According to Premium Times, Nigerian journalist Tolu Ogunlesi has been appointed as President Buhari’s Special Assistant on New Media.

Officials at the presidency told PREMIUM TIMES Mr. Ogunlesi has undergone security screening and his appointment is to be announced in the coming days.
Mr. Ogunlesi is one of Nigeria’s most active Twitter users, and was clearly in favour of Mr. Buhari’s election in the 2015 general elections.
He will be the Buhari administration’s social media anchor, a role played by Reno Omokiri for former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Sources close to the situation say he was on a shortlist for the position sent to the President two weeks ago. We’ve reached out to the Presidency and the man himself, neither could confirm.

We’ll update as anything new comes out of this.

UPDATE: Abike Dabiri seems convinced
