Daniel Bwala Grilled on Past Anti-Tinubu Remarks During Al Jazeera Clash
On Al Jazeera’s March 6 Head to Head, host Mehdi Hasan confronted Nigerian President Tinubu’s media adviser Daniel Bwala with clips of his prior criticisms, including claims of election rigging and bullion vans at Tinubu’s home.
Bwala, who switched from opposing Atiku Abubakar to defending Tinubu’s reforms on fuel subsidies and security, dismissed the remarks as past opposition politics and focused on current achievements.
The debate covered Nigeria’s high violence rankings, kidnappings, and corruption allegations, with panelists split on progress; Bwala later called for a follow-up on successes.
