Ogun Assembly Screens Three Commissioner Nominees

The nominees promised to consolidate on their achievements during the first term if confirmed


On Monday, Governor Dapo Abiodun sent three more commissioner nominees to the Ogun House of Assembly for screening.

The Speaker, Mr. Olakunle Oluomo, oversaw the screening of the candidates at the Abeokuta assembly complex.

Mr. Wasiu Isiaka, a former senior special assistant to the governor on Ogun internally generated revenue, Mr. Olatunji Odunlami, a former commissioner in the ministry of physical planning and urban development, and Mrs. Funmi Efuwape, a former commissioner in the ministry of women affairs and social development, were the three commissioner-nominees who underwent screening.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), 17 commissioner nominees had already been vetted and approved by the state assembly but had not yet been sworn in by the governor.

The speaker enjoined the screened nominees to remain committed to quality service and avoid anything that could impede the progress and development of the state if confirmed.

The lawmakers, in their various contributions, urged them to look inward and design plans and programmes that would have a positive impact on the people of the state.

They charged the nominees to redouble their efforts to ensure the delivery of the dividends of democracy across the state.

Responding, the nominees promised to consolidate on their achievements during the first term if confirmed.

They assured that they would continue to synergise with the state legislature and other relevant stakeholders to implement policies and programmes for the development of the state.
