuthereskeka kwa maboma agha. Mu 1900, boma la Britain likamba kulamulira chigaŵa ichi ndipo likakhazikiska boma la Southern Nigeria Protectorate.

Kuzakafika mu 1902, ŵasilikari ŵa ku Britain ŵakamba kunozgekera kuti ŵalute kumpoto ku Sokoto. Ofesi ya Colonial Office yikapeleka mulimo kwa mulara wa ŵasilikari ŵa Britain, Frederick Lugard, kuti wafiske ivyo ŵakakhumbanga. Lugard wakagwiliskira nchito mphindano pakati pa ma emirs ghanandi agho ghakaŵa kumwera kwa caliphate na boma la Sokoto kuti waleke kuvikilira msumba uwu. Apo ŵasilikari ŵa Britain ŵakasendeleranga ku msumba wa Sokoto, Sultan Muhammadu Attahiru I wakanozga vyakuti ŵasilikari ŵa boma la Britain ŵavikilire msumba uwu.

Babangida wakapona apo boma la Nigeria likayezga kutimbanizga boma mu 1990, ndipo wakalekera papo yayi kuti ŵanthu ŵawelere ku demokilase mu 1992.

Wakazomerezga kuti maboma gha vyaru viŵiri ghaŵepo, ndipo wakambiska ndondomeko ya vyaru viŵiri pamoza na Social Democratic Party na National Republican Convention pambere vyalo viŵiri ivi vindasankhike mu 1992. Wakachiska ŵanthu wose ŵa ku Nigeria kuti ŵanjire chipani chilichose, icho Mulara Bola Ige wakati ni "mawoko ghaŵiri gha wavyoni". Boma la vyaru viŵiri likaŵa fundo ya Political Bureau. Pamanyuma pa kupenda ŵanthu, wupu wa National Electoral Commission (NEC) ukati pa 24 January 1992, mavoti gha Ndondomeko iyi yikayowoya kuti munthu waliyose uyo wakukhumba kunjira usilikari wakeneranga kuzomera mauteŵeti ghose agho boma likukhumba.

Pa Juni 12, 1993, kukacitika mavoti gha pulezidenti. Chiwerengero cha mavoti, ngakhale kuti sichikudziwika ndi National Electoral Commission, chikuwonetsa kuti a Moshood Abiola ndi Baba Gana Kingibe ochokera ku Social Democratic Party adagonjetsa Bashir Tofa ndi Sylvester Ugoh ochokera ku National Republican Convention ndi mavoti opitilira 2.3 miliyoni. Ndipouli, Babangida wakawuskapo mavoti, ndipo ivi vikapangiska kuti ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵambe kususka. Mu Ogasiti 1993, Babangida wakasunga layizgo lake lakuti wapelekenge mazaza ku boma la ŵanthu bweka, kweni pambere wandasankhe Ernest Shonekan kuŵa mulongozgi wa boma la kanyengo. Boma la Babangida likuwoneka kuti ndakuzura na vimbundi ndipo ndilo likupangiska vimbundi mu Nigeria.Diamond, Larry; Kirk-Greene, Anthony; Oyeleye Oyediran (1997) Transition without End: Nigerian Politics and Civil Society Under Babangida, Vantage Publishers, .

Boma la Shonekan, ilo likaŵa la nyengo yifupi comene mu mdauko wa ndyali wa caru ici, likathereskeka mu 1993 na boma la Sani Abacha.

Mu 1995, boma likadumura kuti Ken Saro-Wiwa uyo wakumanya vya umoyo wa ŵanthu wakomeke pa mulandu wa kukoma ŵalara ŵanayi ŵa Ogoni. Milandu yakulimbana na Royal Dutch Shell na Brian Anderson, mulara wa kampani ya Shell ku Nigeria, yikamara mu khoti.Mu 1999, ŵakasanga ndalama zakukwana madola mamiliyoni ghanandi pa akaunti za Abacha. Mu 1998, muwuso wa boma ili ukamara apo muwusi uyu wakafwira mu nyumba iyi. Wakaba ndalama mu mabanki gha ku vyaru vya kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Europe ndipo wakathereska awo ŵakakhumbanga kuti ŵamukome. Muwukirano wake, Jenerale Abdulsalami Abubakar, wakazomera dango liphya pa 5 Meyi 1999, ilo likapelekanga mavoti gha vyaru vinandi.

 Republic Yachinayi (1999-paka sono) 

Dada Abacha wakafwa mu 1998 pa "phwando" linyake. Muhaliri wake, Abdulsalami Abubakar, wakazomera dango pa Meyi 5, 1999, ilo likalembeka vyaka 10 kumasinda.

Pa Meyi 29, 1999, Abubakar wakapeleka mazaza kwa uyo wakathereska pa chisankho cha 1999, General Olusegun Obasanjo. Obasanjo wakaŵa mu jere mu nyengo ya muwusi wa nkhaza Abacha. Kusankhika kwa Obasanjo kukapharazga kwamba kwa Repubulika lachinayi la Nigeria, ilo likukhalilira mpaka lero (2023). Ici cikamara vilimika 39 vya demokilase, kuwukira boma na kuwukira boma.

Ndondomeko ya malango gha boma ya mu 1999, iyo yili na vyaru vyakuyana waka 37, Nyumba ya Malamulo ya ku America iyo yili na ŵanthu ŵatatu kufuma ku chigaŵa chilichose, ndiposo vyaru 13 ivyo vili na ŵanthu ŵachoko waka pa chisankho cha pulezidenti, yikwenera kuwoneka nga yikaŵa yiwemi chomene chifukwa cha mitundu na visopa ivyo vikupambana mu charu ichi. Kufuma waka pa nyengo iyi, munthu waliyose uyo wakukhumba kuŵa pulezidenti wakuŵikapo mtima kuti waŵe mwimiliri wa mtundu wake pera yayi, kweniso wa ŵanthu wose ŵa ku Nigeria.

Nangauli mavoti agho ghakapeleka mazaza kwa Obasanjo na kumuzomerezga kuti wazakaŵepo kachiŵiri pa mavoti gha 2003 ghakaŵa ghambura wanangwa ndiposo ghambura urunji, kweni Nigeria yikasintha chomene vinthu mu nyengo ya Obasanjo. Fundo yakuti nyumba ya malango yikatondeska pulezidenti kuti waleke kuwusa kwa nyengo yacitatu nangauli wakaŵa na mazaza pa ŵasilikari na ŵasilikari, mbukaboni wakuti parliamentarism yikakhora comene mu Nigeria kwambira mu 2000.

