Controversial PDP member, Daniel Bwala, recently made some comments regarding Mallam Nasir El-Rufai’s potential move to the Social Democratic Party (SDP). Bwala, who served as the spokesperson of the Atiku Abubakar/Ifeanyi Okowa campaign organization during the 2023 presidential election, also mentioned some issues relating to the ongoing dispute between the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Peter Obi’s Labour Party (LP). According to Bwala, Nigerians should brace themselves for some “twists and turns in the coming days.”
Barrister Daniel Bwala disclosed that Peter Obi, who was a presidential candidate in the 2023 election, is reportedly considering switching from the Labour Party (LP) to the SDP. This potential move is believed to be a result of the current discord between Obi’s party and the NLC. Bwala hinted that the NLC is preparing to assert ownership and control over its political party, indicating significant changes on the horizon.
In a tweet from his verified X (formerly Twitter) account on March 22, Bwala implied that El Rufai, the former governor of Kaduna state, might be departing from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to join the SDP. He highlighted the alleged plan for Obi and El-Rufai to collaborate within the SDP, while also underscoring the NLC’s intention to take over the Labour Party based on a court judgment.
Bwala’s tweet foreshadowed a period of uncertainty and strategic maneuvers in the political landscape. Despite the impending developments, he expressed confidence in Atiku Abubakar, who he referred to as @officialABAT, suggesting that Atiku possesses the tools to navigate the evolving political landscape.
These revelations from Bwala have sparked intrigue and speculation among political observers and stakeholders. The reported realignment of key political figures like Peter Obi and Nasir El Rufai could have far-reaching implications for the political landscape in Nigeria.
In a related development, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai’s recent visit to the national secretariat of the SDP in Abuja raised eyebrows and fueled speculations about his political intentions. El-Rufai’s meeting with Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam, the party’s national chairman, added to the intrigue surrounding his rumored departure from the APC.
As the political landscape in Nigeria continues to evolve, these developments underscore the dynamic nature of Nigerian politics and the fluidity of political allegiances. With the 2027 elections looming on the horizon, the strategic moves and alliances being forged by key political figures like Peter Obi and Nasir El Rufai are likely to shape the narrative leading up to the next electoral cycle. As the political drama unfolds, Nigerians are urged to stay tuned for further updates and revelations that could reshape the political landscape in the country.
