About National Veterinary Research Institute Jos

The National Veterinary Research Institute in Vom, 30km south of Jos, is one of Africa's oldest and most significant veterinary research institutions — established by the colonial government in 1924 to address the animal diseases threatening Northern Nigeria's livestock economy. Today it remains one of Nigeria's leading scientific institutions, producing vaccines used across the continent, and the campus itself is a remarkable piece of institutional history set in the cool plateau landscape. The institute accepts visitors with prior arrangement, offering a fascinating window into scientific Nigeria.