Mu Okutobala 2005, Nigeria na ŵakukongozga ŵa Paris Club ŵakafika pa phangano lakuti Nigeria yigowokere ngongoli yake pa mtengo wa 60%. Boma la Nigeria likagwiliskira nchito ndalama zinyake izo likasanganga kufuma ku mafuta kuti lilipire ndalama zakukwana 40 peresenti. Mu Epulero 2006, charu cha Nigeria chikaŵa chakwamba ku Africa kulipira ngongoli yake ya madola mabiliyoni 30.

Pa mavoti gha mu 2007, Umaru Yar'Adua wa People's Democratic Party wakiza ku mazaza. Wupu wa vyaru vyakupambanapambana, uwo ukawoneleranga ivyo vikacitika pa maungano gha ku Nigeria kuti viwovwire kuti paŵe wanangwa na urunji, ukasuska maungano agha. Pulezidenti Olusegun Obasanjo uyo wafumapo wakazomera upusikizgi na "vinthu vinyake viheni" ivyo vikacitika pa mavoti, kweni wakati ivyo vikacitika vikukolerana na ivyo ŵanthu ŵakuyowoya. Mu nkhani iyo yikayowoyeka pa TV mu 2007, wakasazgirapo kuti usange ŵanthu ŵa ku Nigeria ŵakakondwa yayi na muwuso wa munthu uyo wakamusankhira, ŵakeneranga kuzakavotaso mu vilimika vinayi. Umoyo wa Yar'Adua ukati wanangika, ici cikaŵa cambura nchito.thumb|202x202px|Goodluck Jonathan, purezidenti 2010-2015|left
Yar'Adua wakafwa pa 5 May 2010, ndipo Vice President Goodluck Jonathan wakaŵa kuti walapa myezi yitatu kumasinda kuti watore malo gha Yar'Adua, uyo wakalwara comene ndipo wakapokera munkhwala ku caru cinyake. Mu 2011, Jonathan ndiyo wakathereska pa chisankho chapulezidenti ndipo ŵapharazgi ŵa pa charu chose ŵakalemba kuti, mwakupambana na ivyo vikachitika kale, mavoti ghakaŵa ghawemi ndipo pakaŵavya nkhaza panji upusikizgi. Mu nyengo iyo wakaŵa mu boma, Jonathan wakawovwira kuti Ebola yimare kweniso kuti vinthu vyende makora mu vyaru vya ku Africa. Muwuso wa Jonathan ukakhozga mafilimu agho ghakaŵa ghapacanya comene, ndipo ivi vikapangiska kuti mafilimu gha ku Nigeria ghaŵe ghakwendakwenda makora.

Ku chigaŵa chinyake, chiwawa cha Boko Haram, icho chikatora ŵasungwana 200 ku Chibok mu 2014, chikulongora kuti boma la Nigeria lilije nkhongono (ŵasungwana 100 ŵa iwo ŵachali kubura mu 2022). Ndipouli, pa vyose ivi, udindo wa Jonathan ukuyana waka na uheni wa ndalama za boma. Ubuli ukaŵa wakukwana chomene pa chisankho cha 2015 apo "munthu wakutowa" Muhammadu Buhari wakanjira mu malo mwa Jonathan uyo wakakhumbanga kuwuskika. Ili ndilo (kufika mu 2022) chiyelezgero chimoza pera mu Republic yachinayi apo ŵanthu ŵa ku Nigeria ŵakakana kusankhaso pulezidenti uyo walipo. Chipani cha Jonathan, PDP, chatayika mphamvu pambuyo pa zaka 16 za boma.upright|thumb|Muhammadu Buhari wakaŵa purezidenti wa 15 wa Nigeria, uyo wakawusa kwambira 2015 mpaka 2023.
Pamaso pa chisankho cha 2015, chipani chikuru cha opposition - Action Congress of Nigeria, Congress for Progressive Change, All Nigeria Peoples Party (chipani cha All Progressives Grand Alliance), na chipani chiphya cha PDP (chipani cha ma governors gha chipani cha People's Democratic Party) - chikasazgikana na kupanga All Progressives Congress. Munthu uyo ŵakamusankhanga, Muhammadu Buhari, uyo wakachitapo mavoti mu 2003, 2007, na 2011, wakathereska pa mavoti ghakujumpha mamiliyoni ghaŵiri. Ŵanthu ŵanandi awo ŵakawonanga ivyo vikachitika ŵakatenge vikaŵa vyaurunji. Pa chisankho cha 2019 cha purezidenti, Buhari adasankhidwanso kachiwiri paudindo wake pogonjetsa mdani wake wapamtima Atiku Abubakar.

Ku Nigeria, chifukwa cha gulu la ku America la Black Lives Matter, mu 2020 ŵanthu ŵaciwukirano ŵakasuska ivyo ŵapolisi ŵakacita. Gulu la Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) likadandawura comene. Boma likawuskamo ŵasilikari aŵa ndipo likaŵalayizga kuti lizamunozga vinthu. Ndipouli, pa ungano wa mu Okutobala 2020, ŵasilikari ŵakakoma ŵanthu ŵanandi. Vinthu vikamba kwenda makora mu 2022, apo gulu la Boko Haram, ilo likawofya ŵanthu kumpoto kwa Nigeria kwa vyaka vinandi, likamara. Ŵasilikari 40,000 ŵa Boko Haram ŵakajipeleka.

Kwa nyengo yakwamba mu Republic yachinayi, ŵanthu ŵatatu ŵazamukumana pa mavoti gha February 2023: Bola Tinubu wa chipani cha neoliberal All Progressives, Atiku Abubakar wa People's Democratic Party na Peter Obi wa Labour Party. Kweniso, aka kakaŵa kakwamba mu nyengo ya Repubulika lacinayi kuti palije mulara wa ŵasilikari panji uyo wakweruzga ŵasilikari uyo wali kwimikika kuŵa pulezidenti. Peter Obi, yemwe kale anali kazembe wopambana wa Anambra State, akutsogola kwambiri pakufufuza malingaliro (kuyambira Okutobala 2022). Wakutemwa comene ŵanthu ŵaciwukirano awo ŵakukhala mu matawuni, ndipo wakukhala ku South East. 
Pa 27 February 2023, mazuŵa ghaŵiri pamanyuma pa chisankho, ma results ghakafumiskika na Electoral Commission INEC ghakulongora kuti chipani cha Labour Party na munthu wake Peter Obi, yayi, kweni mulwani wake Bola Tinubu ndiyo watonda. Wupu wakuwona vya mavoti wa EU ukayowoya kuti mavoti agha ghakaŵa ghambura kujima. Ŵankhungu awo ŵakaŵa na vilwero ŵakawotcha panji kuparanya mabokosi gha mavoti ghanandi. Ku malo ghanyake, ŵanthu ŵakaguliskanga mavoti. Ma servers agho ghakapelekanga ma results gha mavoti ghakaŵa kuti ghandagwirenge nchito kwa mazuŵa ghanandi. Kweniso vikaŵa vyambura machitiko kuti ŵapharazge pa foni. Ndipouli, makomiti ghakusora ghakafumiska mavoti agho ghakapambananga na ivyo ŵanthu ŵakaghanaghananga. Pulezidenti wakale Obasanjo wakalongosora mwakudumura ivyo vikachitika pa chisankho cha pa 25 February mu uthenga wa pa vidiyo.

