NIYEEDEP is the biggest intervention program aimed at improving the lives of Nigerians
Today, I welcomed Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), to Lagos House, Ikeja, for a courtesy visit.
I commended him for the remarkable transformation he has brought to JAMB. His dedication, integrity, and commitment to excellence have not gone unnoticed, and I assured him that Lagos State is fully committed to continuing our collaboration with JAMB.
Together, I believe we can achieve even more significant milestones to benefit our state and the entire country by enhancing the educational landscape and creating opportunities for our youth.

FG CONFIRMS OUTBREAK OF ANTHRAX IN ZAMFARA STATE
The Federal Ministry of Livestock Development has confirmed the outbreak of Anthrax in Zamfara State.
Anthrax, caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracite, is a zoonotic disease that can affect various warm-blooded animals such as cattle, sheep, goats, horses, and wildlife, as well as humans.
While Anthrax is preventable through coordinated efforts such as risk assessment, surveys, and ring vaccination of susceptible animals in high-risk areas, prompt detection and response are critical to containing its spread.
A statement signed by the Director information and public relations Ben Bem Goong states that the ministry remains committed to collaborating with all stakeholders to ensure a swift and effective response.
