Postal code in Nigeria
In Nigeria, main post offices in regions typically end in 0001 for postal codes. For instance, Abuja’s Garki Main Head Office is 900001, and Lagos’ Ikeja Head Office is 100001. The range spans from 100001 to 982002.
Nigeria uses “postal code” rather than “ZIP code,” which is more of an American term. However, both serve the same purpose.
