Daniel Bwala Was Never Atiku’s Aide – Media Office

The Media Office of former Vice President and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar has come out to say that it was wrong to address Daniel Bwala as a former aide to Atiku.

This was recently revealed via a press statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Bwala is actually a former spokesperson of Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organisation, and not to Atiku himself, so it is important for the media and general public to take note henceforth.

The media office added that Bwala only offered his services to the campaign organisation as a spokesperson, and he has moved on since the elections were over.

His words, “Bwala is a former spokesperson of Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organisation and not a former aide to the former Vice President.

It is important that the media and the general public take corrective note of defining Mr Daniel Bwala as an aide to His Excellency Atiku Abubakar.

Bwala offered his services and support to the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organisation as a spokesperson – and it was a position he held during the last presidential campaign.

Subsequently, and after the election, the need for a campaign spokesperson has terminated, and Bwala has moved on with his career.

This, therefore, serves as notice to the media and the interested public to desist from defining Bwala as an ex-aide of Atiku Abubakar.

We duly urge the public to henceforth recognise, introduce, and define Daniel Bwala by his current vocation and alliance.”