 Makhalilo gha charu 

Charu cha Nigeria chili mu chigaŵa cha kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Africa pa Gulf of Guinea ndipo chili na malo ghakukwana 923,768 km2 (356,669 sq mi). Malire ake ndi makilomita 4,047, ndipo amagawana malire ndi Benin (773 km kapena 480 mi), Niger (1,497 km kapena 930 mi), Chad (87 km kapena 54 mi), ndi Cameroon (kuphatikiza Ambazonia) 1,690 km kapena 1,050 mi. Mphepete mwa nyanja yake ni mtunda wa makilomita 853. Charu cha Nigeria chili pakati pa latitude 4° na 14°N, ndipo longitude 2° na 15°E. Malo ghapacanya comene mu Nigeria ni Chappal Waddi pa mamita 2,419 (7,936 ft). Mlonga ukuru ni Niger na Benue, ndipo ukukumana na kunjira mu Niger Delta. Ili ni limoza mwa milonga yikuru comene pa caru cose ndipo kuli vyakumera vinandi vya mu Central Africa.

Chigaŵa chikuru chomene cha ku Nigeria ni chipalamba cha milonga ya Niger na Benue (iyo yikukumana na kuzgoka Y).Kumwera ca kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Niger kuli mapiri ghatali. Kumafumiro gha dazi kwa Benue kuli tumapiri na tumapiri uto tukupangiska Mambilla Plateau. Malo agha ghali pafupi na mphaka ya charu cha Cameroon.

 Nyengo 

Charu cha Nigeria chili na malo ghakupambanapambana. Kumwera kwenikweni kuli nkhalango zamvula, ndipo kukulokwa maji ghanandi chomene. Kumwera kwa charu ichi kuli chigaŵa cha Obudu. Malo gha mumphepete mwa nyanja ghakusangika kumwera kwa charu ichi. Ku mumphepete mwa nyanja kuli vyakumera vya mangrove.

Chigaŵa icho chili pafupi na mphaka na Cameroon, kufupi na mumphepete mwa nyanja, chili na nkhorongo zinandi ndipo chili mu chigaŵa cha nkhorongo za mumphepete mwa nyanja cha Cross-Sanaga-Bioko. Mu chigaŵa ichi ndimo mukukhala viyuni vya mtundu wa drill, ivyo vikusangika mu malo agha pera kweniso ku Cameroon. Malo agho ghali kufupi na Calabar, mu chigaŵa cha Cross River State, nagho ghali mu nkhorongo iyi. Chigaŵa cha kumwera kwa Nigeria pakati pa Mlonga wa Niger na wa Cross River chataya nkhorongo zake zinandi chifukwa cha kukura kwa vinthu na kukorako chifukwa cha unandi wa ŵanthu.

Vinthu vyose ivyo vili pakati pa kumwera na kumpoto ni nkhorongo. Vikuŵa kuti pa chaka kukulokwa maji ghanandi yayi, kweni ghakujumpha 500 m'paka 1,500. Vigaŵa vitatu vya savannah ni Guinea, Sudan, na Sahel. Nkhorongo ya ku Guinea yili na utheka utali uwo uli na makuni. Charu cha Sudan nacho chili nga ni malo agha, kweni chili na utheka na makuni ghafupi. Mu chigaŵa cha kumpoto na kumafumiro gha dazi, muli utheka na mchenga. Mu cigaŵa ca Sahel, vula yikujumpha 500 mm pa caka, ndipo mapopa gha Sahara ghakwamba kunjira. Ku chigaŵa chakumafumiro gha dazi kwa charu ichi kuli Nyanja ya Chad.

 Kuwona maji 
Nigeria wali kugaŵika vigaŵa viŵiri: Nyanja ya Chad na Niger. Chigaŵa cha Niger chili na maji ghakukwana 63% gha charu ichi. Mlonga ukuru wa Niger ni Benue, uwo ukwenda kujumpha mu Cameroon na kunjira mu Chad.

Malo agha ghakuthika na maji kufuma kumpoto kwa Nigeria. Malo gha Bauchi ghakupambana na mabwiwi gha maji gha Niger/Benue na Komadugu Yobe. Mapiri gha kumpoto ca kumafumiro gha dazi kwa Nigeria ghali ku chigaŵa cha Chad Basin, uko mlonga wa El Beid ndiwo uli mphaka na Cameroon, kufuma ku mapiri gha Mandara m'paka ku Nyanja ya Chad. Mlonga wa Komadugu Yobe ndiwo ukupangiska malo ghakuchemeka Hadejia-Nguru na nyanja za Ox-bow kuzingilizga nyanja ya Nguru mu nyengo ya vula. Mlonga unyake uwo uli kumpoto kwa charu ichi ni Ngadda na Yedseram. Mlonga uwo uli kumpoto ca kumafumiro gha dazi nawo ngukuru.

Kweniso ku Nigeria kuli milonga yinandi mumphepete mwa nyanja.

Nyanja ya Chad, iyo yili kumpoto ca kumafumiro gha dazi kwa Nigeria, yili na mbiri yakusuzga comene mu vilimika ivi. Mu vyaka vyasonosono apa, malo agha ghachepa comene, ndipo ici cingaŵa cifukwa cakuti ŵanthu ŵakumwa maji kufuma mu malo agha kuti ŵamwepo.

Makuni na mauteka
Ku Nigeria kuli vyakumera vyakupambanapambana vitatu: nkhorongo (uko kuli makuni ghanandi), viŵaya (uko kuli makuni ghanandi yayi, ndipo pakati pa makuni pali vyakumera na maluŵa), na mapiri (uko kuli vyakumera vinandi yayi, kweni chomenechomene mu mapiri kufupi na mphaka ya Cameroon). Malo gha nkhorongo na gha savani ghakupambana mu vigaŵa vitatu.

