Nigeria’s President, Bola Tinubu has appointed Mr. Bayo Onanuga as his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy.
Onanuga was a former Director, Media and Publicity, APC Presidential Campaign Council and Co-founder TheNEWS/PM NEWS.
Onanuga was a key backbone during Tinubu’s campaign to be president of Nigeria as he was a thorn in the flesh of the vociferous fans of Peter Obi, who branded themselves as ‘Obidients.’
A statement issued by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President (Media & Publicity), on Friday confirmed Onanuga’s appointment.
According to Ngelale, “As part of efforts to prioritize effective and efficient working synergy between the Presidency and Federal Ministries, President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointments of professionals who have prior working experience within the architecture of the Federal Ministries they will be coordinating with, in addition to duties that will be carried out at the President’s discretion: Special Adviser to the President on Information & Strategy — Mr. Bayo Onanuga; Senior Special Assistant to the President on Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation — Ms. Delu Bulus Yakubu
“The President wishes the new presidential aides well in the discharge of their duties.”
