He accused Arise TV of going after “optics and traction.”

The lawyer-turned-politician stated this via his X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @BwalaDaniel on Wednesday, June 5.

“It is so funny that what was the crux of our interview was never reflected in the topic of the video, but out of context topic is put for the optics and traction.”

Arise TV via its YouTube channel quoted Bwala as saying “I was always a Tinubu loyalist before I moved to Atiku. Going back to President Tinubu is just going back to who I know.”

Why minimum wage should be about N250,000, Bwala

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that Bwala said the minimum wage should be about N250,000.

Bwala, however, said it is not realistic because there is no money to sustain a monthly salary payment.

He added that the proposed N60,000 minimum can't do much based on the high rate of inflation in the country
