From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change
Abuja is a city in Nigeria. It is the national capital of Nigeria. Around 2.5 million people live there. Abuja is in the middle of the country, in the center of the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria.
The capital of Nigeria used to be Lagos, but it was moved to Abuja in 1976.
Abuja is a planned city, which means that architects designed it specifically to be the capital city. Construction of the first parts of the city was finished in the late 1980s.
