Apple says people can search for your app using localized keywords in every country or region where the App Store supports that language (Apple). For Nigeria, Apple lists one localization (Apple: App Store localizations):

• English (U.K.): also listed in 48 other storefronts covered here.

People in Nigeria search in English, but local spelling and word choice still matter, and the apps that rank are not the same as in other English-speaking stores. A step-by-step method is in App Store keyword research.

Your iPhone only shows the store of your Apple Account’s country. Apple’s public search data returns the top 200 apps for a term in any storefront; your rank is your app’s position in that list:
