Saturday, July 13, 2024 -Daniel Bwala, a lawyer and policy analyst, has announced his departure from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and indicated that he is close to joining the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Bwala, who served as a spokesman for
Atiku Abubakar’s 2023 presidential campaign, made this declaration during an
appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today. He confirmed, “I am not a
member of the PDP. Yes, I have left the PDP.”
When questioned about his potential
membership in the APC, Bwala responded, “I am very close” to joining the ruling
party, which he had previously left. His departure from the PDP and potential
switch to the APC have not surprised many observers, given his evolving
political stance.
Bwala, a former critic of President
Bola Tinubu during the 2023 election campaign, has since expressed support for
the president’s policies. In January, he visited President Tinubu at the
Presidential Villa in Abuja, calling on Nigerians to back the government. Bwala
also met Tinubu in Paris, France, and defended these visits by stating that he
had informed Atiku Abubakar beforehand.
In response to speculations about his
intentions, Bwala dismissed rumors that his actions were aimed at securing a
government appointment.
