I doubt if there is any organization that deals with recycle here in Nigeria but all thanks to those people walking around to buy any kind of plastic and those Hausa guys picking and buying used iron because if not for them everywhere will be full of plastic and iron.
Though some areas are still full of used plastic which I don’t know the reason why but I guess those people buying plastic are not around there
I actually saw one place like that that deals with the recycle stuff , so I want to think that there are many other places like that too around the State
It might depend on the type of plastic. I know here it is mostly #1 and #2 bottles that get recycled, and the other plastics, not so much.

Oh you mean not all kind of bottles and cans gets recycled?
Generally, at least in the west, glass, metal, and paper get recycled; plastic, worldwide, only 9% of all plastic ever made has been recycled. Ever! That's why there is so much plastic pollution.
The small amount that gets recycled, is mostly #1 and #2 bottles, like what drinks come in. Here the recycling facility collects the other types of plastic, but the odds are very, very low that it will actually be recycled.
There are some programs in some places that are working on other plastics - I saw a docu about a facility in Mexico I think it was that actually recycles Styrofoam (#4), which almost never gets recycled elsewhere - but they are rare and local.
Oh I understand what you mean.
I will need to look this up on the net for better knowledge on this stuffs
