UN Secretary General António Guterres is expected in north-east Nigeria, to meet families affected by the Islamist insurgency, local media reported.
Mr Guterres is travelling from neighbouring Niger, another country that has been under sustained attacks from jihadist militants, the BBC reports.
He is pushing for robust African peace initiatives as well as counter-terrorism operations under the auspices of the African Union (AU).
He will also be having talks with the Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari on the impact on Africa of food and energy price increases exacerbated by the conflict in Ukraine.
This is the first visit of the UN secretary general to Nigeria.
