Daniel Bwala, the Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communication, has stated that Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is still struggling to recover from the “painful defeat” he faced in the election.
In a post on his X page on Wednesday, Bwala criticized Obi’s commentary, describing it as lacking facts and logical analysis.
Bwala was responding to Obi’s interview with Arise TV on Tuesday, during which he made a series of sarcastic remarks while assessing President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
According to him, he said Nigeria dodged a bullet by not electing Obi president in 2023.
“As I listen to Peter Obi this evening struggling to play the opposition (oppose the government), I can’t help but shudder at his abysmal delivery.
“He was speaking devoid of facts, logical analysis, and almost sounded like a tinkling cymbal or a sounding brass.
“Mr Gregory has still not recovered from the painful defeat of the 2023 polls.
“But I can understand his confusion because as it stands today, he seems deserted in the banana republic of fantasy, wondering how he will convince his followers about his agreement to play second fiddle in the 2027 wild goose chase of the opposition. Nigeria dodged a bullet.”
