President Goodluck Jonathan may name Vice-President Namadi Sambo as the head of the transition committee he will set up to ensure a smooth handover of power to the President-elect, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).

According to The PUNCH, it was learnt from a top government official on Tuesday that the composition of the committee might be made public this week.‎
Although he did not name other members of the proposed committee, the official disclosed that no serving minister would be included.
He explained that the reason why ministers would be exempted was because   many of them would appear before the committee.

Shedding light on the committee, the official, who asked not to be named, said when constituted, it would have four terms of reference.
"The President will constitute the committee this week. Vice-President Sambo may head the   team since the Vice President-elect, Yemi Osinbajo, is said to be heading the incoming government's team," he said.

The issue of smooth transition between Jonathan and Buhari was said to have dominated the discussion they had inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Friday.
That was the first time the two leaders would be meeting since the Independent National Electoral Commission declared Buhari winner of the March 28 presidential election.
The meeting which was described as "private" was held at the new Banquet Hall inside the President's office.

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, John Odiegie-Oyegun, was said to have accompanied Buhari to the meeting that lasted about 30 minutes.

A former Head of State, who is also the Chairman of the National Peace Committee for the 2015 General Elections, Gen. Abdusalami Abubakar (rtd.), was said to have joined them at the meeting.
An unconfirmed report said a similar meeting might hold between the two leaders soon.
