“This is not the time for fence-sitting or criticism when you can be useful in turning the country round. I am honored and humbled. Please pray for me & Nigeria.”

Prior to his latest appointment, Baba–Ahmed held the position of Chief of Staff to former Senate President Bukola Saraki from 2017 to 2019.
