Ajuri Ngelale, former special adviser to President Bola Tinubu on media and publicity, has welcomed a fifth child with his wife.
The 38-year-old disclosed this in a statement posted across his social media accounts on Saturday.
“I am humbled to announce that The Lord has blessed the Ngelale family once more with the arrival of our fifth child who was born on my mother’s birthday following a most mercurial journey to health.
“The birth of my fourth son, Micah Esoi-Obari Ngelale, evokes profound gratitude and joyful praise to our Creator Whose mercy and lovingkindness is reaffirmed as endless and indescribable.
“Both mother and child emerged from the process in good health.
“On behalf of Crystal, Ajuri II, Elijah, Malachi, Zoelle, and Micah, I thank you for your prayers and incessant support,” Mr Ngelale wrote.
President Tinubu appointed Ngelale as presidential spokesperson in July 2023.
Ngelale stepped down from the position in November 2024 saying he wanted to deal with medical matters affecting his family.
