Dear User,
In the individual recode file the country specific state variable for Nigeria DHS 2013 is called SSTATE. In the household recode file the country specific variable for state is called SHSTATE. I looked at the weighted frequencies for each of the files and found the variables there. Hope this answers your question. Here is the frequency for SHSTATE:
Item SHSTATE: State
