Ngelale Parleys Nasarawa Gov on Evergreen City – THISDAYLIVE

In a statement issued on Saturday, Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, has resigned from his position with immediate effect.

The statement further said he has also stepped down as the Special Presidential Envoy on Climate Action and Chairman of the Presidential Steering Committee on Project Evergreen.

Ngelale said his decision to step down from his roles was to allow him to deal with medical matters presently affecting his immediate and nuclear family.

“On Friday, I submitted a memo to the Chief of Staff to the President informing my office that I am proceeding on an indefinite leave of absence to frontally deal with medical matters presently affecting my immediate nuclear family.

“While I fully appreciate that the ship of state waits for no man, this agonising decision — entailing a pause of my functions as the Special Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity and Official Spokesperson of the President, Special Presidential Envoy on Climate Action, and Chairman, Presidential Steering Committee on Project Evergreen — was taken after significant consultations with my family over the past several days as a vexatious medical situation has worsened at home.

“I look forward to returning to full-time national service when time, healing, and fate permit. I respectfully ask for some privacy for my family and me during this time,” the statement read.
