Former Director-General of the National Orientation Agency (NOA) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senatorial candidate for Nasarawa South Senatorial District, Dr. Mike Omeri, has appointed Hajiya Maryam Osuza as the spokesperson for his campaign team.

He also approved the appointment of Mr. Godwin Abraham Adugu as Head of Social Media, with Mr. Yahaya Abdul’Azeez Kingsparrow serving as Assistant Head of Social Media, as part of efforts to strengthen the campaign’s communication and digital engagement strategy.

The appointments were announced in a statement issued on Tuesday by Omeri, who said the decisions underscored the campaign’s commitment to competence, integrity, inclusiveness and effective communication with the people of Nasarawa South.

According to him, Hajiya Osuza, a retired civil servant and grassroots politician from Keana Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, possesses the experience and leadership qualities required for the position.

Omeri described the new spokesperson as “an accomplished politician and a respected grassroots mobiliser with an outstanding record of service to her community and the state.”

He added that she is “widely known for her sincerity, straightforwardness, sound judgment and unwavering commitment to the ideals of good governance.”

The former NOA Director-General said the appointment was based on her wealth of experience in public service and her deep understanding of the political landscape of Nasarawa State.

“As Campaign Spokesperson, she will serve as the official voice of the campaign, engaging with the media, stakeholders and the general public while projecting the vision, programmes and aspirations of the Mike Omeri Campaign for a more prosperous, united and inclusive Nasarawa South,” he said.

Speaking on the social media appointments, Omeri expressed confidence that Adugu, who hails from Arikya Ward, and Kingsparrow, from Agbashi, would deploy their experience and creativity to strengthen the campaign’s online presence and enhance engagement with supporters across the senatorial district.

“I have every confidence in their capacity, dedication and professionalism to effectively discharge these responsibilities and contribute significantly to the success of our campaign,” he stated.

Omeri congratulated the appointees and wished them God’s guidance and wisdom as they undertake their respective assignments.

Hajiya Osuza is expected to coordinate the campaign’s public communication, media engagements and stakeholder relations, while Adugu and Kingsparrow will oversee the campaign’s social media operations and digital communications ahead of the 2027 general elections.
