I have a Sharepoint Framework webpart which basically has a property side bar where I can select the Sharepoint List, and based on the selection it will render the list items from that list into an Office UI DetailsList Component.

When I debug the REST calls are all fine, however the problem is I never get any data rendered on the screen. 

so If I select GenericList it should query Generic LIst, if I select Directory it should query the Directory list, however when I select Directory it still says that the selection is GenericList, not directory.

This is my webpart code
