US President-elect, Joe Biden has accused the Trump administration of “irresponsibility” for failing to give his team the information it needs in key national security areas, IgbereTV reports.
Biden wrote on his Twitter handle:
“Right now, my team isn’t getting all the information that we need from the outgoing administration in key national security areas.
It’s nothing short of irresponsible.”

Biden takes office on 20 January but Trump has refused to concede and for weeks after the election, Biden was blocked from receiving key intelligence briefings from the Department of Defence, an essential routine during a presidential transition.
