According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Governor Rauf Aregbesola had on July 27 forwarded a list of 14 commissioner-nominees and 20 special advisers to the House.

While the House was to confirm the commissioner-nominees, it was also to approve the chosen special advisers.

At Monday's screening in Osogbo, Olumuyiwa, who is an architect, told the House that he would contribute his quota to the development of Osun when given the opportunity.

The lawmakers later told him to take a bow and go due to the contribution his late father made to uplift democracy in Osun, the old Oyo and the country as a whole.
