The recently appointed Special Adviser to the President on Media and Public Communication Daniel Bwala, has expressed his 100% loyalty to president Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Bwala, formerly a spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Council, stated his readiness to work with president Tinubu, during a Monday appearance on Channels Television’s “Politics Today.”
Uncertain about President Bola Tinubu’s reasons for selecting him, Bwala speculated it might be linked to his past support for the President during the All Progressives Congress primaries.
Bwala reacting to either he lobby his appointment. He said, “No, I didn’t lobby. The last time I was here, I told you when I met him (President) that I had made up my mind to support his cause.
“Since January, after appearing on your program, I have been firmly committed to that cause. Maybe he saw that and also saw the dedication in it. But it is something the President knows I have always supported, and still do, since I backed him in the primaries.”
He expressed gratitude for the honour and pledged to remain committed to serving both the President and the Nigerian people effectively.
He added, “Whatever his reason was, I don’t know. But I am incredibly grateful for the honour President Tinubu bestowed upon me. I am also very committed to ensuring I don’t disappoint Mr. President and the Nigerian people.”
Bwala officially began his duties at the State House on Monday. During a familiarisation meeting with journalists, he emphasised the importance of maintaining focus despite potential distractions in his new role.
