The Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Public Affairs, Aliyu Audu, on Monday tendered his resignation.

In a one-page letter dated June 8 and routed through the President’s Chief of Staff, Audu wrote, “I write to formally tender my resignation… effective immediately.

I thanked the President for the opportunity to serve my fatherland under your visionary leadership.”

He also praised former presidential spokesman Ajuri Ngelale, whose recommendation led to his nomination on August 26, 2023.

“It has been an honour to contribute to the public communication efforts of this administration,” the letter continued.

Audu also said “Please accept the assurances of my highest esteem and continued prayers for the success of your leadership and the progress of our beloved nation.”

The Presidency is yet to respond to Audu’s resignation as of this report.
