BRIEF NOTE ON NIGER STATE

Niger State was created on 3rd February, 1976 from what used to be

called North-Western State during the regime of General Murtala

Ramat Mohammed; however, the State actually began functioning on

April 1st of that year. There were originally Nine LGAs, namely:

Chanchaga, Rafi, Bangi, Gbako, Etswan, Suleja, Mariga, Magama

and Lavun. Agaie and Lapai LGAs were later created out of Etswan

Local Government.

Between 1979 and 1983 when Malam Muhammadu Awwal Ibrahim

was Executive Governor of the State, eighteen LGAs were being

managed by the administration: Kuta, Paikoro, Chanchaga, Rafi,

Gbako, Katcha, Lemu, Lapai, Agaie, Suleja, Mariga, Bangi, Magama,

Auna, Lavun, Mokwa, and Jima-Doko. But when the military came

into power in 1984, it returned to the original L.G.A structure.

Chanchaga was however splitted into two:-Minna Municipal Council,

with headquarters at Minna and Shiroro LGA with headquarters at

Kuta.

The LGAs in Niger State became Nineteen (19) in 1991 when

President Ibrahim Babangida created Nine (9) States and additional

LGAs in Nigeria. However, by 1996 when late General Sani Abacha

created six (6) additional States and 182 LGAs, in the entire country,

Niger State got additional six (6) LGAs, namely, Katcha, Munya,

Mashegu, Edati, Tafa and Mariga, bringing the total to 25 LGAs.

In the year 2002, the Civilian Administration of Engineer Abdulkadir

A. Kure responded to the clarion call of the people for the creation of

additional Local Government Areas. To this end, additional 17 new

Local Government Areas were created out of the existing ones;

bringing the total number of Local Government Areas to 42. However,

the new LGAs were dissolved and converted to Area Development

Councils because they were not gazetted by the National Assembly

as enshrined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Thus, the status-quo of 25 LGAs was maintained.

LOCATION: The State lies on latitude 80o to 11o:30’ North and

Longitude 03o 30’ to 07o 40’ East. The State is bordered to the North

v

by Zamfara State, West by Kebbi State, South by Kogi State, South

West by Kwara State, North-East by Kaduna State and South East by

FCT. The State also has an International Boundary with the Republic

of Benin along Agwara and Borgu LGAs to the North West.

LAND MASS: As at 26th August 1991 (before the merger of Borgu

and Agwara LGAs), the State covered a land area of 74,244 square

Kilometres, which is 8% of the total land area of Nigeria. With the

merger, the land mass is now 76, 469.903 Square Kilometers (about

10% of the total land area of Nigeria) out of which about 85% is

arable.

POPULATION: As at 1961, the population of Niger State was

1,194,508. The 1991 population figure indicates Niger State as

provisionally containing 2,421,581 people. The population figure is

3,950,249 based on the 2006 Census.

SOIL: The soil types in Niger State are two: Ku soil and Ya soil. The

Ku soil has little erosion hazards, while the Ya soil has better water

holding capacity.

OCCUPATION: The majority of the populace in the State (85%) are

farmers while others constituting (15%) are involved in vocations

such as white collar jobs, business, craft and arts.

RELIGION: The people of Niger State are predominantly Muslims

and Christians with very few Traditional Religionists and Atheists.

TRIBES AND ETHNIC DIVISIONS: Although there are three major

ethnic groups (Nupe, Gbagyi, and Hausa) in the State, other tribal

groups include - Kadara, Koro, Baraba, Kakanda, GanaGana, Dibo,

Kambari, Kamuku, Pangu, Dukkawa, Gwada and Ingwai. The State

also has numerous settlers from other parts of the Country.

ECONOMY: Niger State possesses fertile land as a cherished asset

and the potentials are yet to be fully explored. The Climate and

availability of wide variety of mineral and agricultural resources attest

to the economic potentials of the State. Every government that has

come to power endeavoured to provide good infrastructure such as

roads, electricity, water and communication facilities, to make way for

interested investors. Some natural and mineral resources found in the

vi

State include: Talc, Gold, Ball clays, Silica, Sand, Marble, Copper,

Iron, Felsper, Lead, Kaolin, Casserole, Columbite, Mica, Quartzite,

and Limestone. The three Hydro Electric Power Stations in the

Country (at Kainji, Jebba and Shiroro) are all situated in Niger State.

TOURISM: Niger State is one of the richest in the country in terms of

tourism. Some of the Tourist attractions are Zuma Rock, Gurara falls,

Baro Empire Hill, Lord Lugard Colonial ruins at Zungeru,

Nagwamatse Well and Kainji Lake National Park.

CLIMATE: Niger State experiences distinct dry and wet seasons with

annual rain fall varying from 1,100mm in the northern parts to

1,600mm in the southern parts.

The maximum temperature (usually not more than 94oc) is recorded

between March and June, while the minimum is usually between

December and January. The rainy seasons last for about 150 days in

the northern parts to about 120 days in the southern parts of the

State. Generally, the fertile soil and hydrology of the State permits the

cultivation of most of Nigeria’s staple crops and still allows sufficient

opportunities for grazing, fresh water fishing and forestry

development.

INDUSTRIALIZATION: The government of Niger State is aware that

the true development of any nation depends on her level of

industrialization. For this reason concerted efforts have been made to

ensure rapid industrialization. Being largely an agrarian State, Niger

State can support a large variety of agro allied industries. Also, the

State’s numerous mineral resources can serve as basis for many

other industries.

In order to induce industrialists to invest heavily in tapping these

resources, government has to put in place many incentives such as

provision of well-serviced Industrial layouts, guaranteed accelerated

processing of application for industrial plots and even financial

assistance in form of loans and equity participation by the

government in certain cases. Other facilities like telecommunication,

postal services etc. are adequately provided in the State for effective

business contacts. The State has International airport and is well

linked to all parts of Nigeria by road and rail.

vii

ELECTRICITY SUPPLY: Niger State is the acclaimed “Power House”

of the nation because it houses the three Hydro-Electric Dams:

Shiroro Hydro-Electric Dam; Kainji Hydro-Electric Dam; and Jebba

Hydro-Electric Dam. It is a fact that all major towns in the State and

indeed all Local Government headquarters except few are connected

to the national grid.
