Your Motive & Actions Made You Easy Recruit For Opposition – Bwala Tells El-Rufai

 

The Special Adviser to the President on Policy Communication, Barr. Daniel Bwala, has accused former Governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai of seeking for vengeance.

This followed El-Rufai’s criticism against President Bola Tinubu’s government.

Bwala, while responding to El-Rufai’s post on his verified X handle on Thursday, said the opposition saw that singular element of vengeance as a veritable tool for El-Rufai’s recruitment.

He however, rejected the appellation of “a latter-day Asiwaju supporter” ascribed to him by the former governor.

Bwala noted: “Still my senior brother @elrufai, I am sure you don’t need anyone to tell you about my respect and admiration for you, not just for your brilliance, but also as one of the brightest we have from the northern extraction. I am not stating it for the first time today, and you know that.

“My worry, however, is the motive behind your statements and actions; they are not borne out of patriotism, but a need for vengeance. The opposition sees that singular element of vengeance as a veritable tool for your recruitment.

“With respect, I am not a latter-day Asiwaju supporter. We both played our roles in his emergence as the candidate of the party ahead of the 2023 elections.

“And before then, whilst you were from the CPC extraction of the APC, I was from the ACN, which explains why I worked with Comrade Oshiomhole when he chaired the party, amongst other things, to protect the interest of Asiwaju, whom at the time you people vowed to retire from politics.

“I still think you don’t need all these melodramatic activities or a vengeance mission. Come back and resolve whatever you think are your grievances like the dignified man that you are.

“Our party, APC, as of today remains the only organised party with identifiable structures across the country. So if you are looking for any symbol of democracy, it is still in your party. Please, senior, come home; you have toiled all night.”
