Former Commissioner for Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Chief Mrs Lola Akande, the Lagos State Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Mr Joe Igbokwe, and former Special Adviser to the former governor on Transportation Anofiu Olanrewaju Elegushi made the final list of Commissioners and Special Advisers nominees of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
The governor transmitted the final list of his cabinet to the State House of Assembly on Tuesday.
This is coming four weeks after the Governor sent the first batch of the list to the lawmakers for screening.
A statement by the Deputy Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Gboyega Akosile, said the second list had names of accomplished politicians and technocrats who “understand the current need of Lagos” and the development agenda of the Governor.”
Thirteen Commissioners and Special Advisers-designates made the second list.
The Governor’s media aide said the selection process was rigorous, because of the need to constitute the best team that would serve Lagos in line with the Sanwo-Olu administration’s vision of delivering a state that will rank among the most livable cities in the world.
Other names forwarded by the governor to the lawmakers for screening are; former Chairman of Agboyi-Ketu Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Mrs Yetunde Arobieke, Mr Oladele Ajayi, Mr Oluwatoyin Fayinka, Mr Bonu Solomon Saanu and Arc Kabiru Ahmed and Mr Olanrewaju Sanusi.
Others are Mrs Solape Hammond, Mr Morouf Akinderu Fatai, Mrs Shulamite Olufunke Adebolu and Mr Tokunbo Wahab.
