In the activities lined up towards having a smooth transition, Governor Okorocha is expected to meet with the governor-elect on May 2.
The inauguration of the joint committee and tour of Government House are also scheduled to take place on Thursday next week.
Okorocha and Ihedioha will, thereafter, meet with various stakeholders such as the traditional rulers and labour leaders, as well as embark on a tour of selected projects in the state.
