President Bola Tinubu has appointed Daniel Bwala as Special Adviser on Media and Public Communications (State House).
Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, confirmed the appointment in a statement on Thursday.
Bwala, a lawyer and notable public affairs analyst was a key aide to former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) candidate in the 2023 election, and he actively campaigned for Atiku, who lost to Tinubu.
Following the elections, Bwala made a shift to Tinubu’s camp, a move that stirred some controversy.
In addition to Bwala’s appointment, three new directors-general were announced for various agencies:
