'Why are you tagging Obi?' - Shock, slaps as Daniel Bwala tags Obi, Sowore in tweet alleging arrest by FG

Some social media users were left stunned after Daniel Bwala, a spokesperson for the Atiku/Okowa campaign organization tagged Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party and Rights activist and former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore in a tweet on X on Monday, September 18.

Bwala in a post via X (formerly called Twitter)revealed a plot by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's government to arrest and detain him.

According to him, he has gotten reliable intel that some persons at the presidential villa of the plot to use security agencies to arrest and bring him into custody.

The PDP Chieftain in his post tagged both local and international organizations which surprisingly included political opponents, Peter Obi and Omoyele Sowore.

He wrote: "Last night I got a credible intelligence that some key people around the seat of power (Presidential Aso Vila) of this government are planning to use security agencie(s) to arrest me and take me into custody on trumped-up allegations in order to rubbish me and silence me. That I am making them and the government uncomfortable.

"Let the world know today that I have always known that from my stands on the same faith ticket, which led to my leaving APC, and consequent posture as a political opposition, it might irk the deep state and come with persecution for what I believe in and stand for. If anything happens to me, let the world know today of their evil plans."

In the build-up to the 2023 general elections, Bwala was in the camp of the APC before switching allegiance to the PDP following President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's decision to go for a same-faith ticket.

Bwala was one of the strong voices in the party who kicked against the move, arguing that the actions of Tinubu do not portray equity, justice, fairness and inclusion.
