Twelve Most Peaceful And Friendly States In Nigeria According To Political Zones by GarangDeMabior(op): 7:02pm On Sep 30, 2020
Nigeria is a large country with 36 states with six Political zones. To many outside of its borders, Nigeria is largely portrayed as an unsafe country. This is because of news of terrorism such as with Boko Haram attacks on residents and citizens of the country.

The richness of a state is not based on the stability of its economy, but by the amount of peace enjoyed by its citizens. In this post, I shall be rolling out 20 most peaceful states in Nigeria.


North Central

1. Abuja: The capital city of Nigeria. You can’t take it away from the capital territory, as one of the most peaceful states in the country. That is where the president resides and there shouldn’t be much talk on why it should be on the list.

2. Niger state: Niger is a state in the North central region of Nigeria and the largest state in the country. The state's capital is at Minna. The state is relatively peaceful and Friendly as compared to others.


South-South

1. Akwa Ibom state: Akwa ibom is yet another state that is quite known for its peaceful nature.
Despite being among the oil producing states, Akwa ibom records little or no violence among south-south states.

2. Cross River states: it is also one of the most peaceful states we have in Nigeria.

The state is full of good people, even though there are little communal clashes in the state it is still secured when compared with other states in northern part of the country. Calabar its capital is a place to relax and enjoy life as there are different varieties of food and music to spice up your soul.


North-West

1. Sokoto state: among all the states in northern part of Nigeria, Sokoto is seen as the most peaceful. Going by the rate of insurgency recorded in the north, Sokoto has little or no record of violence. The citizens are very religious people which mean they value peace.

2. Kebbi State

Kebbi state: Kebbi is another north west state which is known to be peaceful. Since its creation, little or nothing has been recorded in the state in terms of threat to life or destruction of properties.


South East

1. Anambra State : Anambra is a state in southeastern part of Nigeria. The capital and seat of government is Awka. It is the most peaceful state in south east due to the friendly nature of the state itself.

2. Imo state: Capitat city located at Owerri, Imo is still known for the peace enjoyed in the state. If you are looking for a cool state to start up your business, try Imo.

North East

1. Bsuchi : Bauchi State takes its name from the historic town of Bauchi, which also serves as the capital city and is located in the North East of Nigeria. It is the most peaceful state in North east.

2. Gombe, usually referred to as Gombe State to distinguish it from its capital city Gombe, is located in northeastern Nigeria.It another peaceful states in north east

South west

1. Lagos state: Capital city is Ikeja. Despite its overcrowded nature, the state is still rated one of the most peaceful states in South West.

2. Ekiti State: Ekiti is one of the safest states in South west. People enjoy the nightlife without the fear of attacks due to the friendly environment.

The O.P is correct..... Don't know of other state but Abuja and Niger is peaceful, although the word "Peaceful" has a different connotational meaning to different folks hence what l regard and consider as peaceful might be war to another entity.

Ops, don't just wake up and be posting thrash without any empirical data to back it up. Except North-east and Some North-western and North-central state which are battling with Boko haram and banditry menace, all other state are general peaceful since most Nigerians are living below the poverty line.

It's only an ANAMBRA MAN that will exclude ENUGU STATE from such list and ensure Anambra comes to the top despite all the heinous crimes and disasters emanating from Anambra.
Mind you, I don't hail from ENUGU.

IF ENUGU is not there, then Nigerians are truly corrupt.
