Nigeria, Africa’s most populous nation, shares land boundaries with four countries: Benin to the west, Niger to the north, Chad to the northeast, and Cameroon to the east and southeast. In total, 16 Nigerian states have direct international frontiers.

These borders drive trade and cultural exchange but also pose security and governance challenges such as smuggling, illegal migration, and other cross-border crimes.
Lagos – Benin

Nigeria’s busiest westward gateway via Seme–Krake, the main land corridor on the Lagos–Cotonou–Abidjan route. Heavy formal and informal trade flows, plus a modern joint border post.
Ogun – Benin

Home to the Idiroko crossing; a long-standing trading frontier that links southwestern Nigeria to southeastern Benin and Porto-Novo.
Oyo – Benin

Borders Benin across rural corridors in Iwajowa and environs, supporting agro-trade and pastoral movement between Yoruba communities on both sides.
Kwara – Benin

A north-central gateway feeding the Lagos–Sahel trade spine; cross-border markets connect Kwara’s farming belts with Benin’s Borgou/Alibori hinterland.
Niger (state) – Benin

The frontier runs through Borgu country near Kainji/Babbana areas, with deep cultural ties across the line—important for cross-border grazing and trade.
Kebbi – Niger & Benin

A rare two-country border state; routes here knit Nigeria to Niger’s Dosso/Tillabéri and to Benin’s Alibori. Strategic for rice, livestock trade and security cooperation.
Sokoto – Niger

Northern Sahelian crossing points and weekly markets drive grain and livestock flows; they are also sensitive for transhumance management and security.
Zamfara – Niger

Shares sparsely populated stretches prone to informal movement; surveillance and community engagement are crucial to curb smuggling.
Katsina – Niger

Hosts the busy Jibiya–Maradi axis—vital for formal trade, but historically a hotspot for illicit flows when controls weaken.
Jigawa – Niger

The Maigatari corridor anchors cross-border livestock and produce trade; an export processing zone is positioned to leverage this.
Yobe – Niger

Long desert-edge border supporting pastoral routes and grain trade into Diffa/Mainé-Soroa areas of Niger.
Borno – Niger, Chad & Cameroon

Nigeria’s only tri-border state. Links to Diffa (Niger), Lake Chad communities (Chad) and the Mandara/Mafa corridors (Cameroon) make it pivotal for both trade and regional security.
Adamawa – Cameroon

Mountain and river crossings interlace historic markets (e.g., Gurin/Maiha axes), sustaining agro-trade and kinship links across the Mandara range.
Taraba – Cameroon

A long, rural frontier through the Mambilla/Benue highlands; coffee, cattle and produce move through community-run crossings alongside formal posts.
Cross River – Cameroon

Southern gateway with the Mfum–Ekok international bridge, improving travel times and freight reliability on a Trans-African highway segment.

Shares a maritime boundary with Cameroon off the coast (Bakassi/Rio del Rey region), relevant for fisheries, offshore assets and coastal security.