Malo ghanyake agho ghali kumwera kwa nkhorongo iyi, comenecomene kuzingilizga Mlonga wa Niger na Cross River, ghali na vivwati vya mangrove. Kumpoto kwa malo agha kuli chipalamba cha maji ghawemi, icho chili na vyakumera vyakupambana na vyakumera vya mangrove, ndipo kumpoto kwa malo agha kuli nkhorongo.

Vigaŵa vitatu vya savannah vili kugaŵika mu vigaŵa vitatu: nkhorongo ya ku Guinea, iyo yili na utheka utali uwo uli na makuni ghanandi, ndipo yikusangika mu vyaru vinandi.

 Nkhani za Umoyo 
alt=Nigerian deforrestation 1981 - 2020|thumb|Kutowa kwa nkhalango ku Nigeria 1981 ∼2020 Ku Nigeria, suzgo likuru comene ndakuti ŵanthu ŵakugwiliskira nchito viswaswa, kusazgapo maji ghaheni. Mu misumba yikuru-yikuru nga ni Lagos na misumba yinyake yikuru-yikuru ya ku Nigeria, suzgo la kunozga vyakusakazika likusazgikira cifukwa ca suzgo la vya cuma, unandi wa ŵanthu, kweniso cifukwa cakuti maboma ghakutondeka kunozga vyakusakazga vyakusakazika. Suzgo ili likuŵapo chifukwa cha umoyo wambura kukhazikika wa ŵanthu ŵa mu chigaŵa cha Kubwa ku Federal Capital Territory, uko ŵakutemwa kuwuskamo viswaswa mwambura kupambaniska. Ŵanthu ŵakughanaghana kuti cifukwa cikuru ca kunangika kwa vinthu mu misumba yikuru ya mu caru ici nchakuti ŵanthu ŵakucita mapulani mwambura kwenelera, ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakukhala mu matawuni ghakurughakuru, ŵanthu mbaukavu, ndipo maboma gha vigaŵa vyawo ghakumanya yayi. Vinthu vinyake ivyo ŵanthu ŵakuchita pa nkhani iyi, vikunanga malo agho ŵanthu ŵakukhala.

Wupu wa United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization ukati mu 2005, caru ca Nigeria ndico cikaŵa cakusuzga comene kuti makuni ghamare. Mu caka ici, mu caru ici mukaŵa makuni ghakukwana 12,2%, panji kuti mahekitala 11,089,000. Pakati pa 1990 na 2000, caru ca Nigeria cikaluza makuni ghakukwana mahekitala 409,700 pa caka. Pakati pa 1990 na 2005, nkhorongo ya ku Nigeria yikamara pa 35.7% panji kuti mahekitala pafupifupi 6,145,000. Charu cha Nigeria chili na chiŵelengero cha 6.2/10 pa charu chose pa vyaru 172.

Mu 2010, ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakasangika na dongo ilo lili na sulefure kufuma ku migodi ya golide ku Zamfara. Nangauli ŵanthu ŵakuyowoya vyakupambanapambana pa nkhani iyi, kweni ŵakuwona kuti ŵana ŵakujumpha 400 ŵakafwa na ulwari wa kulwara na ulozi.

Chigaŵa cha Delta ku Nigeria, uko kuli makampani ghakurughakuru gha mafuta, kuli mafuta ghanandi agho ghatutuka na masuzgo ghanyake agho ghakuchitiska nkhondo.

 Boma 

Pulezidenti wa Nigeria wakusankhika mu ndondomeko ya vigaŵa viŵiri. Kuti munthu wasankhike mu cigaŵa cakwamba, wakwenera kupokera mavoti ghanandi ndiposo mavoti ghakujumpha 25% mu vigaŵa 24 pa 36.Usange palije uyo wakufiska chilato ichi, ŵakuvota kachiŵiri pakati pa uyo wakulongozga na uyo wapokera mavoti ghanandi mu vigaŵa vinandi. Awo ŵakukhumba kuŵa pulezidenti ŵakuŵa na munthu munyake uyo wakuyana yayi na iwo pa nkhani ya fuko na chisopa: Mkhristu wa ku South wakusankha munthu wa ku North uyo ni Musulumani. Palije dango ilo likukanizga ivi, kweni ŵanthu wose awo ŵakukhumba kuŵa ŵalongozgi ŵa boma kufuma waka apo boma la France likambira ŵakulondezga dango ili.

Ndipouli, fundo iyi yakuti ŵanthu ŵavisopa na mafuko ghakupambanapambana ndiwo ŵalongozgenge ŵanyawo yikasuskika pa Chisankho cha 2023, apo Bola Ahmed Tinubu, uyo wakaŵa Musulumani, wakasankha Musulumani munyake, Senator Kashim Shettima kuti waŵe mulongozgi.

Ŵalara ŵa boma, nga ni pulezidenti, ŵakusankhika kwa vyaka vinayi.

 Kugawikana kwa boma 


Mu Nigeria muli misumba yinkhondi iyo muli ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 1 miliyoni (kufuma ku yikuru kuluta ku yichoko): Lagos, Kano, Ibadan, Benin City na Port Harcourt. Msumba wa Lagos ndiwo ni ukuru comene mu Africa, uli na ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 12 miliyoni.

Kumwera kwa charu ichi kuli misumba yinandi chomene. Kafukufuku munyake wakulongora kuti mu 2015, mu Nigeria mukaŵa misumba 20 iyo mukaŵa ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 500,000.

 Vipani 
Mu chaka cha 2022, Nyumba ya Mafumu na Nyumba ya ŵimiliri mu Nigeria yikulongozgeka na magulu ghatatu:
 Chipani cha Democratic People's Party ndicho chikaŵa na mazaza pa charu chose mu vyaka 16 vyakwambilira vya Repubulika Yachinayi. Likukhumba kuwezgerapo nkharo yake yiheni iyo yikaŵapo mu nyengo ya Jonathan pambere paŵavye mavoti gha 2015. Uyo wakulongozga, Abubakar, wakuwoneka kuti wakukumana na maboma gha chigaŵa cha chipani chake (makamaka Governor Wike) m'malo mwa ŵalwani ŵake ŵa ndyali.
 Wupu wa All Progressives Congress ni wupu wa vipani vichoko ivyo vikususkana na pulezidenti Jonathan. Chipani cha Progressive chikapeleka Muhammadu Buhari ku mpando wa president mu 2015 ndipo chakhala chipani chakulongozga kwambira nyengo iyo. Na nduna zakumanyikwa comene za boma, Fashola (Public Works) na Amaechi (Transport), ŵanthu ŵakulondezga fundo za boma ŵakujiwona kuti mbankhongono.
 Pa nyengo iyi, ŵa Labour ŵakaŵa ŵambura kuzomerezgeka na boma.

