Otunba Olusegun Runsewe, NTDC director, recently told Plateau State governor, Jonah Jang, that the capital Jos is known worldwide for its good weather and peaceful nature. He added that the state is suitable for health and ecotourism because of its natural beauty.

The NTDC boss said his institution will:

  • Build a state-of-the-art motor park in Jos which will create 136 employment opportunities;
  • Provide 20 buses to the state. The state will have to cover 25% of the busses' cost, while the outstanding 75% will be paid from the revenue made through its operation;
  • Help to fully develop the Kurara Falls;
  • Join hands with the state to promote the Nzem Beron festival to the world.

    In his response, Governor Jonah Jang, said he is keen to partner with the NTDC in order to make Plateau State 'nothing but the best in this nation'.
