The Kano State administration has officially combined the Ministry of Water Resources with the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, creating a unified body aimed at enhancing government effectiveness.
Under the new structure, the two previously separate departments will operate together as the Ministry of Water Resources, Environment and Climate Change.
Commissioner Dahir M. Hashim announced the move on Monday via a Facebook post, stating that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf approved the merger as part of broader reforms to improve service delivery.
“I am delighted to inform the public that His Excellency, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, has sanctioned the consolidation of the Ministry of Water Resources and the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change into a single entity, renamed the Ministry of Water Resources, Environment and Climate Change,” Hashim said.