 Malango 

Ndondomeko ya malango ya ku Nigeria ndiyo njakwenelera. Ku Nigeria kuli malango ghanayi ghakupambanapambana, nga ni malango gha Chingelezi, common law, common law, na Sharia law:

 Dango la ku England mu Nigeria lili na malango gha ku Britain agho ghakaŵako mu nyengo ya ukoloni.

 Dango lakwendera lumoza ni malango gha boma agho ghalembeka mu charu icho munthu wali kukhalamo. (Ndondomeko iyi yikusangika comene mu vyaru vya Anglo-Saxon; kweni mu caru ca Europe, malango gha boma agho ghali kulembekeka makora, ndiposo agho ghakusangika mwakupepuka, ndigho ghakulongozga, nga ni umo viliri mu Code Napoléon mu France).

 Malango gha cikaya ghakafuma ku malango na maluso gha cikaya, kusazgapo maungano gha kumazga mphindano agho ghakaŵako pambere caru ca Yoruba cindaŵeko.

 Dango la Chisilamu likagwiranga ntchito ku Northern Nigeria, uko chisopa cha Chisilamu ndicho chikulongozga. Ŵasilamu ŵakugwiliskiraso ntchito chiyowoyero ichi mu chigaŵa cha Lagos, Oyo, Kwara, Ogun, na Osun. Malamulo gha visopo gha visopo ghakupambana mu vyaru vyose ndipo ghakupambana pa mulandu wa kusopa (nga nkhumwa na kupeleka moŵa).

Mu charu ichi muli makhoti gha milandu, ndipo khoti likuru chomene ni Khoti Likuru Chomene mu Nigeria.

Apo charu cha Nigeria chikapokera wanangwa mu 1960, chikaŵika mtima comene pa umoza wa Africa. Chimoza mwa vinthu ivyo vikapangiska kuti ŵanthu ŵa ku Africa ŵaleke kughanaghanira chomene vya charu ichi ni ubwezi uwo ukaŵa pakati pa Nigeria na Israyeli mu ma 1960. Israyeli ndiyo wakawovwira na kulaŵilira mulimo wa kuzenga Nyumba za Ufumu.

Ndondomeko ya vyaru vinyake ya Nigeria yikayezgeka mu ma 1970 apo caru cikafumamo mu nkhondo ya cikaya. Gulu ili likawovwiranga ŵanthu awo ŵakasuskanga maboma gha ŵazungu ku Southern Africa. Nigeria yikakhozgera African National Congress mwa kuŵa na maghanoghano ghakusuzga pa boma la South Africa. Nigeria yikaŵa yumoza wa awo ŵakambiska wupu wakucemeka Organisation for African Unity (uyo sono ni African Union). Nigeria ndiyo yikambiska vyaru vya kumanjiliro gha dazi kwa Africa, ndipo ndiyo yikendeskanga vyaru vya ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States) na ECOMOG (makamaka pa nyengo ya nkhondo za ku Liberia na Sierra Leone).

Chifukwa cha maghanoghano agha, Nigeria yikatuma ŵasilikari ku Congo mwaluŵiro, kuyana na umo wupu wa United Nations ukayowoyera, pamanyuma pakuti charu ichi chafwatuka. Nigeria yikagwiraso nchito zinandi za Pan-African na pro-self-government mu ma 1970, kusazgapo kuvikilira MPLA ya Angola, SWAPO mu Namibia, na kovwira ŵakususkana na maboma gha banthu ba ku Portugal Mozambique, na Rhodesia.

Kwambira mu 2000, malonda gha pakati pa China na Nigeria ghakusazgikira comene. Kufuma mu 2000 m'paka mu 2016, malonda gha vyaru viŵiri ivi ghakwera pa madola 10,384 miliyoni. Ndipouli, umo vinthu viliri pakati pa China na Nigeria vyazgoka nkhani yikuru ya ndyali. Fundo iyi yikulongora kuti vyakurya ivyo vikufuma ku China vikupanga pafupifupi 80 peresenti ya malonda ghose agho ghakuchitika pakati pa vyaru viŵiri ivi. Ivi vyapangiska kuti malonda ghaleke kwenda makora, cifukwa Nigeria yikuguliska vinthu vinandi comene kuluska ivyo yikuguliska ku China. Ntheura, chuma cha ku Nigeria chikuthemba chomene vinthu vyakukhora ivyo vikunjira mu charu ichi, ndipo ivi vyapangiska kuti makampani gha ku Nigeria ghasuzgike.

Pakulutilira na ndyali yake ya ku Africa, Nigeria yikamba kupanga ndalama yimoza ya ku West Africa yakucemeka Eco. Kweni pa Disembala 21, 2019, Pulezidenti wa Ivory Coast Alassane Ouattara, Emmanuel Macron, na vyaru vinyake vinandi vya UEMOA vikapharazga kuti ŵasinthenge waka zina la CFA franc m'malo mwa kusintha ndalama nga umo ŵakaghanaghaniranga pakwamba.

Ŵapolisi ŵa ku Nigeria ŵakumanyikwa comene cifukwa ca urunji wawo.

Chigaŵa cha Niger Delta chikaŵa na ŵanthu ŵanandi awo ŵakasuzgikanga na nkhondo mu 2016. Pakuzgora, boma liphya la Buhari likagwiliskira nchito nthowa ziŵiri za kukanizga ŵanthu na kuyowoyeskana.

Paumaliro wa 2016, boma la Nigeria likapeleka ndalama zakukwana naira 4.5 biliyoni (US$144 miliyoni) ku magulu agha kuti ghavikilire mafuta. Ŵanandi ŵakuzomera. Phangano ili likasazgikaso mu Ogasiti 2022, kweni pakaŵa mphindano pakati pa magulu agha. Awo ŵakwimira boma ŵakuyowoya za "nkhondo" - kwimikana. Ŵanthu ŵakopa kuti magulu agha, nangauli ghali na mazina ghapachanya, ghaleka kuŵa na udindo pa chigaŵa chawo na mafuko ghawo, ndipo ghazgokera ku vyakusanguluska na kujiwovwira. Mulimonsemo, mapaipi mu Niger Delta si "otetezedwa" moyenera - kuipitsa kwa Niger Delta ndi mafuta obedwa ndi mafuta olemera omwe amapangidwa mosaloledwa akupitilirabe osatsekedwa pambuyo pa 2016.

