Mahi is a major city in Niger State, Nigeria, located in the central region of the country, adjacent to the Niger River. As a major economic and transportation hub in the state, Mahi has agriculture and trade as its core industries and is surrounded by cotton, peanuts, cassava and other crops.
The city is located in a savannah climate zone with distinct dry and rainy seasons and has a population of about 250,000 (2023 estimate), which is predominantly Hausa and multicultural. It is geographically connected to the capital city, Abuja, and the cities of the Northwest, and has a well-developed road network.
The economy of Mahi is based on the processing and distribution of agricultural products and is surrounded by mineral resources such as limestone. In recent years, there has been a gradual development of small-scale manufacturing, and traditional handicrafts, such as weaving and pottery, have become a local specialty.
Most of the inhabitants are Muslims and have preserved the Hausa tradition of festivals and music. There is a mix of colonial architecture and modern bazaars in the city. Basic education facilities are widely available, but healthcare resources are still in need of improvement.
