Daniel Bwala, the former spokesperson for the Atiku-Okowa Presidential Campaign Organization in the 2023 election, has tackled the supporters and appointees of President Bola Tinubu.

He accused them of going into hiding rather than speaking up and calming the people down in the face of the economic hardship in the country.

Responding to Bwala, Former campaign spokesperson for President Bola Tinubu in the South East, Dr. Josef Onoh disclosed that Bwala was one of the reasons they went into hiding and not speaking up for the President because of hypocrite like him.

“We are in hiding because you earlier told Nigerians that ‘Tinubu has already spent 31.8 percent of his First Term in office and has only succeeded in raising the sufferings of Nigerians during this period. And even if we give Tinubu 30 years nothing will work’ yet they rolled out the red carpet for him (Bwala) to see the President at the detriment of those that worked hard for the President in the time of utmost needs,” Onoh said.

Onoh accused Bwala of further denigrating the president thus: “Whenever they say Tinubu built Lagos, they would show you areas of Lagos where the Private Sector players built by themselves in their business interests.

“Tinubu takes credit where he did not sow. Where is Lagos IGR and allocations for these years?”

Onoh opined that the president’s supporters are in hiding for sundry other reasons: “We are in hiding because you told us that President Bola Tinubu may be disqualified from contesting the 2023 Presidential elections over his connection to a drug trafficking case in the United States of America.

“We are in hiding because you told us that you don’t expect the Ministers sworn in by President Bola Tinubu to perform at more than 15 percent why now complain now they are living up to expectations.

“We are hiding because you told us:

“you feel that when it comes to the number of Ministers, the President was more particular about politics than governance.

“We are in hiding because you told us that The number of Governors in the cabinet and the portfolios assigned to some individuals were purely political.

“We are in hiding because you told us:

“The APC wants to make lies a statecraft. When we announced that the then President-Elect was traveling on an official visit where he’ll meet with investors, you asked How many days he’s been away? You haven’t seen a picture of him alighting from a plane or investors receiving him. At least, we have seen a picture of you receiving you in Paris and what you intend to invest is what we are waiting to see.

“We are in hiding because you told us:

“When he (Tinubu) becomes President on May 29, he’ll have about six or seven months before he’ll be sacked and then you and the PDP will come and take over the power,” today we see how you intend to take power from we that worked for the President although now in hiding.

“We are in hiding because you told us that our President was the ‘President-select’, and not the ‘President-Elect’.

“You said Tinubu was selected by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as their preferred candidate. I’m glad you’ve now joined the queue to be selected by the same President you called “President select”

“We are in hiding because you told us that:

“The human brain is unique and miraculous. It works and functions optically 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, until you join APC, then it stops working.”

“I’m glad your claim has come to pass because if your brain was working, you wouldn’t have the audacity to ask why we are in hiding.

“We are in hiding because you told us that it is safe to assume President Tinubu was missing”, we are glad you found him in Paris strong, healthy and fit with the tenacity and strength of the African buffalo.

“We are in hiding because you once said:

“Tale of a country; two Presidents. Substantive one and selected one: Both out of the country as of today on medicals.

“One calls his own dental care; the other calls his own official visit. Their medical needs can adequately be met in Nigeria’s hospitals, public or private. Sad.

“We are in hiding because you told us “President Bola Tinubu Can Only Lead Lagos Not Nigeria”

“We are in hiding because you once described the President as someone who has no hope because he is worse than the Labour Party candidate.

“We are in hiding because you told us that President Tinubu is a ‘tribal Evangelist’ championing an ethnic agenda.

“You described Tinubu’s then visit to Fasoranti as the ‘crawling of a rat at night to steal meat from the pot’ today you are working hard to partake in the stolen meat.

“We are in hiding because you said:

“President Bola Tinubu’s appointments is nepotistic and now has earned the status of nepotism pro max 15.

“We are in hiding because you told us how you rejected Tinubu’s appointment offer before dumping APC and same you today still came out to tell us you will appreciate if President Bola Tinubu offers you any form of appointment.

“So the President”s appointees and supporters are still in a state of total confusion awaiting recovery as you reap where you did not sow.

“Finally we are hiding because the APC reward system is critically flawed and has created a tremendous vacuum between the President and his genuine supporters and until the President takes inspiration from Genghis Khan when he laid siege to Bukhara, he could not take it by. storm, so he wrote to the inhabitants of the city: He who is on our side is safe.”

“The inhabitants of Bukhara were divided into two groups. The first of them refused to obey Genghis Khan, while the second agreed.

“Genghis Khan wrote to those who agreed to submit to him: ‘If you help fight those of you who refused, we will entrust your city to you.” So they followed his order and war broke out between the two groups.

“In the end, the ‘supporters of Genghis Khan’ won, but the big shock was that Genghis Khan ordered his men to kill them.

“And then Genghis Khan uttered the words:

“If they were true, they would not have betrayed their brothers for us, when we were strangers to them’ my Moral submission to Mr President: He who betrays once, betrays
twice.’ be assured we are not hiding nor afraid to speak in your defence, I for one will speak for you a thousand times over, but the majority of your die hard supporters feel betrayed by many of the appointments you have made so far as most of your appointees were same people we fought against during the campaign and they were never at the forefront of your battle only to now sit on the victory table enjoying the spoils from a victory they did not fight.”
