A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Lagos, Joe Igbokwe, has made the list of the new commissioners and special advisers nominated by the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration.
Igbokwe created controversy on Tuesday after saying on Channels TV Politics Today that anyone who criticised the President Muhammadu Buhari administration for non-performance was from the pit of hell.
The governor also appointed a Fulani man from Katsina State, Arc. Kabiru Ahmed. Ahmed served as Executive Secretary, Lagos State Water Regulatory Board. Also on the list is a former Commissioner for Women Affairs in Lagos State, Mrs Lola Akande.
Sanwo-Olu, according to a statement, transmitted the final list of his nominees to the state House of Assembly on Tuesday.

Recall that four weeks ago the governor sent the first batch of the list to the lawmakers for screening.
Thirteen commissioner- and special adviser-designates made the second list, which had already been transmitted to the legislature.
The statement, signed by the Deputy Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Gboyega Akosile, said the second list had names of accomplished politicians and technocrats who “understand the current need of Lagos” and the development agenda of the Governor.
