Banifandou I (also: Banifandou 1 , Bani Fandou 1 , Bani Fandou I ) is a district ( French : quartier ) in Arrondissement Commune II of the city Niamey in Niger .

geography

Banifandou I is located in the north of the urban parish of Niamey. The neighboring districts are Lazaret and Banizoumbou II in the north, Cité Caisse and Banifandou II in the east, Djeddah Koira Mè and Tourakou in the south and Dar Es Salam in the west. Like the entire north of Niamey, the district is located in a plateau with a layer of sand less than 2.5 meters deep, which means that only limited infiltration is possible.

The standard scheme for street names in Banifandou I is rue BF 1 , where the French rue for street is followed by the abbreviation BF for Banifandou and finally a number. This goes back to a project to name streets in Niamey in 2002, in which the city was divided into 44 zones, each with its own letter abbreviations. The street names in the districts of Banifandou II and Cité Caisse follow the standard scheme of Rue BF 1 .
