The Hadejia River is a significant waterway located in northeastern Nigeria. It is a tributary of the Jama'are River, which eventually flows into the Borno River. The river plays a crucial role in the local ecosystem and supports agriculture in the surrounding areas, providing water for irrigation and livestock. The river is also known for its seasonal flooding, which creates a rich habitat for various wildlife species. This flooding supports the Hadejia-Nguru Wetlands, an important area for bird migration and biodiversity. The river is vital for the livelihoods of many communities along its banks.
