Zuma Rock is a large natural monolith, or inselberg, an igneous intrusion composed of gabbro and granodiorite, in Niger State, Nigeria.[1] It is located in the west of Nigeria's capital, Abuja, along the main road from Abuja to Kaduna off Madala, and is sometimes referred to as the "Gateway to Abuja from Suleja".[2] Zuma Rock rises approx. 300 metres (980 ft) above its surroundings.[3] It was once thought to be in the Federal Capital Territory but is actually located at the upper end of Madalla, a rural settlement in Suleja Local Government Area of Niger State.
Zuma Rock is depicted on the 100 naira note.[4] It was used for a defensive retreat by the Gbagyi people against invading neighbouring tribes during intertribal wars.[5]
Zuma Rock is very tall by the standards of Nigerian geography.[6] It is taller than Aso rock and Olumo rock combined.[7][8]
