This is a list of diplomatic missions of Nigeria. Nigeria, the most populous African country, has a moderately large network of diplomatic missions. The country has significant influence in Africa and in various multilateral fora, including the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, OPEC, the Commonwealth, and the African Union.
Nigeria first started sending twelve diplomatic personnel overseas to serve in British missions from 1957. Three years later upon independence the country had its own foreign ministry, headed by Foreign Minister Jaja Wachukwu. Now the Nigerian foreign ministry has over 2,000 officers.
