Presidential aide Daniel Bwala has said that his former principal and ex-Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, may not have been destined to become President of Nigeria.
“There is my former principal who believes that he is going to win,” Bwala said on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday, dismissing the chances of Atiku and other opposition coalition leaders such as Peter Obi and Rotimi Amaechi to unseat President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
“In all honesty, I have expressed my opinion that it may never have been destined by God to be a president in Nigeria because he has done everything he needs to do to be president and he did not win the presidency.
“[The year] 2023 was the biggest opportunity that my former principal Atiku Abubakar had. He will never have that kind of privilege again,” he said.
Notably, Bwala served as a spokesperson for Atiku’s presidential campaign during the 2023 general election but has since pledged loyalty to President Tinubu.
