The Nigerian National Assembly delegation from Plateau comprises three Senators representing Plateau South, Plateau Central, and Plateau North, and eight Representatives representing Barkin Ladi/Riyom, Jos North/Bassa, Jos South/Jos East, Langtang North/Langtang South, Mangu/Bokkos, Mikang/Shendam/Qua'an-Pan, Pankshin/Kanke/Kanam and Wase. Prior to the evolution of the Fourth Nigerian Republic, there existed the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Republics respectively before it. In the Third Nigerian Republic, there were the senatorial districts of Plateau North, Plateau East and Plateau West. The House of Representatives constituencies consisted of the individual Local Government Areas of the state qualified at that time as Federal constituencies.

Following the chaos of the botched IBB–Shonekan transition and the eventual seizure of power by Sani Abacha the Plateau political map was to undergo the following changes on 1 October 1996:

  • The creation of Nassarawa State out of Plateau State which will comprise most entities that made up Plateau West Senatorial Constituency.
  • The creation of the additional Local Government Areas of Riyom from Barkin Ladi, Jos East from Jos North and Mikang from Pankshin in the new Plateau State.
