Naija Culture and Entertainment Export

Exporting Nigerian Culture. Connecting Generations. Enriching Canada

The Naija Culture & Entertainment Export Initiative was created to address a growing need within the Nigerian diaspora: preserving cultural identity while integrating meaningfully into Canadian society.

Through arts, education, and storytelling, we build bridges between Nigeria and Canada, ensuring culture is passed on with pride, accuracy, and relevance.

Our Vision

To see Nigerian culture recognized, respected, and celebrated across Canada as a vital contributor to multicultural identity.

Our Mission

To export Nigerian cultural knowledge and creative excellence by connecting Nigerian artists and educators with Canadian communities, schools, and institutions.
