Daniel Bwala, former spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar 2023 election campaign, says he is no longer a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Bwala spoke in a chat with Channels TV’s Politics Today on Thursday.
He added that he is “very close” to joining the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
“I am not a member of the PDP. Yes, I have left the PDP,” he said.
“I am very close [to joining APC].”
Bwala was the spokesperson for the PDP presidential campaign organisation during the 2023 election. He was one of President Bola Tinubu’s fiercest critics during the election run-in.
He however switched allegiance after Tinubu became the president in mid-2023.
In early January, Bwala paid a visit to Tinubu at the State House in Abuja.
Less than a month later, he met with the president again in France.
During one of his visits, Bwala said Tinubu demonstrated a passion “to lead Nigeria out of the woods”.
Bwala confirmed his commitment to back Tinubu’s administration to succeed.
