President Muhammadu Buhari’s denial that Bola Tinubu won the 2023 presidential election was supported by the PDP Presidential Campaign Council’s spokesman, Daniel Bwala.
Remember that Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) was proclaimed the winner of the presidential election on February 25 by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
On April 28, however, during a meeting with members of the Progressive Governors Forum at his house in Aso Rock, Buhari asserted that Tinubu and the APC had won the election because of their dedication and clever campaigning.

Bwala claimed in an interview with The Punch that the president made the comment because he was resigning and that the Nigerian president has made other statements that may be viewed as contradictory.
When asked if Buhari made that statement for Tinubu to treat him well in retirement, he said: “That is one but the second thing is that Buhari is leaving. He has said so many things that can be considered as conflicting. On one occasion, he would say we have done better than everyone, on another occasion, he will say I’ve tried my best, forgive me. On another occasion, he will say I know that Nigerians are not happy with me on this and that.
“Recently, he said when he retired, he would go to Daura, but if he is disturbed, he will go to the Niger Republic. The thing is the old man has tried his best and someone like me who has defended him in the past cannot but appreciate the fact of his intentions.
“When he leaves office, he will be rated a poor president on the grounds that he was unable to checkmate his appointees.

“No president in Nigeria has not taken the time to checkmate his people. Buhari never sacked anybody. If you see one or two sacked appointees, it is because the people fought to a point where he could no longer say no.”
