President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, criticises presidential candidates Atiku Abubakar (African Democratic Congress, ADC) and Peter Obi (Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC), accusing them of “hating Nigerians” in their conduct. Bwala’s comments follow what he describes as alleged violations of airport parking or traffic control regulations by Obi, including claims that Obi’s vehicle was clamped, as well as Atiku’s silence in the wake of the rescue of abducted pupils and teachers from Oyo State. The reports say Bwala reacts to these issues with posts on X, questioning why the two candidates are seen as opposition figures seeking power and a better Nigeria while, according to him, they respond poorly to events affecting ordinary people. The coverage also portrays Bwala as saying Obi and Atiku appear to use people’s misfortunes for politics and do not show empathy toward those affected. The outlets present Bwala’s allegations and perspective, without providing direct responses from Atiku or Obi in the excerpts.

President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, has knocked the presidential candidates of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, and the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, respectively, accusing them of hating Nigerians. Bwala was reacting to the alleged violation of airport parking regulations by Peter Obi and Atiku’s silence since the abducted Oyo State pupils and teachers were rescued by the security operatives. In a post on X, Bwala wondered why Obi and Atiku are called “themselves opposition that want to collect power and better Nigeria, but they hate Nigerians and Nigeria by their conduct”. “One violated airport traffic control rules, his car was clamped, and he lied that they wanted to kill him (toddler ranting shit); “The other is quick to tweet about Nigeria is doomed, but when our pupils and their teachers were rescued, he pretended like he is quarantined in a place where there is no access to information; No show of empathy and solidarity”. According to Bwala, the two politicians “love to use misfortunes of people for politics, but they hate the very idea of human dignity and freedom”. “Desperate people do desperate things,” he added.
