Daniel Bwala, spokesperson of the Atiku Abubakar presidential campaign organisation, has made a blunder regarding the chances of his principal winning the election in 2023.
Speaking during Channels TVs Sunday Politics programme, he said only Labour Party will be able to compete with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Bwala joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the APC weeks ago and got appointed to the Atiku Presidential campaign organisation.
In response to a question on whether PDP should be jittery going into the election with APC, he said only Labour Party should have such fears.
The lawyer accidentally said that PDP knows that it stands no chance of winning the presidential election, but when he realised his error, he quickly corrected himself and mentioned APC.
Watch him speak below…

Meanwhile, he recently explained why he turned down an offer to be the spokesperson of the presidential campaign of Bola Tinubu, candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
He said, “I left an appointment that was already guaranteed for me by the flagbearer of the APC as his presidential spokesman. These were his promises to me directly, personal and his car, and I understood when he was giving me this promise that even governors could opt for a commitment like that.
“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the flagbearer of the APC promised me that he was going to make me the presidential spokesperson for his campaign and he made the promise few weeks before the primaries and I have witnesses that know themselves that are of high repute in government in the party and around him. This is not even a dispute”.
Bwala, who noted that his memories with Tinubu were sweet, said, “It’s not by comfort, but it will come to a point in your life when you look at the general good of the people. They play religious politics and they flip it and say it’s the PDP that are doing it. You can see the case of fake Bishops.
“Atiku is the last politician in Nigeria you can accuse for being nepotistic or for being a religious bigot. Even the fiercest critics can tell you that. If you look at that team that surrounds him you have even less of Northerners.”
