Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has approved the creation of two new ministries in Kwara State to enhance governance efficiency and address critical development priorities.

The newly established ministries are the Ministry of Transportation and the Ministry of Livestock Development, bringing the total number of ministries in the state to 22.

This is contained in a statement signed by the Commissioner for Communications, Mrs. Bolanle Olukoju.


According to the statement, the decision was announced on Wednesday after the weekly executive council meeting, presided over by the governor.

“The restructuring is to enhance efficiency, improve coordination, and align governance with the state’s growing development priorities,” the government stated.

“The Ministry of Livestock Development, carved out of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, will focus on boosting food security and strengthening livestock farming across Kwara’s 16 local government areas.

It added that the ministry will play a crucial role in supporting farmers, herders, processors, and distributors across the livestock value chain.

Similarly, the Ministry of Transportation was carved out of the Ministry of Works and Transport to improve transportation policies, road safety measures, and urban mobility within the state.
