Dear Giovanny,
Yes, the calculations in the final report were based on v101 and the state codes.
I looked in the documentation distributed with the data and there was an alert regarding the regions. You are correct. The state labels had been interchanged. I suggest downloading the latest version of the Nigeria DHS 2008 data,the NGIR52 file. In Nigeria 2008 we do use v101 for the tabulations and the two are supposed to be the same (except that v024 was added for incomplete interviews too). In fact that is why v024 exists just so the region information was available for incomplete interviews.

Please feel free to post again if this does not answer your question.
Thank you
