A Laravel faker library to generate typical Nigeria fake data ranging from name, address, phone number, LGAs and states for you. It supports Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa ethnic groups with culturally authentic data.
# Laravel NaijaFaker
## Introduction 👋
A comprehensive package that generates fake, culturally authentic Nigerian data — names, addresses, phone numbers, bank accounts, universities, companies, and much more. Supports three major ethnic groups: **Yoruba**, **Igbo**, and **Hausa**.
> NB: Nigeria as a country has so many languages. `Yoruba`, `Igbo` and `Hausa` are the only languages supported at the moment.
