The speaker directed the two nominees to appear before the House on Monday by noon, for screening.
He said they must submit 30 copies of their curriculum vitae and credentials by Friday.
Also during plenary, the assembly confirmed the governor’s nominees for the post of chairmen and members of statutory commissions and boards in the state.
Mr Yusuf Sherif, the Majority Leader, read the report of the selection committee on the screening of the nominees.
He said that they were found suitable and eligible for the assignments.
Sherif moved the motion for the adoption of the report, seconded by the Minority Leader, Ganiyu Oyedeji.
He listed the names of the statutory boards as Ogun Civil Service Commission, Ogun Local Government Service Commission and House of Assembly Service Commission.
Others are the State Universal Basic Education Board and Ogun State Civil Service Commission.
In his remark, the speaker charged the nominees to put their wealth of experience to work.
He urged them to make themselves instruments of cordial relationship between the executive and the legislature.
Also at plenary, the speaker appealed to Gov. Abiodun to, as a matter of urgency, organise a security summit involving Nigeria Customs Service, traditional rulers and people at the border areas in the state.
Oluomo said some people alleged continuous harassment by Customs personnel, which made it imperative for the summit.
Earlier, while speaking under ‘personal explanation’, the lawmaker representing Ado Odo Ota 11, Musefiu Lamidi, had complained about the overzealousness of the customs officers.
Lamidi said that the activities of some customs officers needed to be checked.
