I'm actually Nigerian so I can tell you.
Nigeria is famous for its oil. Recently, the ridiculous lies about all Nigerians being scam artists is one thing Nigeria is famous for. It's famous for its movies (the second biggest movie-making country in the world) and high population (most populated country in Africa).
Good luck!

In the positive sense; it is famous for it's music.Also it is famous for it's colourfulness and beautiful countryside.
It is a very varied country with many different tribes,customs and landscapes even.It is also slightly better organised than countries surrounding it save Cameroun maybe.
It is also one of the most difficult places to live or travel in alas.

Art and music. Yoruba pop music, and various traditional musics that contributed to America, Brazilian and Caribbean musics. Benin bronzes and ivory carvings, Yoruba castings, Igbo Ukwu art and Nok sculptures from ?BC. Modern authors including Chinua Achebe and Nobel Prize winning Wole Soyinka. Show some Nigerian art, play some Nigerian music and read some Nigerian authors for your report.

Nigeria is famous for their crude oil (of course), being a country in Africa with the largest population, it's vegetation, and unfortunately these days, scammers. :( I'm Nigerian, so I should know this stuff. Chaeck out this site to find more:
https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ni.html#Econ
or just go to www.cia.gov, scroll down to LIBRARY & REFERENCE on the side bar, click on THE WORLD FACTBOOK, then go to the scroll list of countries, & go to Nigeria. After the page loads up, click ECONOMY in the CATEGORIES list, the scroll down to INDUSTRIES, in that same category.
GOOD LUCK ON YOUR PROJECT!!!!

we nigerians are the best african soccer players, we are the 2-3 richest african country, we created jeloff rice, we have crude oil, we have the best unique names and in terms of intelligence, we nigerians are the smartest and the most clever-able to turn any situation into something benificial for all of us.
