“The announcements will be made today baring a last minute change of decision,” a source privy to the development said last night.
He added that the president’s trip to Niger and Chad may be the only
factors that may delay the announcement. Meanwhile, a senior associate
of the president traced the delay in the announcement of senior aides to
the delay in the transmission of the handover notes by the Jonathan
officials to the transition team constituted by Buhari ahead of his
inauguration.
“All we have been doing since Friday is poring over these notes. This is because you need to know the position of things before you delegate the appropriate personnel to any establishment of government,” a source privy to the ongoing developments told Vanguard

Sources close to the President and the ruling APC disclosed that the
president would make known the senior officials of his government soon.
Besides the Chief of Staff and SGF, other officials to be named may
include the Special Adviser to the National Assembly, Political Adviser
among senior aides of the president.
The delay in the announcement of senior officials of the new
administration, is due to the delay by the former officials of Goodluck
Jonathan administration in forwarding their handover notes.
