mssionary work in the territory now known as Yola Diocese, began with the
arrival of three Augustinian priests: Frs P.A. Dalton, D.B. Redmond and G.T Broder in Yola on January 21st 1940. The territory of Adamawa was then part of the Prefecture of Jos, the Prefecture of Makurdi and Karthoum. By 1950, the Adamawa territory became a Prefecture. On the 2nd July 1963, it was raised to the status of a diocese with Bishop Patrick Dalton as the first Bishop.
Bishop Patrick F. Sheehan became his successor in January 1971.
In 1963 and again in 1968, part of the territory of Yola in the North was transferred to the Prefecture of Maiduguri. In 1982, two local government areas of Benue/Makurdi diocese were transferred to Yola diocese -Takum and Wukari.
February 1955 witnessed the division of the then Yola Diocese into Yola and Jalingo Dioceses. The new ecclesiastical area now known as Jalingo Diocese covers the whole of Taraba State. One local Government area, Gombi, was detached from Maiduguri Diocese and was added to the diocese of Yola. On July 16, 1996 Bishop Patrick F. Sheehan was moved to be Bishop of the Apostolic Vicariate of Kano. Bishop Sheehan was replaced by Bishop Christopher Abba, formally of Minna Diocese. He was the third and first indigenous Bishop of Yola Diocese.
With the death of Bishop Christopher Abba on January 10, 2010, Bishop Stephen Dami Mamza was appointed as his successor on Feb 18, 2011. His Episcopal
