Your opinion. U probably didn't watch the interview.

Your assumption. You probably watched the interview through the eyes of bwala.

He thinks it was his Nigerian supporters who don't use their head he was discussing with.

Despite this, you'll still see people who believe Mehdi Hasan was wrong and Bwala right. Nigeria is such a useless country with a useless people

Some of these people who are here blackmailing Daneil.Bwala didn't listen to the full interview. ...Bwala Daniel did credible well in the interview despite the fact that the interviewer wanted to put him.in the open shame....

When Oby Ekwesili was also interview by the same interview Hazzan Medil, Oby was thrown off balance however , Daniel Bwala wasn't thrown off balance despite the fact that he wasn't expecting such question from the interview. ..as matter of fact , He attended the interview program to show case the good work of his principal in the country. ..but this wasn't what he met in the program....and when the interviewer turn the session to a personal attack. ..he also turn the session to personal jab and attacker. ..it takes and exceptionally brilliant person person to do such performance. ...and he also sighted some of the similar worst situation in UK and US and also reference the Kirk Stammer and Donald Trump about the corruption allegation levelled against them....

It takes an exceptionally brilliant person to swing the sides of the coin in such precarious and damaging situation. ..

But there are some fools who cannot read between the line who are here to castigate and talk rubbish. ...anyway , education is not equal to wisdom...

You're hallucinating like the LLM that's not fine tuned.

I didn't see the "this is a water" part.

I am disappointed!

😂😂😂😂

In my view, Bola Ahmed Tinubu is one of the most strategic political minds in the game. He understands politics deeply and knows how to play it effectively. One of his greatest strengths is his ability to turn critics and opponents into allies. Interestingly, some of those who once tried to damage his reputation eventually become defenders of the very image they once attacked. Because of this level of political intelligence and strategy, I support him and will continue to support him.

I expected to see the achievements he has made for the people (including you). But no, you support him because he plays corrupt politics well. Tueh!

Orlandoo:
If I'm Bwala's father I'll quickly disown him this night without wasting time. Man has proved time and time again that he is bereft of any logical reasoning. He belongs to the dustbin.

Aswear. If shamelessness was a person.

Oga please stop. I am not a fan of the political class but Bwala did not protray his paymaster in good light.

The only good side to this if during second term Tinubu gets all of them fired and then whatever they say afterwards means shit. Because he already had them on record recanting their earlier statement, from Bwala to FFK.

That will quiet them and any other agitator Tinubu can just dismis such person as one looking for government appointment, that they are doing it in bad faith and will recant once appointed.

Let me get this right, you support him because he is good at self preservation not because he is a leader that has done a great job in improving the fortune of ordinary citizens?

One of the most damaging mindsets in any society is the belief that the government exists to solve every personal problem. When individuals begin to think that their survival, progress, and happiness depend entirely on the government, they unknowingly surrender their own agency.

Government was never designed to replace individual responsibility. It is a human institution created to organize society, maintain order, and provide basic public structures such as security, law, and infrastructure. But it was never meant to carry the full burden of every citizen’s life.

Yet today, many people blame the government for almost every unfortunate circumstance they experience—even when those circumstances are the direct consequences of their own decisions or lack of initiative.

A simple question must be asked:
What personal effort have you made to improve your own situation or contribute to the economy?

It is unrealistic to expect the government to:

provide every job,

feed every citizen,

build every personal facility,

or solve every individual hardship.

If this mindset continues, some people would eventually expect the government to manage every aspect of their lives—from employment to family responsibilities.

History shows that progress in societies rarely comes from passive dependence. It comes from individuals who take initiative, create value, develop skills, and identify opportunities, even when systems are imperfect.

The truth is simple:
No government can rescue a population that refuses to take responsibility for its own development.

This does not mean government has no role. Good governance is important. But a nation cannot thrive if its citizens believe their destiny lies entirely in the hands of political leaders.

True progress begins when individuals recognize that their greatest asset is their own capacity to think, act, build, and adapt.

Instead of waiting endlessly for external solutions, people must begin to cultivate independence of thought and action. When citizens take responsibility for their own productivity and innovation, they not only improve their personal lives but also strengthen the economy and society as a whole.

Ultimately, the question each person must answer is this:

Are you waiting to be rescued, or are you preparing to build your own path forward?

My support for Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not because he has done more than his predecessors, nor because I consider him exceptionally different from other politicians. Rather, it is because he understands the game of politics and knows how to manage his critics.

One of the strategies he appears to use is simple but powerful: turn critics into allies. Some individuals who once publicly criticized him are now holding political offices. As a result, the same people who once condemned him now find themselves struggling to defend what they previously attacked. In some cases, they even deny making the allegations they once expressed so strongly (typical example the Bwala Vs Mehdi aljazeera's interview).

This situation reveals something deeper about our society. It suggests that Nigeria’s problems may not come only from the presidency or political leadership. It also reflects a problem of mindset.

A country cannot develop beyond the mindset of its people. If individuals cannot stand by the truth and maintain it, and if money or power can easily make people compromise their principles, then real change becomes difficult. No matter how much we complain or pray for a better country, nothing will truly change until we change the way we think and act.

Sometimes we must also ask ourselves an uncomfortable question: if many of us who criticize the government today were given the same opportunity and power, would we act differently? Many people might end up doing exactly the same things they currently condemn.

Real transformation in Nigeria will only happen when both leadership and citizens develop stronger values, integrity, and accountability.

Myopic mindset ... There are no permanent friends and enemies in politics. Appointment?

Perhaps you don't know that this kind of formula also happens in Western world politics, unless you are a local-breed political analyst. Honestly, people condemn what they don't know jack about politics or the underlying message in this conversation. I can tell a lot of Canadian, US, and UK politicians who cross-carpeted to the party they have once criticized...and the person who they have once heavily criticized.


Anyway, I am not here to exchange words with you ... it takes a global mindset to really talk about political ideologies ... obviously you are not.

Can you show me where I said cross carpeting doesn't happen elsewhere mr global mindset?

If you really did have a broad mindset like you claimed without fixating on cross carpeting you would have noticed my point in my opening lines. That Bwala did not potray his paymaster in good light during the interview. Unless we both watch a different interview other than the one posted on Aljazeera website.

Standards have fallen globally.
Neither Bwala or his employer should occupy their current respective offices

You seem to be missing something.
How do you expect someone who the presenter has pre-planned his public shame to better portray his principal? Tell me...
At that particular time, he had more to do...because those questions are just like personal jabs, and in this situation, there are more to defend than to portray...
For example, I can't be calling you a thief, and the first thing you think of is to be defending the integrity of your company/country/principal... As a matter of fact, nobody will believe your story if you don't explain beyond reasonable doubt that you are not a thief... In that case, he protects his personal image a bit and also changes strategies.

And the part you people seem not to understand is when Daniel Bwala later discovers that this interview is about a personal attack, instead of keeping using defending strategies, he also switches to a personal attack on the interview, which makes the interviewer also get cautioned...

Personal attack when he was simply reminder of what he said in the past, how is that a personal attack? Please enlighten me
