Strong indications have emerged that the Osun State House of Assembly is set to announce the names of the commissioners and special advisers appointed by Governor Rauf Aregbesola.

Aregbesola was sworn into office for a second term in 2014 and since then, the state executive council has not been constituted.

The issue has raised a lot of concerns among a cross-section of analysts.
THISDAY gathered that all things being equal, the assembly might make the announcement any moment from now.

It was gathered that the list of the commissioners and special adviser-designates was submitted to the state parliament Wednesday morning.

A top lawmaker in the state who confided in THISDAY, said the assembly is likely to make the announcement next week Monday.

Some of the former commissioners who have made the list according to a source are Dr. Basiru Ajibola, Biyi Odunlade and Ismaila Jayeioba Alagbada, among others.

It was also gathered that most of the former commissioners and special advisers were dropped by the governor.
