Kwara Governor Reshuffles Cabinet, Inaugurates Olohungbebe and Nnafatima

Date: 2025-03-10

Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Monday inaugurated Dr. Lawal Olohungbebe and Dr. Maryam Nnafatima Imam as commissioners, urging them to prioritise teamwork and align with the administration's efforts to consolidate its achievements across sectors.

The inauguration prompted a cabinet reshuffle:

Dr. Olohungbebe was assigned to the Ministry of Education and Human Capital Development, while Dr. Nnafatima will lead the Ministry of Social Development.

Hajia Sa'adatu Modibbo Kawu moves to the Ministry of Tertiary Education.

Dr. Mary Arinde takes charge of the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development.

Lafia Aliyu Kora Sabi heads the newly created Ministry of Transportation.

Olohuntoyosi Thomas Adebayo transitions from Agriculture and Rural Development to the Ministry of Livestock Development.

Olohuntoyosi is replaced by Dr. Afeez Abolore, whose Solid Minerals is now to be led by Abosede Olaitan Buraimoh, who was in charge of the Social Development.

Speaking shortly after the inauguration, Governor AbdulRazaq said the new commissioners got a “deserving elevation” from their previous roles as Senior Special Assistants.

“Today marks not just the beginning of a new chapter for the commissioners-designate but, expectedly, a renewed commitment to serving the people of Kwara State with dedication, integrity, and vision,” he said.

“In leadership, and especially in public service, the strength of any administration lies in the power of teamwork. Be mindful that our mission is to collaborate, combining our strengths and ideas to leave Kwara far better than we met it.

“As is clear to everyone, our government has delivered very substantial, measurable progress in different sectors. We have set new standards in public education, primary healthcare, rural and urban development, infrastructure upgrade, social inclusion, structured social protection, and wealth redistribution initiatives.

“As you both step into your new roles, I urge you to embrace creativity, to always touch base with the people, to think outside the box, and to apply prudence in every decision made.

“I congratulate you once again, and I wish you God's guidance in the service of our state.”
