Less than two weeks after the cabinet of ex-President Muhammadu Buhari was dissolved, Lai Mohammed, a former Minister of Information and Culture, has been appointed managing partner of international lobbying company Ballard Partners.
Mohammed’s new job was announced on Tuesday in a statement posted to Ballard Partners’ official Twitter feed.
“Ballard Partners, one of the top government relations firms in the United States, is opening its first African office in Abuja, Nigeria, the nation’s capital,” it said.
“Lai Mohammed, the immediate past Nigeria minister of information and culture, will serve as the managing partner of the Abuja office and the firm’s satellite office in Lagos, the nation’s financial centre.”
