According to the Presidency, President Bola Tinubu is unaffected by the attack on him by Nasir El-Rufai, the former governor of Kaduna State.
Daniel Bwala, the President’s Special Advisor on Media and Policy Communication, reportedly made this claim in an interview with TVC on Thursday.
“The country’s opposition political parties lack direction,” he said. He claims that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is the only structured political party in Nigeria.
The opposition against the political party is aimless. The APC is Nigeria’s only structured political party. Nearly every member of the opposition party is attempting to figure things out.Since I can see that Mr. President has a reconciliatory temperament, I refrain from attacking. He has been in government for more than eighteen months, and during that time, he has never reacted to anyone. He has never been observed acting aggressively or combatively toward anyone. Almost 90 to 97 percent of those in his immediate vicinity today have previously worked against him due to his approach to politics and governance.
This includes me; I was with him before I parted ways with him and had to return. That’s his personality. The president doesn’t; he doesn’t think that fighting is necessary. As he previously stated, El-Rufai is still a member of the APC. You speak to him like though he were a brother, he remarked.
El-Rufai Is Exceptional
Bwala claimed that the recent attacks by El-Rufai on Tinubu, Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani, and National Security Advisor Nuhu Ribadu demonstrated that he was merely acting.
I am aware of his grandstanding, and he appeared to be struggling to find a role. For example, you have words and believe you can carry out a task if you quit a ruling party that you have affected. To be able to achieve that, you need a place that is operating. Yes, he will pick up one person on Twitter nearly every other day.
It was the national security adviser’s turn yesterday. The current governor and the others will next have their turn. Since I think he’s still valuable in APC, I spoke to him as though he were an older brother. Although we don’t need to be aggressive, he lacks the ability to disturb the president and can’t influence the opposition or anyone else. No amount of opposition, either in its entirety or in its component parts, can upset the president.

APC Isn’t Upsetting the Opposition
The president’s policy communication adviser said that the accusation that the ruling government was using money to sabotage the opposition was untrue.
Which member of the APC belongs to those parties? You see, you need to be sensitive to recognize when you are no longer valuable. That’s what PDP is going through. The usefulness of it has expired. It has evolved into a collection and agglomeration of individuals without a clear direction,” he clarified.
The opposition should applaud the president for bringing opposition party member Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), into his administration, Bwala said.
“Wike has never belonged to the APC. He has repeatedly stated it. He belongs to the PDP. Additionally, he has stated that he owns stock in the PDP. He claimed that he has sponsored numerous PDP events and that he cannot let his goodwill go. He is so defending his rights.
He is entitled to fight for his rights as a fundamental right. Furthermore, the president isn’t specifically urging everyone to leave your party. since we are in charge of governance. He has a problem with his party; thus, the president is unable to quit working with him. The president functions similarly to Abraham Lincoln.
He is defending the consensus of the country. Therefore, it is dishonest to the President to criticize him when you ought to commend him for cooperating with everyone. The president’s election was not the beginning of the political party’s issues. He said, “It began a long time ago.”
The president cannot be opposed by any coalition.
He also rejected the alleged alliance between the president and powerful political figures. “No coalition would work,” he said.
“In fact, let me tell you,” he added. The coalition they are referring to will not even run on the PDP platform. You get it?
We claim it has outlived its usefulness because of this. They want to move to a different political party at the ideal location; therefore, they are gathering together and wanting to flow. The Nigerian people aren’t sleeping because they’re just staring at this person and asking, “Are you a new phenomenon?” Or is there a group of people who have lost their jobs and are hungry, like someone who is addicted to drugs, and you are trying to help him stop using drugs? He will experience discomfort and other symptoms of withdrawal syndrome as soon as he begins this process. That’s what’s going on.
“The power withdrawal syndrome.” That’s what they’re going through. Therefore, you must be open-minded to discover how you might reinvent yourself in life in general. You must observe how you gain relevance. Additionally, you will eventually realize that you need to move on from politics.
Perhaps this is not what God wants you to have, or perhaps this is not what God wants you to have. Nigerians are not the reason for their assembly. People are congregating in order to retake power. Nigerians are not the target audience for this gathering.
“They should be congratulating the President on initiatives that are influencing change in Nigeria if there is a meeting with Nigerians in mind. And what are they expected to supply if they believe the president is not acting morally? An alternative. Is the alternative important to them? They use Nigeria’s suffering and suffering as a talking point, after all.
Nigeria’s suffering and suffering serve as their weapon. They use the Nigerian people’s predicament as a political weapon. However, as you can see, I have constantly declined to answer political questions. We will be prepared for them when the time comes. We are now concentrating on our efforts to fulfill the president’s pledge to the Nigerian people.
And we’re grateful that these things are starting to manifest in many facets of our country’s life. That is what we are happy about right now.