Usange mwafuma mu nyumba yinu, nanga pangaŵa muhanya, m'paka muwelere, mulije chivikiliro".

Mu Juni 2022, mu msumba wa St. Louis, mu Georgia, mukachitika ngozi ya kukoma ŵanthu. Tchalitchi la Francis Xavier, ku Owo. Boma likati ISWAP ndiyo yikakoma ŵanthu ŵakujumpha 50, kweni ŵanthu ŵakukayika kuti ŵaliska ŵa Fulani ndiwo ŵakakomeka..

 Chuma 


Pambere caka ca 1999 cindafike, vinthu vikasuzganga comene cifukwa ca muwuso wa ŵasilikari, vimbundi, na uheni. Kuwezgerapo demokilase na kusintha kwa vinthu vya cuma kwawovwira kuti Nigeria yambe kucita makora vinthu pa nkhani ya vya cuma. Pamasinda pa 2015, chuma cha ku Nigeria chikasintha. Padera pa mafuta na gasi, Nigeria yikuguliska vyakununkhira na simenti, vinthu vya polypropylene (pulasitiki), vinthu vyakovwira munthu kuŵa wakutowa. Nigeria ndiyo yikulongozga mu vyamalonda, vyakurya, na vyakusanguluska mu Africa. Lipoti la Banki ya Charu chose la 2017 pa malo ghakwendeskera vinthu mu Africa likaŵika chalo ichi pa malo ghachinayi, kuseri kwa Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, na Sao Tome, kweni mu 2021, Nigeria yikaba mu gulu la World Logistics Passport, gulu la banthu bakugwira nchito kuti ŵasazgireko malonda pa charu chose. Nigeria yikupanga cithuzi cimoza pa vithuzi vinkhondi na cimoza vya Britain. Pamanyuma pa mafuta, ndalama izo ŵanthu ŵa ku Nigeria ŵakutumira ku caru cawo ni izo ŵakutumira ku caru cawo.

Charu cha Nigeria chili na ŵanthu ŵachoko chomene awo ŵakukhala mu vyaru vinyake. Vinthu vinandi ivyo vikusangika mu charu ichi ni malasha, bauxite, tantalite, golide, tini, njere ya visulo, malibwe gha malibwe, niobium, lead, na zinc. Nangauli ku Nigeria kuli vinthu vinandi vyakuthupi ivi, kweni nchito ya migodi yili kwamba waka.

 Ulimi 

Mu 2021, pafupifupi 23.4% ya GDP ya Nigeria yikupangika na ulimi, nkhalango na somba. Nigeria ndiyo yikupanga chomene maniyu pa caru cose. Vyakumera vinyake vikuru ni chimanga, mpunga, mphoza, mpunga wa yamsisi, na chimanga. Cacao ndiyo yikuguliskika comene mu vyaru vinyake. Charu cha Nigeria nacho chili pakati pa vyaru 20 ivyo vikuguliska mphira wakuthupi pa charu chose.

Pambere nkhondo ya pawenenawene ya ku Nigeria yindambe ndiposo pambere mafuta ghandambe kunjira mu caru ici, caru ici cikaŵa cakurya cakukwana. Kale, vyakurya ndivyo vikasanganga ndalama zinandi mu Nigeria. Ku Nigeria, kulimi kuli kumara cifukwa ca kusazgikira kwa ŵanthu. Chaka chilichose charu ichi chikugwiliskira nchito ndalama zakukwana madola mabiliyoni 6.7 pa kunjizga vyakurya mu vyaru vinyake. Mu ma 1970, boma la Nigeria likamba kugwiliskira ntchito vyakurya vyambura kukhazikika.

Chiŵelengero cha mpunga ku Nigeria chikakwera na 10% kufuma mu 2017/18 kufika mu 2021/22 kufika pa matani 5 miliyoni pa chaka, kweni chikaŵa chakusuzga kuti chikwaniske. Ntheura, mpunga uwo ukatoleka ku vyaru vinyake ukakhala waka pa mtunda wa matani 2 pa chaka. Mu Ogasiti 2019, Nigeria yikajara mphaka yake na Benin na vyaru vinyake vyapafupi kuti yikanizge kusaska mpunga mu charu ichi.

Mpaka sono, Nigeria likaguliskanga mpunga wambura kuyuyulika, kweni likatoranga mpunga wambura kuyulika, uwo ni cakurya cikuru comene mu caru ici. Para mulimo uwu wamara mu 2022, malo agha, agho ngakuru comene kumwera kwa Sahara, ghazamovwira ŵanthu 250,000 na kupanga mphunga zakukwana makilogiramu 50 pa chaka.

 Mafuta ghakufula 

Nigeria ndiyo yikupangiska mafuta ghanandi pa caru cose, ndipo ndiyo yikupanga mafuta ghanandi pa caru cose. Mafuta ghakovwira comene pa cuma ca ku Nigeria, ndipo ghakupanga 40% ya GDP na 80% ya ndalama za boma. Ndipouli, ŵanthu awo ŵakukhumba kuti vinthu viŵe makora mu chigaŵa cha Niger Delta, icho ni chigaŵa chikuru cha mafuta, ŵakususka mulimo wa kupanga mafuta.

Malo gha mafuta gha Niger Delta Nembe Creek ghakasangika mu 1973 ndipo ghakupanga malibwe gha mchenga gha mu Miocene mu malo agho ghakusangika pa mtunda wa makilomita 2 mpaka 4. Mu Juni 2013, kampani ya Shell yikapharazga kuti yikunozgaso umo yikugwilira ntchito mu Nigeria. Nangauli makampani ghanandi gha mafuta gha pa charu chose ghakachitanga ntchito mu charu ichi kwa vyaka vinandi, kweni mu 2014 ghakaŵa kuti ghaleka kugwiliskira ntchito ndalama izi. Mu Ogasiti 2014, kampani ya Shell yikati yikumalizga kugura malo ghanayi gha mafuta ku Nigeria.

Ku Nigeria kuli malo gha mafuta 159 na visimi 1,481 ivyo vikugwira nchito kuyana na Dipatimenti ya vya Mafuta.

Mafuta ghanandi agho ghakusangika ku Nigeria ghakaŵa ghacoko comene, ndipo mu 1990, mafuta agha ghakaŵa 62.1% ya mafuta ghose gha ku Nigeria. Ivi vikupambana comene na malo ghakuru 16 agho ghakapanga mafuta gha 37.9% mu Nigeria. Mafuta ghakaŵa katundu uyo wakunjira mu Nigeria m'paka mu 2021, ndipo ghakaŵa 24 peresenti ya katundu uyo wakunjira mu charu ichi.

