Tafa Towns And Villages

Tafa is a Local Government Area in Niger State, Nigeria, on the FCT border southeast of Suleja. Its headquarters sits at Wuse (Sabon Wuse), one of ten wards along with Dogon Kurmi, Garam, Ija Gwari, Ija Koro, Iku, New Bwari, Wuse East, Zuma East and Zuma West.

The 2006 census counted 83,874 residents. Projections put the 2022 figure near 143,900, reflecting the Abuja-corridor sprawl reaching Gauraka and the wards along the Suleja-Minna road.
