THE BROOM USED ON AJURI NGELARE IS BEING USED ON DANIEL BWALA – ATIKU’S AIDE
Paul Ibe, spokesperson for former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has taken to social media to mock Daniel Bwala after the recent reshuffling within President Bola Tinubu’s media and communications team.
In a tweet on Tuesday, November 19, Ibe stated that the re-designation of Bwala, who was recently reassigned from Special Adviser on Media and Public Communications to Special Adviser on Policy Communications is “an introduction to course 101 titled Emilokan is a Bigoted Virus.”
Ibe likened the development to the perceived marginalization of Ajuri Ngelale, the former Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, noting that the restructuring is a political manoeuvre rather than a strategy to enhance government communication.
“The broom that was used on Ajuri Ngelale is being used on Daniel Bwala sharp-sharp,” Ibe wrote, referencing the symbol of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ibe accused the Tinubu administration of misplacing its priorities, suggesting that the energy devoted to reorganizing the media team should instead be directed toward addressing Nigeria’s mounting economic challenges.
“If these folks spend all the precious time restructuring their media team, what time will be available for rejigging their trial-and-error policies that have brought us to an economic cul de sac?” he asked.
Ibe also referred to Bwala as “#BB (#BwalaBetrayer)” adding, “weep not for #BB.”
Recall that Borno-born Bwala was one of the spokespersons for Atiku during the 2023 presidential elections.
