Unlocking Nigeria's Livestock Potential: Minister Reveals Why New Ministry Hasn't Taken Off Yet


The Minister of Agriculture and Food Security, Abubakar Kyari, has shed light on the reasons behind the delay in the establishment of the Ministry of Livestock Development, a new ministry announced by President Bola Tinubu. According to Kyari, President Tinubu is committed to harnessing the vast opportunities in the livestock sector.


Speaking to State House Correspondents after a meeting with the Livestock Committee co-chairman, Attahiru Jega, Kyari explained that the ministry will take off once the President receives the report from the Jega-led committee. "Mr. President has expressed his excitement and anxiety to see this initiative take off. He is waiting for the report from the committee, and once it's submitted, the Ministry of Livestock will be up and running," Kyari said.





Kyari expressed confidence that the committee's report will provide solutions and results in the livestock industry, both in the short and long term. "I'm sure that the report will be a game-changer for the livestock sector, and I'm happy to see the progress being made," he added.


Attahiru Jega, co-chairman of the Livestock Committee, acknowledged that the task ahead is challenging but emphasized that the committee is committed to delivering a report that will improve the livestock sector. "We have received great encouragement from Mr. President, and we're focused on delivering a report that will add tremendous value to the country," Jega said.


The committee's report, if successfully implemented, is expected to mitigate crises associated with the livestock sector and unlock new opportunities for the country. Nigerians can expect recommendations from the committee that will help achieve these goals and drive growth in the livestock industry.
