The recent list of nominees which was forwarded to the house by the Kwara State Governor comprised five women and one man.

The Governor in a statement through his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, noted that the complete list was revealed after the governor apologised to and pledged to compensate women for their loss at the general election.

The speaker of the House, Yakubu Danladi, while unveiling the names at the floor of the house, said the screening of the nominees would begin on October 29.

The latest nominees are Afolabi-Oshatimehin Adenike Harriet (Ifelodun); Ahmad Fatima Bisola (Ilorin West); Aremu Bose Deborah (Irepodun); Oyedun Juliana Funke (Isin); Oyeyemi Olasumbo Florence (Oke Ero); and Suleiman Rotimi Iliasu (Moro).

AbdulRazaq had initially released a four-woman list which was followed a few weeks ago by another list of six men.

According to the report, Kwara will have nine women (56.25 percent) and seven men (43.75 percent) in the state executive council.
