The Presidency on Saturday said it has received the memo from the Spokesman for the President, Ajuri Ngelale, to proceeded on an indefinite leave of absence due to personal and health-related reasons.
This was disclosed in a statement shared on the X handle of the Presidency, @NGRPresident, and that of the Nigerian Television Authority, @NTANewsNow, on Saturday night.

Ajuri had earlier announced his decision to step down from his roles within the Presidency citing family related reasons.
In the statement, the President Bola Tinubu extended his heartfelt prayers to Ngelale and his family, wishing him a swift recovery and a complete return to good health.
The President also took the opportunity to acknowledge Ngelale’s tireless service to the nation, especially his remarkable contributions in advancing national discourse and spearheading critical initiatives such as climate action.
“The President recognizes Chief Ngelale’s dedication and thanks him for his efforts in various capacities,” the statement read

Ngelale was appointed as Tinubu’s spokesman on July 31, 2023.
