Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Monday, transmitted a second list of commissioner-nominees to the Lagos State House of Assembly.

Immediate past Commissioner for Health in the state, Prof. Akin Abayomi, and ex-Commissioner for Information, Gbenga Omotosho, who were among the 17 nominees rejected by the House, made the new list.

The new list contains 18 names and read by the Speaker Mudashiru Obasa on the floor of the assembly on Monday.
