Chibok, Local government area in Borno State, Nigeria
Located at 417 meters above sea level, Chibok extends across 1,350 square kilometers in the southern region of Borno State.
The local government area gained global recognition in April 2014 when nearly 300 students were taken from a secondary school by insurgent forces.
The Kibaku people form the primary population of Chibok, communicating through their native Kibaku language across numerous settlements in the region.
The region experiences two distinct weather patterns: a period of rain with high temperatures and humidity, followed by a dry interval with reduced precipitation.
Chibok operates as one of the sixteen administrative regions within the traditional Borno Emirate, maintaining local governance structures.
