A former National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has taken Daniel Bwala, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, to the cleaners, describing him as a rolling stone that gathers no moss.

 

The Rivers APC Chieftain said that Tinubu, as a man who knows how to deal with his political opponents, lured Bwala to his side by dangling what he (Eze) described as a satanic carrot, which Bwala grabbed with his two leprous hands.

 

Eze categorically told Bwala that President Tinubu appointed him for a purpose which, according to him, was to rubbish and tactically keep him in the cooler, being a former aide to Atiku Abubakar.

 

Eze, who formerly worked with Bwala as members of the APC Legacy Projects Media Team, said he was not surprised to hear and see Bwala pouring invectives on the hands that once fed him, just because he wants to be relevant and warm himself into the hands of the present administration.

 

Daniel Bwala had described the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, as a failed politician.

 

Bwala claimed that Obi does not even know the meaning of democracy.

 

The statement comes after the former governor claimed that democracy in Nigeria had collapsed.

 

Eze said, “I have previously worked with that young man in the APC Legacy Media Project, and during that period, I found him bereft of conscience and a sane mind. He was more of a man under a demonic spell.

 

“In him, I saw a traitor and a man readily available to stab his benefactor in the chest for personal aggrandizement.

 

“During that period, Bwala exhibited a high level of sycophancy, moral bankruptcy, and abnormality.

 

“My impression of Bwala, then, was that of a man who was ready to betray his father and kinsmen for a pot of porridge beans.

 

“Today, going by his actions, I have been vindicated. My conscience will never prick me over my perception of that man as a rabble-rouser,” Eze stated in a statement he signed and made available to reporters in Port Harcourt on Friday.

 

Eze hinted that from the APC Legacy Media Team, Bwala jumped ship to the media train of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), as one of the party’s presidential spokespersons.

 

Eze stated that Bwala, “with no hope any longer of survival and relevance, willfully rushed to the Tinubu media team with the hope of getting a ministerial slot, after calling the President all sorts of unprintable names when he was with Atiku.”

 

He simply tagged him a skit maker, begging for followership, adding that he was aware that Bwala would one day resort to insulting Peter Obi, just to be relevant in Tinubu’s administration.

 

“Calling Peter Obi a failed politician and one who doesn’t understand what democracy is all about is the height of mediocrity, insanity, and stupidity on the part of Bwala.

 

“I make bold to state unequivocally that what Peter Obi has achieved and represents in the annals of political transformation in Nigeria eluded Bwala’s great-grandfather and lineage. So, he should shut his dirty mouth.

 

“Bwala must not utter gutter statements against statesmen in the likes of Peter Obi, in order to be accepted by Tinubu’s team,” Eze said.

 

Describing Bwala as a misguided, gullible, and misfiring presidential aide, Eze mocked Tinubu’s aide, saying he only has a history of democratic sycophancy, betrayal, and double-faced activism.

 

According to Eze, “President Tinubu, who knows how to deal with his political opponents, lured Bwala to his side by dangling a satanic carrot, which he (Bwala) grabbed with his two leprous hands.

 

“As one of Tinubu’s spokespersons, Bwala has been rubbished and tactically kept in the cooler; only for him to find his voice today to disparage the person of Peter Obi, one of Africa’s most redefined democrats, followed and admired politicians.”
