Gindi is a local government area (LGA) located within the Tambuwal Local Government Area of Sokoto State in northwestern Nigeria. Situated in the semi-arid Sahel region, Gindi lies within the broader Sokoto Basin, characterized by its flat plains and seasonal rivers that flow during the rainy season. As part of Nigeria's administrative structure at the local level, Gindi serves as an important rural settlement area with an estimated population of approximately 45,000-55,000 residents, primarily engaged in subsistence farming, livestock rearing, and small-scale trading activities typical of this region. The area covers roughly 350-400 square kilometers of predominantly savannah vegetation, with scattered trees and shrubs adapted to the dry climate. Gindi is administratively organized into several wards and villages that fall under its jurisdiction, maintaining traditional leadership structures alongside modern local government administration.
