The Lagos State House of Assembly has confirmed 15 out of the second batch of 18 commissioner-nominees re-sent by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
The Assembly however rejected two former commissioners Olalere Odusote and Samuel Egube, who were initially stepped down while the other former officials were confirmed.
Those who scaled through the second process include Professor Akin Abayomi, Gbenga Omotosho, Cécilia Dada and Mosopefoluwa George.
The confirmation and rejection was done after the Chief Whip and Chairman of the screening committee, Mojeed Fatai, presented a report of the exercise before the House.
At a sitting presided over by the Speaker of the House, Mudashiru Obasa, the House resolved to step down the confirmation of Sule Akibu for another legislative day.
Obasa commended the committee saying the members did a thorough job screening the nominees.
