Former spokesperson of Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign in 2023, Daniel Bwala has claimed that some government agents do not believe in President Bola Tinubu.
Recall that on Wednesday, the Presidency confirmed a cabinet reshuffle is imminent.
Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, confirmed that the President was indeed tinkering with the idea of rejigging his Council, but declined to be specific on how soon the Ministers will be moved around or dropped.
Speaking on the development, Bwala claimed that some politicians are trying to play it safe so they don’t incur the wrath of the people.
He spoke on Channels Television while reacting to Tinubu’s planned cabinet reshuffling.
Bwala said, “Some agents of the government, very sadly, their attitude suggests that they don’t even believe in the president. They prefer to play it safe; they feel that if they depend on the government, they will incur the wrath of the people. They want to be clever by half.”
Spirit Of #EndSARS Haunted #EndBadGovernance Protesters – Bwala
Meanwhile, Bwala, has said that the #EndBadGovernance protesters were haunted by the spirit of the #ENDSARS protest.
According to him, the protesters felt that the only way to compel the government was a hydra-headed approach
He stated this while speaking with Arise News.
Bwala acknowledged that protest is the constitutional right of people, but stated that the protesters and the government must be ready to learn.
He said, “Protest is the constitutional right of people and the lessons to learn are on both sides of the protesters and the government.
“But I think it has more to do with the protesters because when they started this protest, some of us were advising that no matter what your objectives are, you should be able to have leadership that would negotiate like trade union.
“The spirit of EndSARS haunted them because they have this belief that once there is identified leadership, they are likely to be compromised by the government. So, they felt that the hydra-headed approach was what would compel the government.
“We also know that because of the dynamics of Nigeria and undemocratic elements who have interest in this whole thing, we were advised that if you go to a protest without a defined goal, the undemocratic elements are likely to seize it and when they do that, your rights would be abridged.”
