After the controversy which trailed the earlier list sent by Governor Babajide Sanwo Olu to the Lagos State House of Assembly that led to a face off between Speaker, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa and the Lagos State Governor following the failure of the Lawmakers to confirm the Commissioner- Nominees, calm has returned.
The LAHA Lawmakers on Tuesday approved a list of nominees for the State Executive Council, SEC, and some agencies and parastatals.
At a sitting presided over by the Speaker of the House, the Lawmakers approved Kemi Ogunyemi as a member of the Executive Council.
The lawmakers also confirmed Peregrine Victoria Mopelola as Chairman of the Lagos State Teaching Service Commission while Ajenifuja Kafayat Adetokunbo was confirmed as a member of the Commission.

* Mr. Olagunju Cole – General Manager, Lagos State Number Plate Production Authority;
* Mr. Rasheed Muri-Okunola – General Manager, Motor Vehicle Administration Agency.
Their confirmation, through a voice vote, followed the presentation of a report by the Chief Whip of the House, Hon. Fatai Mojeed, who chaired the ad-hoc committee that screened the nominees.
Hon. Mojeed said the nominees were properly grilled and met the criteria to serve the State.
