Report from Vanguard has revealed that the Economic Transition Committee comprised 23 members while the Work Groups have 235 persons totalling 258.
The reports quoted Abiodun as saying that, the inauguration of the committees is an attestation to his promise to run an all-inclusive government. He said the gesture is to “elaborate on the (Abiodun’s) campaign manifesto, identify and distil the pressing needs of the state and our people, recommend specific programmes and policies and develop a measurable and realistic roadmap, including identifying low hanging fruits, for implementation.”
They were also charged to identify means of funding the new government when it is inaugurated on May 29. “There is no gainsaying that funding will be a major constraint, hence our recognition of public-private partnership as a veritable tool for funding in a manner that keeps the interest of the state paramount while delivering significant value to all the stakeholders. Therefore, the Work Group on Finance is enjoined to identify creative means of funding to support the realisation of the governance agenda.”
