To be honest you should be disappointed in yourself. Is Buhari celebrating the appointment for you to condemn the appointment ? You should get educated on the meaning of the post Ogunlesi is holding.
If u feel u have been educated, then that type of education should be saved for the trashcan!!!

How many media SA's will this buhari have?


Talk of a man who constantly accused the previous Government of wasting resources.

This Buhari is fake.

New media is another name for social media.

TV, radio and newspapers/print are known as traditional media (Adesina and Garba Shehu manage these ones).

Oya na.

You can hate or love him. Either way, he is worthy of this appointment. He has been a fervent and unflinching follower of PMB.

Loyalty pays brothers and sisters.

Don't be clement.
Sitting on the fence not permitted.

It is either God or Satan.
It is either PMB or GEJ.
It is either WAILERS or DULLARDS.

Congrats Tolu.

Don't ask me which party I belong. .....I'm after good governance of calling a Shovel not a Trowel.



Na JJ Omojuwa and some Ngenes from NL remain now.
omojuwa and ogundamisi 'flinch' in their support for pmb. I prefer ngeneukwenu more.

Hehehehehehehe, when that brainless tyrant was at the helm of affairs back then in 1983/84, he stiffled the life out of the media, press and journalists, reason was so that his many ills would be hidden. He hates criticism and wants only worshippers and praise singers to make him feel not less than a god. He must have embezzled Nigeria dry as a military dictator (just like he did during his days working with Ebola Ewu in the 70s and Abacha in the 90s) but there was no media to report his demonic exploits in the 80s.

Like you said, only foools will believe he's a saint...

AS BUHARI APPOINTS TOLU OGUNLESI HEAD OF SOCIAL MEDIA.

When you insult Goodluck Jonathan and call him AN INEFFECTUAL BUFFOON on the Economist, of course Buhari will appoint you. This administration is all about expertise on GEJ bashing. The president and Lai Mohammed are seriously battling for the most efective official. Bashing Goodluck is the only rubric for measurement and grading who is doing well in APC.

So all APC bloggers, what insultive name can you come up with for Goodluck Jonathan? Oh you do not want appointment like Tolu? Now get creative and insult GEJ. I want you all to get you "small CHANGE" too. at all at all na weeensh.

So who goes next? Maybe some of these zombies in Nairaland.

It is a misplaced priority. The area we need special assistance is on Economic matters. That is the 1 headache of the nation.

Buhari is appointing a University of East Anglia, UK, Masters graduate yet he is so short sighted that he has made studying abroad next to impossible for the honest middle class man & he's children. Rubbish. He should "patronize Nigerian products" like he preaches na! Let him come to the chemist shop close to my house to buy drugs too.

Bro I don't envy you because it will be an uphill task defending this saintly corrupt government. Remember Nigerians are wiser now so you must be ready to receive the backlash. Congratz on your new appointment.
my thoughts exactly, the backlash will be insane. His journalism will be challenged from now, he might have to start writing to the sole purpose of personal relationships, instead of fairness and truth in bias.

But no

More propaganda appointments seem to be most crucial at this point in time....

Mr. President promised $1 will equal 1 Naira.

Mr. President promised to bring back Chibok girls and end boko haram in 3 months.

Mr. President promised to jail all kworrupt persons 300 years and 9 months no single conviction. No evidence to put Diezani Allison on trial over the alleged bogus $20 billion oil profits loot. Dasuki is not serving 2,000,000 years imprisonment. Metuh walks free. Re-arraignment of Dokpesi might end quietly as his first trial. Right under buhari's nose,corruption ate the 2016 budget. No one has been jailed 300 years for this hitherto.

Mr. President promised 5,000 Naira monthly stipend to Nigeria's unemployed youths.

Mr. President promised a lean budget,now his cabinet is bloated. SSAs and SAs doing same thing. Media and Publicity, Digital and New Media,News media,social media,print media.

In 1999,Obasanjo urged Nigerians to SUFFER for 8 years and enjoy the fruit of his gallivanting across the globe. In 2016, Deluded Nigerian youths are still asking for time for Mr. Buhari who has no honour and cannot keep his words!

I end with the classical Nigerian remark........God help us.
