The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy and Communications, Daniel Bwala, has described Borno South Senator, Ali Ndume as a pathological liar.
Bwala disclosed this while appearing on Channels Television's programme, Sunday Politics.
He dismissed Ndume's claim that President Bola Tinubu is nepotistic, stressing that the lawmaker has latched on to power while getting his children juicy appointments.
According to Bwala: “When you hear about the message and forget about the messenger, it's where the messenger has pure motive. If the messenger has an agenda, then the messenger and the message are part of what you will consider.
“Secondly, the governor of Borno is doing his best to deal with insecurity, a very honourable man. Even the governor of Borno never indicted the government.
“He is saying from the way Boko Haram insurgents are coming here and there, if something is not done, they might resurge again, it's fair comment.
“Ndume lied, I have never talked about Soyinka, Obasanjo, or Kukah. Ali Ndume, with respect, is a pathological liar.
“He loves lies, go to Borno State and ask the people of Borno State; he lies with his eyes open.
“I can be counting people here who are vociferous against government buy government has not looked at them. This freedom of speech you hear is confined within the arm bits of the law.
“If in the exercise of your freedom of speech you commit a crime, there is a penalty for it.
“Ali Ndume is a Vellenos exploiter. He has had no projects in 22 years at the National Assembly. In 2023, he went to his village, he was stoned.
“Look at Ali Ndume; he tells you the president is nepotistic. Is there any greater nepotism than one man from a senatorial district saying he will stay as a senator forever?
“Are there no others? He gets jobs for his children and very close people at the CBN, NNPC, and juicy places, but for the children of the poor, he sends them into the army.”
