Commander-In-Chief Of Lies! — Presidency Launches Scathing Attack On Peter Obi

President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, has sharply criticized former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, labeling him the “Commander-in-Chief of misinformation, disinformation, and falsehood.”

Bwala’s harsh remarks came in response to Obi’s recent claim that Tinubu’s government had borrowed more money in a short time than all previous administrations of Obasanjo, Yar’Adua, Jonathan, and Buhari combined.

In a post on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account on Monday, Bwala wrote:

“Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the commander-in-chief of misinformation, disinformation and falsehood — Peter ‘Gbajue’ Obi.”

The term “Gbajue,” a Yoruba expression meaning “to deceive or disgrace,” was used by Bwala to mock Obi and his followers.

Bwala also accused the Obi movement of extending its alleged misinformation tactics to artificial intelligence platforms like Elon Musk’s AI chatbot, Grok, claiming that Obi’s supporters now rely on it to push narratives.

“They’ve found a new hero in ‘Grok,’ but whenever they ask it about me, they don’t get the answers they want,” he said.

He emphasized that the Tinubu administration remains focused on policy and won’t be sidetracked by what he described as Obi’s fixation on the President.

“We’re addressing the real issues raised by ‘Gbajue’ and staying vigilant against any attempt to spread falsehood and lies,” Bwala stated.

He added mockingly that Obi has lost his political footing and is now relegated to a “second-tier role,” allegedly competing with Rotimi Amaechi for relevance.

“Why waste our time on someone who’s been demoted and is now scrambling for a second fiddle position?” he concluded.
