Land Reform, Agriculture, PPPs Lead Kwara's Aggressive 2026 Action Plan

Date: 2025-12-11

The Kwara State Government has launched an ambitious 2026 Action Plan designed to fast-track economic growth, sharpen public service delivery, and raise living standards across all 16 local government areas.

The blueprint rests on five core pillars: modernised land administration, intensified investment in agriculture for food security, expanded public-private partnerships and export promotion, accelerated infrastructure rollout, and swift justice sector reforms, each supported by precise timelines and measurable targets.

Dr Hauwa Nuru, Commissioner for Finance and Chairman of the Kwara State Ease of Doing Business Council, unveiled the plan at a stakeholders' forum, stressing the administration's unwavering commitment to transparency, accountability, and broad-based participation.

She highlighted that land reforms, investment-led agriculture, PPP scaling, infrastructure expansion, and justice delivery improvements will receive priority funding and monitoring under the World Bank-supported SABER programme to guarantee tangible outcomes.

"The essence of Ease of Doing Business is to create an ecosystem where government and private players collaborate seamlessly to spark innovation, attract investment, and deliver sustainable prosperity under Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq's leadership," Dr Nuru stated.

Engr. AbdulQuawiy Olododo, Commissioner for Works, reaffirmed the government's determination to ramp up statewide infrastructure, including roads, bridges, electricity, water supply, healthcare facilities, and schools, to draw private capital and ignite economic activity.

Also speaking, the Commissioner for Business, Innovation and Technology, Mrs. Damilola Yusuf Adelodun, stated that the State now operates a transparent and predictable investment promotion framework designed to support companies, cooperatives, and local investors with accessible procedures and competitive incentives.

The Executive Chairman of the Kwara State Geographic Information Service (KWGIS), Mallam Sulyman Abdulkareem, highlighted the recently launched land digitalization system as a major milestone in improving transparency and efficiency in land governance.

He said the digital platform will streamline records, title issuance, and related transactions, significantly reducing processing times and improving tenure security for citizens and investors.

The Accountant General of the State, Mallam Abdulganiyu Sanni, praised the reforms, noting that transparent, well-published fees, procedures, and service timelines have boosted public trust and reinforced the State's commitment to efficient, accountable service delivery.

Stakeholders also expressed strong support. Chairman of the Nigeria Association of Small Scale Industrialists (NASSI), Mr. Olawoyin Yinka Solomon, lauded the government's policies for improving the business climate.

The Vice Chairman of the National Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (NASME), Kwara State Chapter, Alh. Babatunde Ganiyu Aremu, commended ongoing efforts to maintain a supportive environment for MSMEs.
