Senior officials such as the Head of the Civil Service, the Head of the Local Government Service, and the Cabinet Secretary will provide support as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The committee directed that handing over notes from the various sectors be delivered promptly to sub-committee chairs to enable them to commence work immediately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These sub-committees are expected to submit initial findings within one week to facilitate the transition process. Outgoing sector ministers, agency heads, and technical staff will also be called upon to assist in discussions related to their respective sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Addressing concerns over ongoing recruitments and payments, the committee clarified that the outgoing administration\u2019s term officially ends at midnight on January 6, 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The statement further said that all such activities have been subjected to statutory approvals and are considered lawful unless proven otherwise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It was decided that any specific allegation of illegality about any particular payment or recruitment should be brought to the attention of the Transition Committee for a decision to be made,&#8221; part of the statement read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The committee also dismissed claims suggesting that all ongoing recruitments and payments had been halted or required direct referral to the Transition Team, stating that such reports did not reflect the decisions made during the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reaffirming its commitment to a seamless transition, the government expressed its readiness to collaborate with the incoming administration to ensure an orderly transfer of responsibilities on January 7, 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read the full statement below<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-12-13-at-10.41.43.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10032657715\"\/><\/figure>\n\n                <p><strong>DISCLAIMER: <\/strong>The Views, Comments, Opinions, Contributions and Statements made by Readers and Contributors on this platform do not necessarily represent the views or policy of Multimedia Group Limited.<\/p>      \n               \n <!-- Post Tags -->\n                \n\n                        \n\n    \n                                 \n                                             \n                    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Transition Committee, tasked with overseeing the transfer of power to the incoming administration, outlined key steps to ensure a smooth and effective handover process.
