Tinubu restructures media team, says no individual spokesperson

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.

The Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, made this known in a statement on Monday, November 18, 2024.

Onanuga noted that the hitherto Special Adviser on Public Communication and National Orientation, Sunday Dare, is now Special Adviser, Media and Public Communications.

He stated that Daniel Bwala, who was announced last week as the Special Adviser of Media and Public Communication, is now the Special Adviser on Policy Communication.

The presidential spokesman said: “These appointments, along with the existing role of Special Adviser, Information and Strategy, underscore 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.”
