Wakadaily reports that President Bola Tinubu had on Monday appointed Ngelale, an ex-aide to former President Muhammadu Buhari, as his special adviser on media.

The appointment was announced by director of information in the office of the secretary to the government of the federation (SGF), Willie Bassey.

“The appointment takes effect from 31st July 2023 and would terminate at the end of this administration unless otherwise decided by the president.”

Ajuri Ngelale via his Twitter page said he is humbled and honoured by the appointment.

He wrote: “I am most humbled and honoured by H.E. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s recognition of the need for more hard work ahead as I have been appointed as his official spokesperson & special adviser to the president on media & publicity,” Ngelale said.

“I will give my best as always. I love you all.”
