Former Nigerian Vice President Atiku Abubakar has issued a strong rebuttal to comments made by Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication. Bwala, who previously served as Atiku's spokesperson during the 2023 presidential campaign, suggested that Atiku should accept that the presidency might not be part of his destiny.
In response, Atiku's media office released a statement labeling Bwala as a "political opportunist" and a "turncoat," asserting that Atiku does not seek validation from individuals who easily abandon their principles. The statement highlighted Bwala's past association with Atiku, questioning his credibility and motives.
The media office further accused the Tinubu administration of being obsessed with Atiku, interpreting the persistent attacks as evidence of Atiku's enduring political relevance and the threat he poses to the current government. They emphasized that Atiku remains focused on building a broad-based coalition aimed at rescuing Nigeria from economic and institutional challenges.
Despite Bwala's claims that Atiku has lost significant support, the former vice president's team maintains that he is unshaken in his commitment to Nigeria's progress. The political landscape continues to evolve as Atiku positions himself as a formidable opposition figure ahead of future elections.
