Nigeria made a bold and strategic move to establish as Africa’s esports capital, after the Esports Federation of Nigeria (EFN) officially bid to host the 2028 Esports Nations Cup (ENC) — one of the most prestigious international esports tournaments in the world.
With over 3.3 billion gamers globally and esports audiences now rivaling traditional sports in reach and engagement, competitive gaming has evolved into a powerful cultural, technological, and economic force. Nigeria, powered by one of the youngest populations on the planet, a rapidly expanding digital economy, and a vibrant creative sector is positioning itself at the centre of that global transformation.
