Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has stated clearly that Daniel Bwala is not his personal aide.
Atiku via his media office released a public statement clearly stating that Bwala was never his aide but just the spokesperson of the 2023 presidential election campaign of the PDP.

The former presidential candidate of the party also emphasized that Bwala’s role as spokesman was terminated after the elections.
In the statement:
“It is important that the media and the general public take corrective note of defining Mr Daniel Bwala as an aide to His Excellency Atiku Abubakar.
Bwala offered his services and support to the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organization as a spokesperson – and it was a position he held during the last presidential campaign,” the statement read in part.
Atiku’s statement is coming on the heels of Bwala’s sudden political romance with The incumbent President and the All Progressives Congress.
Daniel Bwala who had visited President Tinubu twice in January has also openly declared his support for the President unapologetically.
Excepts of the statement read:
“In the last few days, I have been expressing my surprise and appreciation to the president for the decisions he is taking. So this is not about political parties. And you need to know that like I said, I was with him before I left,” Mr Bwala told journalists.
Bwala is a former spokesperson of Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organisation and not a former aide to the former Vice President.
It is important that the media and the general public take corrective note of defining Mr Daniel Bwala as an aide to His Excellency Atiku Abubakar.
Bwala offered his services and support to the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organization as a spokesperson – and it was a position he held during the last presidential campaign.
Subsequently, and after the election, the need for a campaign spokesperson has terminated, and Bwala has moved on with his career
This, therefore, serves as notice to the media and the interested public to desist from defining Bwala as an ex-aide of Atiku Abubakar.
We duly urge the public to henceforth recognize, introduce, and define Daniel Bwala by his current vocation and alliance.”
