Ministries

Driving Governance, Development & Public Service

The ministries of Delta State form the administrative backbone of the Executive branch. Each ministry is responsible for specific sectors of governance, policy implementation, and service delivery across the state.

At the All Deltan Forum, we aim to provide citizens with clear, accessible information about how government ministries operate, their responsibilities, and how they contribute to Delta State’s growth.

  • Public Service Delivery
