Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has sent second list of commissioner- nominees to the Lagos State House of Assembly for screening and confirmation.
The speaker of the house, Mudashiru Obasa confirmed the receipt f the nominees list at the plenary on Monday
On August 23, the state assembly declined to confirm 17 out of 39 commissioner-nominees recommended by the governor in the first list sent to the house.
Six former commissioners who served in the first term of Sanwo-Olu were among the nominees not cleared by the assembly.
There were criticisms against the house of assembly for refusing to confirm the 17 nominees.
Reacting to the backlash, Obasa said there was no fight between the lawmakers and the governor.
“There is no basis for the house or myself to fight the governor. The governor is a friend and colleague in serving Lagos state,” he had said.
“We will continue to work together and there is no reason to fight. But we have constitutional rights to say yes or no to his nominees.”
