Former president Buhari’s spokesperson, Adesina, to return to Sun Newspaper as vice chair

Femi Adesina, a former Special Advisor to Muhammadu Buhari, is expected to resume his previous job at The Sun Newspaper on September 1 as the Executive Vice Chairman.

In an interview with the media outlet The Crest, Adesina confirmed the new position.

Adesina served as The Sun’s editor-in-chief before being named the president’s spokesperson during the most recent administration.

Speaking in the interview with The Crest, Adesina said, “I came from The Sun newspaper. I was the MD/Editor-in-Chief. And when I wanted to leave, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu said ‘Don’t resign. You may get to the government and you don’t like it. You can always come back. Or, you may get to the government and stay eight years; you can always come back. I’m going to make you the Executive Vice Chairman of the company.’ Not only did he say it, he issued me the letter. Yes, I have the letter.”
