17 Nominees Rejected by Lagos State House of Assembly from Governor Sanwo-Olu's Commissioner List

17 Nominees Rejected by Lagos State House of Assembly from Governor Sanwo-Olu's Commissioner List.

In a surprising turn of events, the Lagos State House of Assembly has rejected a significant portion of the 39 commissioners-nominees submitted by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. Among the nominees who faced rejection were prominent figures such as Mrs. Folashade Adefisayo for the Education portfolio, Prof. Akin Abayomi for Health, and Gbenga Omotoso for Information and Strategy.

The list of the rejected 17 commissioner nominees includes several other notable names, such as Olalere Odusote (Energy), Mrs. Solape Hammod, Mrs. Cecilia Dada (Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation), and Mrs. Aramide Adeyoye (Works and Infrastructure). Also facing rejection were individuals like Sam Egube (Economic Budget and Planning), Yomi Oluyomi, Mrs. Folashade Ambrose, Ms. Barakat Bakare, Rotimi Fashola, Olalekan Fatodu, Mosopefolu George and among others

This unexpected development has sparked speculation about the reasons behind the Assembly's decision and its potential impact on the governor's administration. While the rejection of some key figures has raised eyebrows, it remains to be seen how Governor Sanwo-Olu will respond to this setback and whether he will put forth new nominees to fill these important positions. The political landscape in Lagos is bound to experience ripples as stakeholders await further updates on this unfolding situation.
