A report on Ekekee.com suggests that the General
Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly Pastor Tunde Bakare will head the
transition committee of the President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari.
The transition committee is responsible for the smooth handover between the outgoing administration and the incoming one for the sake of government continuity.
The 60-year-old fiery preacher had recently advised the president-elect to start the fight against corruption from his inner circle and show a good example, saying change cannot be realized if this was not done.
Just last month, Bakare had described Buhari as a man of integrity who he has a high level of respect for.
Bakare advised Buhari before the presidential poll to accept defeat if the APC lost, and join hands with the winner to lead the nation to greater heights. He also said that he was in doubt about the reliability of “Buhari’s environment.
