Ngelale, who had been a key figure in Tinubu’s administration, is reportedly taking an indefinite leave of absence due to personal and health-related reasons.

The statement emphasized that President Tinubu has accepted Ngelale’s decision with understanding and compassion, acknowledging the difficult circumstances that have led to this course of action.

The president expressed his sympathy for Ngelale, stating that the reasons behind his leave were legitimate and deserved respect.

Tinubu also extended his best wishes to Ngelale, both in regard to his health and his future endeavors, while underscoring the importance of respecting the privacy of Ngelale and his family during this period.

Ajuri Ngelale has been a prominent political figure in Nigerian politics, having served as Senior Special Adviser on Public Affairs to former President Muhammadu Buhari.

His role under Tinubu was seen as an extension of his deep involvement in Nigeria’s public communication sphere, where he was often praised for his articulate defense of government policies and swift responses to public concerns.

While the presidency refrained from giving further details on the nature of Ngelale’s personal or health challenges, his indefinite leave marks a significant change in the Tinubu administration’s media and communication landscape.

The public and media outlets have been urged to respect his family’s privacy as they navigate this period.

As Ngelale steps back, the presidency is expected to announce further adjustments or a possible replacement to manage its communications strategy moving forward.
