According to a letter signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Anthony Ijohor (SAN), the commissioner-nominees are Dr Utsev Terlumun, Mr Isegbe Ladi, Mr Joseph Shimaor and Mr Unenge Bernard.

The Speaker of the House, Mr Terhemen Ikyange, said the nominees would appear for screening before the Assembly at a later date.
