Michika Towns And Villages

Michika is a Local Government Area in the far north of Adamawa State, on Nigeria’s border with Cameroon. Its headquarters sits in Michika town, roughly 10.6°N, 13.4°E, and the area covers about 822 square kilometres. The 2006 census counted 155,238 people, projected to 239,400 by 2022.

Michika has 16 wards, the most of any council in Adamawa. The Kamwe people, also called Higi, are the main group and speak Vecemwe. Bazza and Nkafa are the two historic settlement clusters. Boko Haram briefly held the area in 2014 and displaced many residents before the towns were retaken.
