President
Muhammadu Buhari has appointed a senior Nigerian lawyer as the head of
communications and strategy for his 2019 re-election bid.
The appointment of Festus Keyamo
was conveyed via an April 16 letter signed by Rotimi Amaechi, the minister of
transport and director-general of the Buhari Campaign Organisation.
Mr Buhari announced last week Monday that he would seek reelection, shortly before departing for London.
The news
of the appointment comes a day after Mr Buhari told British Prime Minister
Theresa May that he was more concerned about governance than the 2019
elections.
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria,
prominent for his rights activism, Mr Keyamo remains one of the most vocal
voices backing the Buhari administration since 2015.
He is expected to make a formal statement about his appointment soon.
