Gombe is one of the 36 states of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, located in the north eastern part of the country.
The state was created out of Bauchi state on 1st October 1996 by the Late General Sani Abacha’s Administration.
Its creation was a fulfilment of the aspiration of the people who for long, had passionately craved for a state of their own out of the then Bauchi state.
Gombe State has eleven Local Government Areas (LGA) namely, Akko, Balanga, Billiri, Dukku, Funakaye, Gombe, Kaltungo, Kwami, Nafada, Shongom, and Yamaltu Deba.
