President Bola Tinubu is set to introduce a new Ministry of Livestock Development, along with a possible cabinet reshuffle, following the submission of a detailed report from the Livestock Reforms Committee.
The 152-page document, outlining strategic goals for the livestock sector over the next decade, was presented to the President on Thursday at the State House in Abuja.
Professor Attahiru Jega, Co-Chair of the committee, handed over the report to Tinubu and later briefed State House correspondents.

Jega stressed that the report serves as a significant step toward addressing the major challenges facing Nigeria’s livestock industry and provides a clear framework for the creation of the new ministry.
