Publishing a book in Nigeria can be a great way to share your story and reach a wide audience. Here are some steps to take before you publish your book:

Research Different Publishers: Look into different book publishers in Nigeria, their publishing services, offerings, terms and conditions, etc. Publishers like SubSaharan, Mirabilis, and Parrésia all have different services, so you can research and decide which publisher is right for you.
Prepare Everything: Make sure you have everything prepped to submit to a publisher. This includes the manuscript, any illustrations and artwork, a book jacket, and other materials.
Decide Your Publishing Model: Depending on your marketing strategy and approach, you may or may not decide to self-publish or go with a traditional publisher. If you decide to go with a traditional publisher, you will need to either approach them directly or submit to their open calls for submissions.
Promote the Book: Even before you publish the book, you should start thinking about ways to promote it. This could include creating a website and social media accounts, organizing book signings and book launches, creating trailers, and even creating content such as blogs and videos.
Get Feedback: Before you publish, be sure to get feedback from friends, family, and other readers. Ask them for opinions on the book, how it could be improved, how to market it, and even their favorite parts.

I hope these tips have been helpful! With some research and preparation, you should have no problem finding the right publisher in Nigeria and getting your book out in the world.

Good luck!