Pakuti caru ca Europe cikusuzgika na nkhondo ya ku Ukraine, ŵanthu ŵakughanaghana vya kwendeska gasi kufuma ku Nigeria kuya ku Morocco panji Algeria. Kweni mu Meyi 2022, pakaŵavya icho chikachitika.

 Kupanga na luso 

Nigeria yili na makampani gha kupanga vinthu nga ni vikumba na vyakuvwara (ku Kano, Abeokuta, Onitsha, na Lagos), pulasitiki na vyakurya. Ogun wakuwoneka kuti ni msumba ukuru wa mafakitale wa Nigeria, chifukwa mafakitale ghanandi ghali mu Ogun ndipo makampani ghanandi ghakusamukira kwenekuko. Msumba wa Aba, uwo uli kumwera kwa charu ichi, ukumanyikwa na vinthu vya mawoko na skapato. Nigeria yili na msika wa magalimoto 720,000 pa caka, kweni magalimoto ghambura kukwana 20% ghakupangika mu caru.

Mu 2016 (chaka chaumaliro icho tikasangirapo maukaboni), Nigeria ndiyo yikapanganga simenti yikuru chomene kumwera kwa Sahara. Aliko Dangote, munthu musambazi comene wa ku Nigeria, wakaŵa musambazi cifukwa ca kupanga simenti na vyakurya vinyake. Kuyana na umo iyo wakughanaghanira, Ajaokuta Steel Company Limited yikupanga matani 1.3 miliyoni gha nchero pa caka. Ivi vikayananga na chigaŵa chimoza pa vigaŵa vinkhondi na cimoza vya vyakufumiska vya UK mu 2021. Kweni vikuwoneka kuti mafakitale gha Katsina, Jos na Osogbo ghaleka kugwira ntchito.

Mu Juni 2019, Nigeria EduSat-1 yikatumika kufuma ku International Space Station. Iyi yikaŵa satelayiti yakwamba kuzenga ku Nigeria, ndipo yikati yaŵa na satelayiti zinandi za ku Nigeria izo zikapangika na vyaru vinyake. Mu chaka cha 2021, chalo cha Nigeria chili na ma pharmaceutical production capacity pafupifupi 60 peresenti mu Africa, makampani ghakurughakuru gha pharmaceutical ghali ku Lagos. Kampani yakupanga munkhwala iyo yili na ŵanthu ŵanandi ku Nigeria ni Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.

Chifukwa chakuti Nigeria yili pakatikati pa Africa, vyakuthupi vikovwira comene pa mulimo wa kuzenga. Boma la Buhari likamba kunozga vinthu vya mu charu ichi mu 2015. Ŵakuzenga misewu yiphya na kunozga misewu yinandi, comenecomene cifukwa cakuti boma likupeleka ndalama zinandi. Chinthu chinyake icho chikulongora kuti vinthu vyasintha ni Second Niger Bridge kufupi na Onitsha, iyo yikamara kuzengeka mu 2022.

Msika wa tumafoni wa ku Nigeria ndiwo ukukura mwaluŵiro comene pa caru cose, ndipo ŵamalonda ŵakumanyikwa comene (nga ni MTN, 9mobile, Airtel na Globacom) ŵali na malo ghakuru comene na ghakovwira comene mu caru ici. Chigaŵa cha ICT ku Nigeria chikukura chomene, ndipo chikaŵa na 10% ya GDP ya charu mu 2018 pakuyaniska na 1% mu 2001. Msumba wa Lagos ukuwoneka kuti ni umoza mwa malo ghakurughakuru gha vya sayansi mu Africa. Kuyana na kafukufuku uyo wakacitika na wupu wa GSM Association, ŵanalume ŵakukwana 92% na ŵanakazi 88% mu Nigeria ŵakaŵa na foni. Pakugwiliskira nchito nthowa zakupambanapambana, kusazgapo kweni kuti zikumalira waka pa kukakika mwambura kuzomerezgeka, kudumura mawebusayiti, kutora pasipoti, na kukanizga ŵanthu kugura maakaunti gha ku banki, boma la Nigeria likulanga ŵanthu chifukwa cha kujilongora pa intaneti na kukanizga wanangwa wa pa intaneti.

 Ulendo 

Ulendo wa ku Nigeria ukwendera chomene vinthu vyachilendo chifukwa cha mitundu yinandi iyo yili mu charu ichi. Ku Abuja kuli mapaki ghanandi na malo ghanyake. Malo ghakuru chomene, agho ni Millennium Park, ghakalembeka na Manfredi Nicoletti ndipo ghakajulika mu Disembala 2003. Pambuyo pa ntchito ya kukonzanso yomwe idakwaniritsidwa ndi boma la Bwanamkubwa Raji Babatunde Fashola, Lagos pang'onopang'ono ikukhala malo ofunikira alendo. Sono msumba wa Lagos ukucita vinthu vinyake kuti uŵe msumba wa caru cose. Chikondwerero cha Eyo cha 2009 (chikondwerero chapachaka chochokera ku Iperu Remo, Ogun State) chinali sitepe yopita ku mzinda wa dziko. Mazuŵa ghano, msumba wa Lagos ukumanyikwa na ŵanthu awo ŵakutemwa bizinesi. Ku Lagos kukaŵa malo ghakuzirwa chomene pa nkhani ya ŵanthu ŵa ku Africa na ŵa fuko la ŵanthu ŵa mitundu yinyake.

Boma la Nigeria likamba kunozgaso ndyali zake kufuma waka apo likacitira ndondomeko ya ku Bamako mu 1987, iyo yikakhozga nthowa zakovwira ŵanthu kuti ŵasangenge munkhwala na wovwiri wa munkhwala. Ndondomeko yiphya iyi yikawovwira kuti ŵanthu ŵaŵe na mwaŵi wa kupokera wovwiri wa munkhwala mu vigaŵa vyawo. Ndondomeko yikuru yikasazgikira ku vigaŵa vyose vya wovwiri wa munkhwala, ndipo pamasinda vinthu vikamba kwenda makora pa nkhani ya wovwiri wa munkhwala.

Mabungwe ghakupambanapambana gha ku Nigeria panji "masukulu ghakusambizga vya chisopa" ghakuchitako vinthu vyaupusikizgi na nkhaza za ndyali kweniso ghakwendeska vimbundi mu Nigeria. Pakuti mabungwe agha ghakukolerana chomene na ŵandyali na ŵasilikari, ghakupeleka mwaŵi ku ŵana ŵa sukulu kuti ŵamanye vinandi. Mwaciyelezgero, wupu wa Supreme Vikings Confraternity ukuyowoya kuti ŵanthu 12 ŵa mu Nyumba ya Malango ya ku Rivers State ŵali mu gulu la cisopo.

