L‑R: President Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) and Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on COVID‑19, Boss Mustapha, in Abuja on Tuesday.
The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, advised the incoming administration to study President Muhammadu Buhari’s regime and learn from it. Mustapha noted that the current government had acquired valuable lessons that would benefit the next administration. He made this observation while inaugurating the presidential transition council in Abuja on Tuesday.
The transition committee is mandated to ensure a seamless handover of power from the Buhari administration to its successor. Among its duties are facilitating the transfer from the current President to the President‑elect, organizing security for the President‑elect and Vice President‑elect, and coordinating security briefings on post‑election national security matters.
Mustapha said, “In a few months it will be eight years that the Buhari administration has been in power. During this period we have made significant strides in advancing the fortunes of our nation, and we have also learned lessons that will be useful for the incoming administration. It is on the strength of this trajectory that the current administration is committing itself to making the 2023 transition process seamless for the incoming President and his team.
“Our achievements must be preserved. The reforms that enabled those achievements must therefore be documented and communicated in clear terms, so the incoming administration understands what we have done, the basis of our decisions, what we achieved, and the opportunities for continuity.”
