President Bola Tinubu on Friday appointed Prof. Attahiru Jega, a former chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, as Presidential Adviser and Coordinator of Presidential Livestock Reforms.
This was confirmed by Tinubu’s media aide, Bayo Onanuga, via his verified X account.
“Breaking: President Bola Tinubu appoints Professor Attahiru Jega as Presidential Adviser and Coordinator of Presidential Livestock Reforms,” Onanuga wrote.
Jega served as INEC chairman from 2010 to 2015.
Tinubu established the Ministry of Livestock Development in July 2024 to provide sector-focused solutions to the long-standing farmers-herders crisis.
Following a recommendation by the National Livestock Reforms Committee, the Ministry of Livestock Resources is expected, among other objectives, to mitigate the decades-long violent conflict between farmers and nomadic cattle herders nationwide.
