What's an "institution" on Locate?

A federal, state, regulatory, electoral or emergency body that the public interacts with — and where to find it.

This directory covers every public-facing branch of Nigerian government and parastatals: federal ministries, regulatory agencies (CBN, NAFDAC, NCC), electoral commission (INEC) offices, embassies and high commissions, NIMC registration centres for your NIN, NIPOST branches for ZIP codes and parcels, state secretariats, local government councils, and emergency services like NEMA and the Fire Service.

Every record carries the office's address, phone numbers, opening hours, list of services offered, current fees, processing times, and an online portal link where one exists. Looking for something more specific? Tap any category card above — or use the level tabs to narrow by federal, state, regulatory, or other.

Need universities, markets, or NYSC instead? Those have their own directories.
