2023: Daniel Bwala says Bola Tinubu may be disqualified from presidential race
In another report, a spokesman for the Atiku/PDP presidential campaign, Daniel Bwala, on Thursday, November 10, said Tinubu may be disqualified from contesting the 2023 presidential elections over his alleged connection to a drug trafficking case in the United States of America.
Bwala, a lawyer, commented during his appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
"I’m afraid that the conclusion of this case is that, from the eyes of the law. Bola may be disqualified from contesting if the matter goes to court. Narcotics and money laundering, whether in Nigeria or the United States, is a criminal offence," he said.
Tinubu reacts to US documents on alleged drug dealing, money laundering
Meanwhile, Tinubu has reacted to the trending documents linking him to drug dealing and money laundering in the United States.
The APC presidential candidate said the new allegation of his involvement in the drug business is "dead as a dodo," adding that the "carcass of the drug allegation in America" was "buried in 1993".
He said the attempt to bring back the allegation failed in 2023 and again in 2022 when the opponent thought it would lead to his disqualification from the APC presidential primary.
