dbo:abstract
  • The Office of the Secretary to the Government was tasked with administering cabinet concerns, security, establishments, home affairs, and information when the newly constituted Lagos State took off administratively in April 1968. The responsibility for information service was transferred to the military Governor's office as the business of governance got more complex. In essence, the ministry changed its name from the Secretary of State's Office to the Military Government. With Mr. Badmus as the first Commissioner, it eventually grew into a full-fledged Ministry of Information and Tourism. In April 1971, the Ministry of Information was founded as a separate entity on Victoria Island to handle government contact with the public and the press. The Lagos State Ministry of Information and Strategy is the state government ministry, charged with the responsibility to plan, devise and implement the state policies on Information and Strategy. The Ministry was restructured and reorganized in November 2015, under the administration of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, via Lagos state government circular No.141 dated November 9, 2015, which changed some of the names of existing departments, created a new department, and changed the nomenclature of the Ministry's officers. As a result of this move, all officers in the Ministry who were previously known as "Information Officers" have been renamed "Public Affairs Officers." While the departments are currently referred to as: * Public Enlightenment & Community Relations * Information Production * ICT/Social Media (New) * Public Affairs Department (Formally called Press and Public Relations) * Administration/Human Resources (Formally called Finance& Admin.) * Strategy (en)
