Peter Gai, the commissioner in the ministry, disclosed this during a press conference on Thursday in Jos.
Mr Gai said that the number surpassed the record set over the eight years of the previous administration.
He explained that the recorded figure was made possible by the innovations, resilience, and commitment of the ministry’s staff to excellence.
