material to all BBC News programmes and services – for Africa, the UK
and internationally - in English and other languages, including Hausa.
With Nigeria being the largest economy in Africa and Lagos the largest city in Africa by population, it is crucial that our spoken and written content in both English and Hausa is of the highest possible editorial and technical standard, which in turn provides the best value for money for BBC audiences around the world.
