–Plateau Unity Market

–Plateau Trade Centre, and

–Plateau Trade City.

However, the doors remain open for more creative and impactful suggestions.

The new Market which will be built at Maraban Jama:a in Jos South Local Government Area, needs a name that is catchy, relevant, and timeless.

A name that reflects Plateau’s trade heritage and journey to economic freedom and prosperity.

Consequently, the Jos Market Authority urges all citizens, traders, and shareholders to participate in this historic naming.
