Relevant local content is key to the development of the internet in Nigeria. When the local
YouTube domain was launched in Nigeria in 2011, no one could have guessed the amount
of impact it would make. From Musical videos, to "how-to” DIY clips, comedy skits, short
movies Nigerians have been generating some of the most creatively diverse content on
YouTube.
To further support local creators, the YouTube Partner Program has now been extended
to Nigeria. What this means is that Nigerian YouTube users are now going to be able to
make money on their videos, and gain access to resources and programs that can help them
expand to a larger audience. So whether it’s a banker who dreams of moonlighting as a
comedian, or a young animator in Unilag working on an animation series, or a seasoned
makeup artist looking to showcase her talent to a wider audience, the YouTube Partner
Program provides an opportunity for them to share to a worldwide audience and earn
money doing so.
To find out more and enroll in this program and become a YouTube Partner, content creators will be required
to sign-in in their YouTube accounts and have at least one video enabled for advertising on
