December is one happening month. From the celebrations to the parties, many people love this month for fun attached to it.
No matter how broke some people were throughout a year, December brings out the 'richness' in them.
Coming to Nigeria for vacation during this time of the year is always much fun. Not only is the weather more suitable during this period, but there are also more activities lined up as well as good tourist activities provided.
