SGF swears in Buhari’s transition council committee

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, on Tuesday, inaugurated the presidential transition council committee with a mandate to facilitate seamless handover of power from the present administration to a new one.

President Muhammadu Buhari had on February 7, signed Executive Order No. 14 of 2023 on the Facilitation and Management of Presidential Transitions.
