Geographical region in central Nigeria
Middle Belt or Central Nigeria is the region stretching across Nigeria longitudinally and forming a transition zone between Northern and Southern Nigeria. It is an informal term, not officially recognized by the federal government of Nigeria, being used in human geography. It is composed of the southern half of the defunct Northern Region of Nigeria, now comprising mostly the North Central and parts of the North East and North West geopolitical zones, and is characterised by its lack of a clear majority ethnic group. It is also the location of Nigeria's Federal Capital Territory.
