Some of the major river basins in Nigeria include the Niger Basin Authority (mandate: cooperation, sustainable management of water resources), the Benue Basin Development Authority (mandate: development of water resources for agriculture, fisheries, and urban water supply), and the Ogun-Oshun River Basin Development Authority (mandate: water resources development for agriculture, domestic, and industrial use).

Niger Basin Authority was created in 1980.
It was created by the Federal Government of Nigeria to delay the developmental agitation of the people of the nIger delta. The same could be said to the defunct OMPADEC, presently the NDDC.
In 1960 it was organized by WAPDA [water and power development authority]

Most of the country is either in the Vitula River basin or the Oder River one.
The Ganges River has the largest river basin at about 2500 km long.
the Mississippi river drainage basin, Colorado river drainage basin, and the Columbia river drainage basin
A river basin is an area of land where all the water not absorbed into the ground or evaporated into the air drains into one particular river. A tributary does not increase the size of a river basin because all a river's tributaries are already included in a river basin.
