This is the Nigerian component of the International Corpus of English, a corpus of contemporary Nigerian English as it is used by educated Nigerians.

The corpus can be downloaded in different parts:
- ICE-Nigeria-txt-and-xml-files.zip
The complete corpus as text files and as xml files (spoken and written part of the corpus). Also includes more information on the corpus.
- ICE-Nigeria-written-pos-tagged.zip
The written part of the corpus with parts of speech tagging.
- ICE-Nigeria-raw-files
This folder contains all raw files, i.e. recordings for the spoken part and scans (or similar) of original documents for the written part.

We recommend Pacx http://pacx.sourceforge.net/ in order to search the xml/eaf version of the corpus. This also allows searching for speaker attributes such as gender, age and ethnic group.
In order to use the time-aligned transcriptions of the spoken data, the eaf files need to be accessed with ELAN http://tla.mpi.nl/tools/tla-tools/elan/
