    Answer:

    Earth is tilted on its axis

    Explanation:

    Whenever Earth is tilted on its axis, the tilt of the earth’s rotational axis causes Nigeria to have longer days in the summertime, beginning in June, compared to the winter period. The tilting of the earth also causes Nigeria to experience longer nights in the winter.

    The earth’s axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees compared to the earth’s orbital plane. Such tilting of the earth is what causes Nigeria to experience longer hours during the day in the summer when the Northern Hemisphere is titled toward the sun starting around June 20 or 21.
