Kwara Assembly Unveils Gov AbdulRazaq’s Commissioner Nominees (FULL LIST)

Eko Hot Blog reports that the Kwara State House of Assembly has unveiled the list of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’s commissioner nominees.

Recall that Sheu Abdulkadir Yusuf, the Chief Press Secretary to the Speaker, Yakubu Danladi-Salihu, had in July disclosed that the governor had sent the name of 20 commissioner-nominees to the legislature for confirmation without releasing their names.

The speaker’s spokesperson also revealed that AbdulRazaq sought legislative approval to appoint 10 special advisers to work with the administration in various capacities.

However, in a statement on Monday, Yusuf unveiled only 18 names of commissioner-nominees.
