Prominent names on the list include Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and Lola Akande, a former Commissioner for Women Affairs.

Others are Oladele Ajayi, Oluwatoyin Fayinka, Yetunde Arobieke, Olanrewaju Sanusi, Bonu Solomon Saanu, Kabiru Ahmed, Anofi Olanrewaju Elegushi, Solape Hammond, Moruf Akinderu Fatai, Shulamite Olufunke Adebolu, Tokunbo Wahab.

Akosile said the nominees were carefully selected to serve Lagos State in accordance with the vision and development agenda of Sanwo-Olu's administration.
