President Bola Tinubu has approved the appointment of Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, the elder brother of the running mate to the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, Peter Obi, as the Special Adviser (Political) in the Office of the Vice President.

This was made known on Monday, September 18, 2023, by Baba-Ahmed through a post on his official X (Twitter) account where he stated this is not the time to sit on the fence or criticizing when you can be useful for your country.
