‘Don’t judge Nigerian Govt. with old information’, Daniel Bwala to Trump

Daniel Bwala, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, has responded to Trump’s claims and concern over the state of security in the country.

While speaking in an interview with TVC, Bwala stated that the US government had just recently commended the Nigerian government for capturing Usman Mohammed, one of the most wanted terrorists in the world.

“Barely three months ago, the American government commended Nigeria for the arrest of Usman Mohammed, also known as Khalid Al-Barnawi, leader of the Ansaru terrorist group and one of the most wanted terrorists in the world. The US Embassy in Nigeria equally praised our government’s remarkable progress in the fight against terrorism,” he stated

He urged them not to draw conclusions off the information they are getting, regarding such news as obsolete. Bwala also claimed that the present administration has been committed to ensuring security in the country.

“How then can the same government that acknowledged our success just months ago now take a contradictory position based on outdated reports and past events?. You cannot use obsolete information to judge an administration that has demonstrated clear commitment and tangible results in securing our nation,” he added.
