Audu also acknowledged the role of former presidential spokesman Ajuri Ngelale, whose recommendation led to his appointment on August 26, 2023. “It has been an honour to contribute to the public communication efforts of this administration,” he added.
Ngelale resigned from his role as the spokesman for President Tinubu on 7 September 2024 to address medical issues affecting his immediate family.

The Presidency had yet to issue an official response to his resignation.
