A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Daniel Bwala has faulted President Bola Tinubu’s appointments, describing them as “nepotism pro max”.
Tinubu had last Sunday nominated two more persons to serve as ministers in his cabinet pending their confirmation by the Senate.
But Bwala, who was the spokesman of the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Council, said Tinubu has not been fair in his appointments so far.
“President Bola Tinubu’s appointment is nepotistic and now has earned the status of nepotism pro max 15,” he said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.
According to him, if Tinubu’s government did well, he would be among the first people to laud him.
“I’m telling you that I don’t have anything against him. If President Tinubu scores a point, I will be the first, whether in PDP or in APC, to say President Tinubu has done it right,” Bwala maintained.
But he said: “We earn the right to point out things that the President and his administration are doing which are not uniting Nigeria, which are not pushing us towards the path of progress”.
“I earn the right to speak truth to power because President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is somebody that I, Bwala Daniel, respect with the greatest respect,” Bwala added. “I supported him when I was in the APC in the primaries, and more than just that, I, along with the PDP, sent my congratulations to him after he was sworn in which brought a lot of backlash to me.”
