According to Dare, Tinubu's endorsement of Buhari led to his emergence as president.

Sunday Dare said:

"Without Tinubu's endorsement, Buhari would not have emerged as a president."

Recall that President Tinubu appointed Sunday Dare as a special adviser on public communication and orientation. The new appointee will be working under the Ministry of Information and National Orientation.

Dare was the former Minister of Youth and Sports of Nigeria, but the ministry was scrapped by Tinubu on Wednesday, October 23, when he announced a cabinet reshuffle. Tinubu sacked five ministers and appointed seven new ministers.

It will be interesting to note that Sunday Dare was Buhari's former minister.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari's former minister, Adebayo Shittu, expressed indifferences about President Bola Tinubu's newly appointed ministers.

Shittu noted that the sacked ministers were not different from the new one, adding that it was just the case of one Nigerian leaving office and others coming in.

However, the former minister said he could vouch for Jumoke Oduwole because she served as minister of Trade, Industry and Investment under Buhari and performed excellently well.
