Years ofStatehood
Plateau State was created on 3 February 1976 from the former Benue-Plateau State. Located in Nigeria's North Central zone, the state is home to over 4 million people across 17 Local Government Areas, with Jos as its vibrant capital city — known as "J-Town" or the "Tin City."
With a temperate highland climate averaging 18–22°C, Plateau State is Nigeria's top producer of Irish potatoes, strawberries, and temperate vegetables — and a premier destination for tourism, culture, and natural heritage.
Learn MoreThe Plateau State Government is led by His Excellency Governor Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang, sworn in on 29 May 2023. The administration operates through 20 ministries, numerous agencies and parastatals, a bicameral system comprising the State House of Assembly and the State Executive Council.
Key agencies include the Plateau State Internal Revenue Service (PSIRS), Plateau State Investment Promotion Agency (PSIPA), and the Plateau State Agricultural Development Programme (PADP) — each serving the people of Plateau State.
