About Kebbi State

Kebbi state was established on 27 August 1991 after being carved out of the old Sokoto State. Located in the north-western part of Nigeria, the state occupies an estimated land area of about 36,800 square kilometres and shares borders with Sokoto, Niger State, Zamfara, and the Republic of Niger. Hausa and Fulfulde are widely spoken across the state, while farming, fishing, cattle rearing, and trading remain the dominant occupations among residents.
