Lawmakers confirm 36 commissioners for Lagos


The Lagos State House of Assembly, yesterday, approved 36 commissioners designate  for the state.

However, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode is expected  by law, to inaugurate the state Executive council any moment from now by swearing in the appointees.
The confirmation of the cabinet members took place during plenary of the Assembly,  preceded by the presentation of the report of the 15-man adhoc committee set up  two weeks ago to screen the nominees. The presentation was led by the Chairman of the committee, Hon. Wasiu Sanni Eshinlokun.
The only nominee who could not be screened originally because she was resident in the United Kingdom, Mrs Yetunde Onabule, was said to have rushed down to Lagos to beat  yesterday’s public hearing. She was also screened and approved.
In presenting the report, Eshinlokun revealed that all the nominees were invited by the committee and that they all submitted copies of their Curriculum Vitaes, CVs, and certificates, which were thoroughly verified by the committee.
According to him; ‘’All the nominees submitted required document and original certificates for sighting and asked pertinent questions on issues that pertain to the state and that  each of the nominees was endorsed by the lawmaker representing their constituencies, cleared by the committee and confirmed by the House. The lawmakers also took turns to commend the committee for the job.’’
