The Lagos State House of Assembly on Wednesday confirmed 22 out of the 39 cabinet nominees sent to the assembly by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for screening.
Speaking during plenary, Speaker of the House, Rt Hon Mudashiru Obasa said the confirmation followed rigorous and detailed screening of the nominees by an ad-hoc committee led by the Chief Whip of the House, Hon. Fatai Mojeed.
He commended the committee for its effectiveness and urged the confirmed nominees to always remember that they are in office to serve the people of the State and not individuals.
He also promised that the House would continue to do its best in the interest of the State.
The confirmation was done through a voice vote as Obasa mentioned the name of each of the nominees.
However, the lawmakers rejected 17 of the nominees.
