Tinubu Appoints Rinsola Abiola as DG of Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Ms. Rinsola Abiola as the new Director-General of the Citizenship and Leadership Training Centre (CLTC). Abiola, known for her expertise in strategic communications and government relations, previously served as a Senior Special Assistant to the President, bringing a wealth of experience to her new role.

In another key appointment, the President named Nasir Bala Aminu Ja’oji as the Senior Special Assistant on Citizenship and Leadership. Ja’oji, who formerly advised the Kano State Governor on Mobilisation, is an active member of the Governing Council of the Coordinated Arewa Youth Groups.

Ja’oji is particularly noted for his advocacy work in the areas of youth and women’s empowerment, which has earned him widespread recognition across Northern Nigeria. His new role is expected to further drive the administration’s agenda on civic engagement and leadership development.

The announcements were officially released on Monday through a statement by Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy.
