Daniel Bwala attacks Ali Ndume
The former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) member asserted that the federal lawmaker’s comments about him in the interview were “series of lies”.
Bwala wrote:
“I have seen the series of lies of Ali Ndume against me in his recent interview simply because I called out his hypocrisy and grandstanding against the President and the National Assembly and for fanning the embers of violent protest and dog-whistling to the elements allegedly planning to unseat @officialABAT.
“This is a man that his party @OfficialAPCNg requested that he be demoted in the NASS for conduct unbecoming of a distinguished senator; and his senatorial district is about to declare “persona non grata” (PNG).
“I will return the favour of his insults in the interview with receipts shortly.”
‘Planned protest potentially dangerous’, Bwala
Earlier, Legit reported that Bwala said a nationwide protest is not necessary at this point.
Speaking to state house correspondents shortly after meeting with President Tinubu, Bwala described the planned protest as “politically motivated”.
Bwala said members of the opposition must see beyond politics and rally around President Tinubu in his quest to transform the Nigerian economy.
