List of tallest buildings in Nigeria
Nigeria's tallest buildings.
Nigeria is the most heavily populated and one of the most economically developed nations on the African continent. However, the concentration of high-rise buildings and ongoing mega-projects is significantly localized around Lagos, Abuja and Eko Atlantic; these key marginal cities have experienced rapid growth recently. At 520 ft (160 m), The Nigerian External Communications (NECOM) building is the tallest building in Nigeria, with a total of 32 floors.
This list ranks Nigerian buildings that stand at least 60 m (197 ft) tall, based on standard height measurement. This includes spires and architectural details but does not include antenna masts.
