Nigeria is one of the most underestimated GEO markets in the world — and that’s exactly why it matters so much in 2026.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what “the best GEO agencies in Nigeria” actually means, because this isn’t a market where GEO shows up as a shiny new service on agency websites yet. Instead, it shows up in execution: strong English-language authority, regional thought leadership, and an internet culture that AI systems pull from far more than people realise.

I’ll walk through why Nigerian agencies — especially those based in Lagos — are uniquely positioned to influence generative engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews, and what types of agencies already have the foundations needed for GEO success.

We’ll also talk about a mistake I see global brands make all the time: assuming African markets are “local only” in AI search. In reality, Nigerian content, media, and expertise regularly surface in global AI answers — particularly across tech, fintech, media, and culture.
