26-yr-old corps member makes #Kwara’s Commissioner-nominees’ List

Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has forwarded the names of four women to the State House of Assembly as commissioner-nominees, including a 26-year-old Joana Nnazua Kolo.

Miss Kolo, the youngest commissioner-nominee in the state’s history, is a 2018 graduate of Library Science from the Kwara State University (KWASU). A grassroots mobiliser, Miss Kolo is an ardent advocate of community development.

If confirmed, she would be Nigeria’s youngest commissioner, taking the trophy from Oyo State’s 27-year-old Oluwaseun Fakorede.

Miss Kolo is still having her National Youths Service Corps (NYSC) programme in Jigawa, where she is teaching at Model Boarding Junior Secondary School Guri. .

Her screening for the cabinet seat would hold after she rounds off her NYSC service in the next two weeks.
