President Bola Tinubu has appointed Daniel Bwala as his Special Adviser on Media and Public Communications.

Bwala’s appointment was contained in a statement by presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga who also said Tinubu named three other persons as director-general of various agencies.

“The Special Adviser on Public Communications and Media, Mr. Daniel Bwala is a lawyer and notable public affairs analyst,” Onanuga said in a Thursday statement.

Bwala worked as a spokesman for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign team in the 2023 election in which Tinubu beat Atiku Abubakar and others to emerge as president.

He was a vocal critic of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the president in the lead-up to that exercise with Tinubu as the flagbearer of the party.
