Christian genocide: Tinubu set to meet US President Trump — Daniel Bwala
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Daniel Bwala, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, has likened former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, as Premier League football players that change club every season.

Speaking during an interview on The Clarity Zone Podcast, Bwala described Obi as political opportunist and actor.

He stated that Obi has an army of soldiers on social media, who attack people everyday for changing party but do not see anything wrong when their master or hero defected from one party to another.

“Of all the political gladiators in Nigeria, the one who is an actor is Peter Obi. Let me give you a good example. After the 2023 election, he lost everybody he was leading.

“He had House of Representatives and Senators. How many of them are in the National Assembly at the moment? The only governor he had, is the governor with him or with us?

“Taking it down to state, in fact, I have not seen anyone that identifies with him at the moment . All the candidates he had gone across Nigeria supporting, failed.

“He claims to be building a movement. A movement means you are departing from the norm. That means these people can do anything for you but will just realize after a while that oh this is not actually someone with the intention to govern Nigeria.

“Obi is just like Premier League football players that change club every season. He moved from APGA to PDP, then to Labour Party, and now, he is in ADC,” Bwala said.
