The Director of Strategic Communication of the defunct Tinubu Campaign Council, Dele Alake has said his rumoured appointment as the Spokesman to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not true.
Alake noted that no appointment has been made in the new regime.
The former Commissioner for Information in Lagos State described stories of Tinubu’s first appointments are fake news.
The New Diplomat recalled that immediately after President Tinubu was sworn-in on Monday, May 29, 2023 reports started emerging that the President had announced his first set of appointments.
However, in a chat with selected reporters in Abuja, Alake denied getting appointed as the presidential spokesperson, saying that the reports circulating on social media are false and baseless.
He said: “No appointment has been made. The story out there is false.”
