Nigeria Livestock Development Faces Digital Deficit: No Website or Contact Info, Making It Only Ministry Lacking An Online Presence

Months after its creation, Nigeria’s Federal Ministry of Livestock Development (FMLD) remains without a website, making it the only ministry in the country lacking an online presence.

A review revealed that the ministry also has no official social media accounts. The FMLD was proposed by President Bola Tinubu during the inauguration of the Presidential Committee on Livestock Reforms in July 2024.

Tinubu emphasized the sector’s potential to boost agricultural productivity, enhance exports, and stimulate economic growth by developing a strong value chain that benefits farmers, processors, herders, distributors, and consumers.

The committee, set up in September 2023, aims to reform the livestock industry and address the ongoing conflicts between pastoralists and farmers over land, pasture, and water.

It was established following a report from the national conference on livestock reforms and conflict mitigation in Nigeria. The committee presented 21 recommendations, including the establishment of the Ministry of Livestock Resources.

The president announced that he would chair the committee, with former INEC Chairman Attahiru Jega serving as co-chair. [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>>
