Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, has claimed that Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, will soon join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking on TVC’s Breakfast Show, Bwala reacted to reports of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, leaving the APC for the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
He stated, “Do you know we are emptying the Labour Party? Not because we are asking them to come, they are coming. Valentine Ozigbo has joined us, Balami has joined us, even Peter Obi will join us.”
Bwala further suggested that the ongoing political realignments, including talks of a coalition against the APC ahead of the 2027 elections and El-Rufai’s move to the SDP, are driven more by personal ambitions than by a genuine push for good governance.
