Nigeria’s northeastern region includes the Yobe State. It was founded on August 27, 1991, and is mostly an agricultural state. Borno State was divided to create Yobe State. Yobe State’s largest and most populous city, Potiskum, is located in the capital city of Damaturu.
The four states that the state borders are Bauchi, Borno, Gombe, and Jigawa. Yobe State is bordered to the east by Borno State, to the south by Gombe State, to the west by Bauchi and Jigawa States, and to the north by the Niger Republic. It has a border with the Diffa and Zinder Regions of Niger to the north. Except for in the southern section of the state, which receives higher yearly rainfall, conditions are hot and dry for most of the year because the state is primarily in the dry savanna region.
Yobe has a warm climate, with a daily average temperature of 37 °C (98.6 °F). The driest month is November, and the months with the most rain are August through December.
Yobe State was established on August 27, 1991. It was separated from the previous Borno State by the Babangida regime. The previous Borno State was one of Nigeria’s largest states in terms of land size, making it too big for straightforward administration and significant development. As a result, Yobe State was established. The choice was also influenced by racial tensions inside the former Borno State.
Due to the insurgency of the jihadist terrorist network Boko Haram, President Goodluck Jonathan announced a state of emergency in Yobe State, as well as the neighboring states of Borno and Adamawa, on May 14, 2013. Abubakar Shekau, the commander of Boko Haram, was born in Yobe’s Shekau village.
