President Bola Tinubu has re-designated the positions of two recently appointed officials in the State House media and communications team to “enhance efficiency within the government’s communication machinery”.
In a statement on Monday night, Bayo Onanuga said Sunday
Dare, the special adviser on public communication and national orientation, is
now the special adviser on media and public communications.
Onanuga added that Daniel Bwala, announced last week as a
special adviser on media and public communication, will now function as the
special adviser on policy communication.
“These appointments, along with the existing role of special
adviser, information and strategy, underscore that there is no single
individual spokesperson for the presidency,” the statement reads.
“Instead, all 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.”
There had been some confusion as Onanuga, designated as
special adviser on communication and strategy, had been the presidential spokesman
since the exit of Ngelale Ajuri, who was special adviser on media and
publicity.
However, on Monday, Bwala announced himself as the
presidential spokesperson.
“Today, I resumed officially as the Special Adviser, Media
and Public Communications/Spokesperson (State House). I am happy to have joined
a meeting of the robust and fantastic communication team of Mr. President. I
love the existing unity among the team and hope we can leverage on that even
for more synergy,” he wrote on his X handle.
