U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has named his campaign manager, Susie Wiles as his White House Chief of Staff.
NaijaOnPoint.com.ng (NOP) reports Wiles with her appointment by Trump will become the first woman to serve as White House Chief of Staff.
Wiles currently serves as a senior adviser to Trump and is campaign co-chair alongside Chris LaCivita.
Trump described Wiles as “tough, smart, innovative” and said she is “universally admired and respected.”
He noted her place as the first female chief of staff in U.S. history, saying: “I have no doubt that she will make our country proud.”
During his victory celebration in West Palm Beach, Florida, Trump gave a special thanks to Wiles for her prominent role in the campaign.
Largely avoiding the spotlight, Wiles has been widely credited for running what was Trump’s most disciplined and well-executed campaign.
