Governor of Kwara state, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has nominated Joana Nnazua Kolo, a 26-year-old as a commissioner in his first cabinet list.
In a statement on Tuesday, Rafiu Ajakaye, chief press secretary to the governor said if confirmed, Kolo will be Nigeria’s youngest commissioner.
TheLagostimes gathered that Kolo is a 2018 graduate of Library Science of Kwara State University (KWASU).
“A grassroots mobiliser, Miss Kolo is an ardent advocate of community development,” Ajakaye said.
“If confirmed, she would be Nigeria’s youngest commissioner, taking the trophy from Oyo State’s 27-year-old Oluwaseun Fakorede”.
