President Muhammadu Buhari has named Babafemi
Ojudu, a former senator, as his special adviser on political matters, deploying
him to the office of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. He represented the Ekiti
Central Senatorial District in the Senate between 2011 and 2015 on the platform
of the Action Congress of Nigeria and later the All Progressives Congress.
While in the Senate, the new presidential
aide served as vice chairman of the committee on defence as well as
spokesperson of the APC caucus. Before joining politics, Mr. Ojudu was a
journalist and was one of the founders of TheNews magazine and its sister
publications, Tempo, PMNews and the defunct AMNews.
