A member of the state House of Assembly, Timothy Dantong, confirmed the development to The PUNCH in Jos on Thursday.
The lawmaker told our correspondent that the list of commissioners was drawn from each of the local government areas of the state and was read before the lawmakers by the Assembly Speaker, Moses Sule, during their plenary on Thursday.
Dantong said, “The state Assembly is in receipt of 16 Commissioner nominees sent to it by the state Governor, Barrister Caleb Mutfwang. The names of the Commissioner nominees were read on the floor of the House by the Speaker during our sitting today (Thursday). Nothing was done today on the list by the lawmakers but I’m sure we will start their screening on Tuesday or Wednesday next week when we will reconvene ”
