Barrister Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, has said Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the last election, is on the verge of joining the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Bwala said this when he appeared on TVC’s Breakfast Show, where he reacted to reports of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, leaving the APC for the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
“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 stated.
Speaking further, Mr. Bwala stated that ongoing political movements, including talks of a coalition against the APC ahead of the 2027 elections and El-Rufai’s defection to the SDP, are motivated more by personal ambitions than by the pursuit of good governance.
