Meanwhile, Professor Dahud Shangodoyin, who held that Public Works portfolio, takes over Energy and Mineral Resources.
In the education sector, Professor Solihu Adelabu has been reassigned to the Ministry of Establishments and Training, while Segun Olayiwola, formerly in that ministry, becomes the new Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology.
In a letter signed by the Governor’s Chief of Staff, Segun Ogunwuyi, the affected commissioners were asked to maintain their commitment to the state’s development agenda during this transition period.
