A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Ibrahim Osinowo, has criticized presidential aide Daniel Bwala over his recent comments.

Osinowo insisted in an interview on News Central Television on Monday that Bwala does not speak for the Nigerian government.

He said the official spokesperson for President Bola Tinubu remains Bayo Onanuga, who serves as the Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to the President and spokesman for the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

According to him, any official government communication should come through Onanuga or other designated communication officials such as Sunday Dare.

Osinowo accused Bwala of attempting to gain national prominence through controversial statements.

“Bayo Onanuga is the spokesperson of the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. Daniel is not the spokesperson; he is a policy person. Those policies are still meant to be signed off by Bayo Onanuga,” Osinowo said.

He further alleged that Bwala’s recent appearance abroad was aimed at rebuilding his public image.

“Daniel does not go to the United Kingdom to discuss. He just went there to renew his image, which many people see as that of a stanch liar and image destroyer,” he said.

The APC member also insisted that Nigerians seeking the official position of the government should rely on recognized communication channels.

“If you need anything about the APC government, you talk to Bayo Onanuga or Sunday Dare. These are the people in charge of public communication who convey the stand of the government to Nigerians not Daniel,” Osinowo added.

Osinowo also claimed that Bwala had previously made controversial remarks about Tinubu, alleging that the President created a militia, a statement he described as false.

DAILY POST recalls that Osinowo’s comments come amid the backlash Bwala has been facing since his interview with Al Jazeera journalist Mehdi Hasan.
