Secularism in Nigeria is a legal and constitutional principle that states that the government of Nigeria and its states shall not adopt any religion as a state religion,[1] and that every person shall have the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion.[1] Secularism in Nigeria is derived from the Constitution of Nigeria, which is the supreme law of the country.[2] Secularism in Nigeria aims to ensure and protect the religious diversity and freedom of all citizens, regardless of their faith or belief.[3]
