The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communications, Daniel Bwala has accused Borno South senator, Ali Ndume, of subtle anti-party dealings

The presidential aide made the accusation following a verbal attack on him by the legislator.

Ndume had, during an interview with Channels TV on Friday, described Bwala as a “maga dog”.

Reacting, Bwala accused Ndume of hobnobbing with opposition figures at night and claiming to be a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, in the day time.

In a post on his X handle on Saturday, Bwala tackled Ndume, stating that the lawmaker’s “frustration is aging” him by the day.

The post read, “No wonder, Southern Borno excluded you from the list of honorees in the recent excellence awards given to distinguished sons and daughters of Southern Borno.

“You criticise leaders freely but anytime you are called out, your soldiers, or boys, issue death threats to people.

“You allegedly meet and hobnob with coalition for a wild goose chase at night, and pretend to be an APC member during the day.

“There is no need to call me an offensive name on Channels TV, because you are an elder.

“Anytime my name is mentioned you can’t help but insult me, but you would not tell the world how you drove to my office to thank me immensely for supporting you when Senator Saraki suspended you and was dealing with you.”
