List of national parks of Nigeria

The national parks of Nigeria are preserved, enhanced, protected and managed by the Nigeria National Park Service. The Nigeria National Park Service is a parastatal under the Federal Ministry of the Environment, and is headed by a conservator general. It works closely with the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation.

History
Colonial era During British colonial rule, authorities used forest conservation as a pretense for further colonial exploitation of Nigeria's resources. This included the establishment of a forestry department and policies on forestry. The National Parks Governing Board and five new National Parks were set up in 1991. ==References==
