Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has announced the appointment of one of his reliable aides Samuel Egube as Deputy the Deputy Chief of Staff.

Egube was the former Commissioner for Economic Planning and Budget in the first term of the Sanwo-Olu administration.

His reappointment was rejected by the Lagos lawmakers who had insisted that the governor appoints more qualified politicians in the cabinet.
