As against the previous practice where the presidency had a media arrowhead, the last of which was held by Ajuri Ngelàle, President Bola Tinubu has now done away with the idea of making one person heading his media team.
In re-designing the media team, as contained in a statement today, November 19 by his Special Adviser on Media and Communications Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the President grouped the three special advisers in one fold.
The three special advisers are Bayo Onanuga, who is for media and communication strategy; Sunday Dare, as media and public Communications and Daniel Bwala, as policy communication.
The statement said that the redesigning indicated that “there is no single individual spokesperson for the Presidency.
“Instead, all the three Special Advisers will collectively serve as spokespersons for the government.
“This approach aims to ensure effective and consistent communication of government policies, decisions, and engagements.”
