Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly says he’s not aware of any appointment to head the Transition Committee of the President-Elect Muhammadu Buhari as reported by some newspapers on Monday.
He denied the transition committee appointment through his spokesperson Yinka Odumakin.
“This is news to Pastor Bakare also. He read it in Thisday Newspaper as others did this morning,” Odumakin said.
He added that “mischief makers are at work as usual.”
The spokesperson of the Buhari campaign office Garba Shehu also said he wasn’t aware of Bakare’s appointment when Daily Trust contacted him on Monday.
In an interview in Daura, Buhari said the transition committee when put in place would comprise of patriotic and knowledgeable Nigerians.
The president-elect said the committee won’t be too big and will contain more technocrats than politicians.
