I avoided this thread since I saw it yesterday because I KNEW that it would not be able to identify what is causing the problem.

It's guessed it's just a clickbait title.

I decided to confirm my assertion now and I was proven correct.

Just generic drivel.

No plausible answer to why we have been boiling for 3 weeks now

The only solution is to get solar fan, don't wait for Nigeria government light.May God provide for those that are not having solar fan.

We should start planting more trees, the air is always cooler where there are trees.

I was about to say this.
Jesus didn't make a mistake when He made trees.

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to sit down under a tree after walking for long under the hot sun in an Estate i went and gosh!! O! boy!

It was such a relief. Even better than A.C.

I thought its only me that notice it, they always use concrete for the flooring and they think its enjoyment, not place for vegetation.

TheTravelingOne:
I been saying this. I never understand why in Lagos, they cut down beautiful trees to build houses and surround the house with all concrete. It’s the silliest shxt and it’s ugly. I like to have greenery around me, it’s calming looking out at trees and it makes the environment cooler and air freshener.
The attitude here is only the rich in Ikoyi, banana island deserve trees in their surroundings.
So weird.

Kaduna had been cool, i was checking, infact, the temperatures dropped to 16 degrees before at night at its coolest.

But the temperatures are rising in all places now. Jos is alway the coolest, maximum is 30, minimum is 16. there was a time around January the lowest temperature in Jos was 9C

I'm surprised people are complaining of too much heat.

Here in Kaduna, the heat is minimal, just normal room temperature

Here in Kaduna, I can't sleep at night without covering myself with sheet..
Although the cold was so bad during the harmattan. The humidity was so low that I get shocked just by stepping on tiles barefooted, never seen anything like it....
Re: Here Is Why Nigeria Is Experiencing Such Extreme Heat These Days by SeriouslySense(m): 9:52am On Feb 16
Count it as a blessing, with that cold you will sleep very well, i prefer extreme cold than extreme heat with humidity.

And if one sleeps well, the overall health benefits.

Nigeria is NOT on the Equator. If you go quote person, quite with correct information. Thank you.
I stand corrected.
We are only a few degrees shy of the equator.

I was primarily explaining the difference in weather with China due to latitude.
