Ekiti State Postal Codes (ZIP Codes) – Complete List of All LGAs and Areas

Ekiti State, located in Southwest Nigeria, is known as the “Fountain of Knowledge” due to its high concentration of educational institutions. With its capital in Ado-Ekiti, the state has a population of approximately 3.3 million people. Created in 1996, it comprises 16 Local Government Areas (LGAs) and is renowned for its intellectual heritage, agricultural production, and tourist attractions.

Ekiti State borders Kwara (north), Kogi (northeast), Ondo (south and west), and Osun (northwest).
