It was because of Ndigbo – Kenneth Okonkwo reveals real reason Ajuri stepped down

Former spokesperson for Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023  election, Peter Obi, Kenneth Okonkwo, yesterday said that the former Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to President Bola Tinubu, Ajuri Ngelale, took a leave of absence because of the people of Ndigbo.

The Nollywood veteran, Kenneth Okonkwo, made this known while reacting to Ajuri’s leave of absence from the Presidency on Saturday.

TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that Ajuri in a memo submitted to the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, where he disclosed his plan to proceed on indefinite leave.

Ngelale, cited medical matters presently affecting his nuclear family as the reason for his decision to step down from his role.

Reacting, Kenneth via his X handle, on Saturday, stated that Ajuri failed in his expected responsibility to publicly lie against the people of the South East, Ndigbo.

“I knew Ajuri Ngelale would not last up to two years in office as a spokesperson for Tinubu. ‘Can two work together except they be agreed?’ He left, not only because of pressing medical issues affecting his immediate family, but because of terminal medical issues affecting his job.

“Ajuri must learn in the future that to be qualified to work for a Tinubu, he must learn to publicly lie at all times and be bold enough to declare that Igbos are aliens in the Niger Delta,” Okonkwo said.
