Largest island in the Niger River

Lété Island is the largest island in the Niger River, at a length of approximately 16 kilometres and a width of 4 kilometres. Together with other smaller islands in the Niger River, it was the main focus of a border dispute between Niger and Benin, which began when the two countries were still under French rule. The island was historically used by semi-nomadic Fula cattle herders as a dry season pasturage, but farmers began permanently settling on the island after the resolution of the border dispute in 2005.
