President Bola Tinubu mourns the death of Peter Onwubuariri, a presidential media aide and veteran journalist, according to Nigerian reports. Both outlets say Onwubuariri served as Assistant Director, Media, at the Presidential Villa.

Daily Post Nigeria adds that Onwubuariri dies after a prolonged illness and describes his career as spanning journalism, public service, and media operations at the Presidential Villa. It also notes he previously worked as a North American correspondent for the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).

The Punch similarly presents Tinubu’s condolence message and highlights Onwubuariri’s long service across three presidential administrations. While both sources agree on his role in the presidential media team and his death, they emphasize different parts of his background—one focusing more on illness and past overseas reporting, the other on his service record across multiple administrations.
