The Special Adviser to the President Bola Tinubu on Media & Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, has announced an indefinite leave of absence.
The news received gathered that Ngale proceeded on the leave to attend to pressing medical matters affecting his immediate family.
In a statement he posted on his general communication WhatsApp platform on Saturday, Ngelale revealed that he submitted a memo to the Chief of Staff on Friday.
He noted that the memo was a means of notifying him of the decision to pause his functions, including his roles as Special Presidential Envoy on Climate Action and Chairman of the Presidential Steering Committee on Project Evergreen.
Ngelale explained that the decision was after consultations with his family due to a worsening medical situation at home.
He expressed hope to return to full-time national service when circumstances permit.
He, however, requested privacy for his family during the challenging time.
The leave of absence takes effect immediately, with no specified date for his return.
