The Assembly had received a letter from the governor seeking the screening and confirmation of six new nominees for cabinet positions.

At a sitting presided over by the Speaker, Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, the clerk of the House, Barr. Olalekan Onafeko, read the letter before the lawmakers quoting the governor as seeking the confirmation of a commissioner-nominee and five nominees in the position of special advisers.

While the letter only named the commissioner-nominee as Mr. Abiodun Ogunleye, the identities of the nominees for the position of special adviser were not mentioned, making the House to resolve to write back to the governor for the remaining identities.

Obasa, who agreed with the lawmakers that names should be attached to the letter, said: “it is necessary for us to know who and who would become part of the cabinet.”

Earlier, the deputy majority leader of the House, Hon. Adedamola Richard Kasunmu, observed that the letter did not follow the usual procedure of revealing the identities of the nominees.

“Thus, the process of not mentioning the names seems like coming through the backdoor,” he said.

He was supported by his colleagues, Hon. Ladi Ajomale and Hon. Owolabi Ajani, who said the previous lists from the governor had details of the nominees and that this made the screening by the ad-hoc committee easy.

“But in this case, it is only the commissioner-nominee that had a name attached to it and this is surprising. Maybe we should also pass information to the governor that the names should be specified,” Ajomale said.
