The nominees are Taiwo Oludotun, Hamzat Ganiyu, Adijat Adeleye-Oladapo, Ola Oresanya and Abayomi Hunye.
The governor’s confirmation request was contained in a letter dated June 30, 2022, and read at Thursday’s plenary by the Speaker, Olakunle Oluomo.
The speaker thereafter referred the governor’s request to the relevant committee for further legislative action.

Abiodun had promised to compensate aspirants who lost out during the primaries.
