Bosso is a Local Government Area in Niger State, Nigeria.

Gimbiya is the only female that has served as the chairman of the local government twice since by the IBB administration.

Bosso is the home of one of the campuses of the Federal University of Technology Minna.

In 2014, Bosso became home to thousands of refugees fleeing fighting in Borno State.

The government of Niger State requested help from UNHCR to build temporary facilities; additional funding is needed for shelter, water, and food.
