After 8 months, Gov. Adeleke submits list of commissioner-nominees to Osun Assembly

“The good thing is that the long wait is over, and the long-awaited list of commissioner nominees is here.”

• July 4, 2023

After eight months in office, Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun has submitted a list of commissioners and special advisers nominees to the state House of Assembly.

A statement by Olawale Rasheed, the spokesperson to the governor, on Tuesday in Osogbo said the list of the nominees would be read at the assembly’s plenary session when it resumes from its recess next week.

“The governor and the state leadership had done the needful, and the public should expect the list to be made public sooner than later.

“The delay was clearly due to many factors, among which are the protracted litigation on the outcome of the governorship election and the general elections.

“The good thing is that the long wait is over, and the long-awaited list of commissioner nominees is here,” he said.
