Behind the Scenes at BBC Lagos

The programme is in Lagos this week, meeting journalists from the BBC's Pidgin, Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa services.

Nigeria's cough syrup addiction
Thousands of young Nigerians are addicted to codeine cough syrup, a medicine that's become a street drug. BBC Pidgin editor Adejuwon Soyinka went undercover to investigate for the new BBC Africa Eye series.

Nigeria beyond Boko Haram
How do the BBC Lagos teams report Nigeria? We take a tour of crime, politics and entrepreneurship with Igbo editor Adline Okere, Onyinye Chime from BBC Pidgin, Yoruba editor Temidayo Olofinsawo and BBC Hausa's Nasidi Yahaya.

The hidden talents of BBC Lagos
Singers, dancers, poets and even a surprise entry in Korean are what we discovered at BBC Lagos. Join the Igbo, Yoruba and Pidgin teams in this showcase of their talents.

Language, names and food: being Nigerian
What unites a population of 186 million, and makes Nigerians different from each other? We bring together a microcosm of the country with our panel Ahmed Ambali of BBC Yoruba, Chimezie Ucheagbo of BBC Igbo, Princess Williams from BBC Pidgin, and BBC Hausa's Umar Elleman.

The pepper soup clash
Who makes the best pepper soup? BBC Igbo and BBC Yoruba stir it up and take it outside… to a food fair. Oluchi Nwankwo and Jelilat Olawale defend their corners.
