Tinubu’ll spend eight years if opposition fails to form coalition – Bwala

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu President Bola Ahmed Tinubu

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Daniel Bwala said President Bola Tinubu will spend eight years in office as president if opposition party fails to form a coalition ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Bwala stated this in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday.

He said, “Without a coalition of political parties, Tinubu is going to spend the next eight years. That one is for sure.

“The truth of the matter is that there will be a coalition of political parties that will be very strong. This is a fact that I know. The coalition that is coming will swallow some of the elements that are creating the problems in the various political parties,” he added.

Meanwhile, Bwala accused Tinubu of instigating crises in opposition parties, making reference to the political crises confronting the Labour Party and the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

On the political crisis in Rivers State, Bwala predicted that Governor Siminalayi Fubara would be removed from office, adding that he already stepped into the trap set for him.

Although he didn’t indicate who set trap for Fubara, Bwala called for prayers for the governor.

He said, “As for Rivers, you only need to pray for that governor. The governor does not know what is even happening. Only time will tell what is happening.

“But if he (Fubara) says that is the path he has chosen, you can only wish him well.”
