President Bola Tinubu has re-designated the State House media and communications team.

In a statement by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, on Monday night, Sunday Dare, who was previously appointed as Special Adviser on Public Communication and National Orientation, has now been designated as Special Adviser on Media and Public Communications.

Daniel Bwala, who was initially announced as Special Adviser, Media and Public Communication, will now serve as Special Adviser, Policy Communication.

According to the statement, these roles, along with the existing role of Special Adviser, Information and Strategy, underscore that there is no single individual spokesperson for the Presidency.

The statement stated that rather than a single spokesperson, the three Special Advisers will work together to represent the Presidency and communicate its policies, decisions, and engagements.

It added that the restructuring aims to ensure a more efficient and cohesive communication strategy for the Tinubu administration.
