Daniel Bwala, the spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organisation, believes the Labour Party (LP) will outperform the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 elections.
Bwala made the prediction during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Monday, according to WITHIN NIGERIA.
He claimed that the LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi, would outperform his APC counterpart, Bola Tinubu, because the ruling party is in disarray.
Bwala stated that the upcoming presidential election is a referendum on the APC after seven years in power, and that the referendum is a standard set by the ruling party.
Tinubu has also isolated Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, former Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi, and Senate President Ahmad Lawan.
He said:
The Labour Party has more promise than APC in this election. It is a referendum.
The PDP is the opposition party. In 2019, you saw how they came close. The point is when you add all their aspirants together with President Muhammadu Buhari, and yet they only were able to escape with 2 points something million votes, you can imagine now that they are fragmented.
Where the candidate of the party is on a vendetta mission against those who ran against him in the primary. Where is Osinbajo today? Ostracised as if he’s an outcast.
The referendum on APC is not on a standard set by others. It’s their own standard.
