In a significant development, the Lagos State House of Assembly has given its seal of approval to 22 individuals out of the 39 cabinet nominees recently put forth by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. This decisive move was carried out during a session chaired by the Speaker of the House, Rt Hon Mudashiru Obasa. He highlighted that the endorsement came about after an exhaustive and meticulous evaluation of the nominees by a special ad-hoc committee headed by the Chief Whip of the House, Hon. Fatai Mojeed.
Commending the committee's thoroughness, Speaker Obasa emphasized the nominees' responsibility to uphold their role as public servants, serving the greater good of the state's populace rather than catering to personal interests. The Speaker also reiterated the House's unwavering commitment to advancing the welfare of the state.
The confirmation process transpired through a voice vote, where Speaker Obasa announced the names of the nominees one by one. Nonetheless, it's noteworthy that the Assembly withheld approval for 17 of the nominees, reflecting the conscientious approach taken by the legislators in their evaluation.
This development marks a pivotal step in shaping the governance landscape of Lagos State. As the newly confirmed members prepare to take on their official duties, the spotlight remains on their dedication to fulfilling their obligations for the betterment of the state and its citizens. The Lagos State House of Assembly's rigorous screening process underscores its commitment to ensuring that only the most qualified and dedicated individuals are entrusted with the task of steering the state toward progress and prosperity.
