Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser on Policy Communication to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, asserts that Nigerians are now safer following the implementation of the current administration’s security policies and reforms.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, Bwala, who previously served as spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organisation, highlighted a significant reduction in major security incidents since President Tinubu took office in May 2023.
“Before 2023, there were prison breaks everywhere in Nigeria, even here in Abuja. In broad daylight, people were being kidnapped before President Bola Tinubu came on board,” Bwala stated. “After he became president, we have not had prison breaks. People are going about their businesses all over the country.”
He argued that while “isolated cases of insecurity” remain, they no longer represent a widespread threat to national stability. Bwala claimed that the President’s leadership has successfully “restored relative calm.”
Addressing Allegations of Religious Persecution
Bwala also addressed recent claims by U.S. lawmakers regarding an alleged “Christian genocide” in Nigeria, dismissing the allegations as false and politically motivated.
He suggested that the controversial report cited abroad originated from a local civil society group allegedly connected to the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
“No faith group is being targeted in Nigeria,” he countered, arguing that the allegation of religious persecution is “baseless and unfair to the country’s security agencies who have been risking their lives to protect all citizens.”
Bwala concluded by urging Nigerians to recognize the progress made under Tinubu’s leadership and continue supporting government efforts to consolidate peace and stability nationwide.