Pa caru cose, Nigeria njakumanyikwa cifukwa ca upusikizgi wa ku banki uwo ukucemeka 419, mtundu wa upusikizgi wa kulipira ndalama zakwendakwenda (wakucemeka kuyana na cipaturo 419 ca Dango la Nkhaza la Nigeria) pamoza na "upusikizgi wa ku Nigeria", mtundu wa upusikizgi uwo ukucitika na ŵanthu na magulu gha vigeŵenga. Vinthu ivi ni banki ya ku Nigeria iyo yikukolerana nayo (malango ghakukanizga ivi) kweniso munthu munyake uyo wakuti wali na ndalama izo wakukhumba kutorako ku banki iyi. Munthu uyo wapika ndalama wakughanaghana kuti wangapokera ndalama izo ŵamutuma ndipo waŵenge nazo. Mu malo mwake, ŵakutora ndalama, panji ŵakukanizga kulipira ndalama zinandi (izo zikuwoneka nga ni zichoko pakuyaniska na usambazi uwo ŵanthu ŵakughanaghana kuti ŵangasanga).

Ndalama izo IMF na World Bank ŵakugwiliskira nchito pa caru cose, zikugwiliskira nchito nkhongono zakugulira za dola ya ku America yayi. Ntheura, nthowa iyi njakususkana. Mwaciyelezgero, nangauli ku Nigeria kuli malo ghakusangika ŵanthu ŵambura nchito, kweni fundo yakuti ŵanalume 92% na ŵanakazi 88% mu Nigeria ŵali na foni njakusuzga kuyilondezga na unandi wa ukavu uwo walembeka na IMF na World Bank.

 Wanangwa wa Munthu 

Ŵanthu ŵa ku Nigeria ŵakutondeka kulondezga malango gha boma. Kuyana na U.S. Dipatimenti ya Boma, masuzgo ghakuru gha wanangwa wa ŵanthu ni kugwiliskira nchito nkongono zinandi na mawupu gha kuvikilira wanangwa wa ŵanthu, kuleka kulangika cifukwa ca kuyuzgika na mawupu gha kuvikilira wanangwa wa ŵanthu, kukakika mwambura kwenelera, kukakika kwa nyengo yitali, vimbundi vya ŵeruzgi na mazaza gha ŵalara ŵa boma pa wupu wa vyeruzgi, kukaka, kutambuzgika na vinthu vinyake vyakofya, vyambura urunji panji vyakukhozga soni ŵanthu awo ŵali mu jele, ŵakukakika na ŵakukayikira; vinthu vyakofya na vyakofya mu jele na malo ghakusungirako ŵanthu; kusuzga ŵanthu kuti ŵaŵe mahule na kugwira nchito mwankhongono, nkhaza za mu cikaya na kukoma ŵanthu, kugwira nchito kwa ŵana, kuyuzga ŵana na kuŵagwiliskira nchito uheni, nkhaza za mu mbumba, kusankhana chifukwa ca mtundu, cigaŵa na cisopa.

Boma la Nigeria ndilo likukolerana na phangano lakumazga nkhanza zose izo zikucitikira ŵanakazi. Kusankhana chifukwa cha kugonana ni nkhani yikuru ya wanangwa wa ŵanthu. Nthengwa zacicicizgo zikucitika comene. Nthengwa za ŵana zichali zakutchuka ku Northern Nigeria; 39% ya ŵasungwana ŵakutengwa pambere ŵandafike vyaka 15, nangauli dango lakukanizga nthengwa za ŵana ŵasungwana ŵa vyaka vyakukwana 18 likakhazikiskika mu 2008. Ku Northern Nigeria ŵanthu ŵanandi ŵakutora mitala. Kujilambika kwa muwoli kwa mfumu wake ndiposo nkhaza za pa nyumba ni vyakuzara. Ŵanakazi ŵalije wanangwa wa kupoka malo. Mu 2015, pa ŵanthu 100,000 awo ŵakababika, 814 ŵakafwanga. Nangauli mu 2015 boma likakanizga kuti ŵanakazi ŵachitikenge viŵaro vya mu viŵaro vyawo. Ku Nigeria, ŵanthu pafupifupi hafu ya miliyoni ŵali na nthenda iyi, comenecomene cifukwa ca kusoŵa munkhwala. Nthengwa zaciwukirano zingapangiska kuti munthu waŵe na nthenda iyi.

Ŵanakazi ŵakukumana na suzgo likuru comene pa ndyali mu Nigeria, cifukwa cakuti ŵakusuzgika na kusankhana mitundu ndipo ŵakukhozga suzgo lawo mu vigaŵa vya cikaya, vya cuma, na vyandyali. Mu 1979, ŵanakazi wose mu caru ici ŵakafwatuka. Ndipouli, ŵanakazi ŵanandi ku Nigeria, uko kuli muwuso wa ŵafumu, ŵakulutilira kupika mazaza na ŵafumu ŵawo. Ŵanakazi ndiwo ŵakugwira nchito zinandi mu vipatala. Ŵanakazi ŵacoko comene mu boma kufuma apo ŵakafwatukira ku Britain. Ŵanakazi ŵali kucepa comene mu mauteŵeti ghose gha mu boma, ndipo ŵachali na maudindo ghacoko comene. Kweni mazuŵa ghano, cifukwa cakuti ŵanthu ŵakusambira comene, ŵanakazi ŵa ku Nigeria ŵakucita vinthu vinyake kuti ŵateŵetere makora mu boma.

Kuyana na dango la Sharia ilo likugwira ntchito ku Ŵasilamu mu vyaru 12 vya kumpoto kwa charu ichi, ŵanthu awo ŵakumwa moŵa, kugonana ŵanalume panji ŵanakazi ŵekhaŵekha, ŵambura kugomezgeka, na kwiba ŵakulangika chomene. Kuyana na kafukufuku uyo wakachitika mu 2013, ŵanthu 98% ku Nigeria ŵakugomezga kuti ŵanthu ŵakwenera yayi kuzomera kugonana kwa ŵanalume panji ŵanakazi pera. Mu vyaka 23 ivyo vyajumpha (kufika mu Seputembala 2022), ŵantchito ŵa pa yunivesite ku Nigeria ŵakanjiramo mu sitiroko maulendo 17. Pa cifukwa ici, sukulu ya cihanya ya mu 2022 yikanikika mu caru cose.
