Bola Tinubu Not Responsible For Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger Exit from ECOWAS — PDP Chieftain Bwala
A prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Daniel Bwala, stated that Bola Tinubu has nothing to do with the withdrawal of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
Bwala asserted that the decision of the mentioned countries to withdraw from ECOWAS is intricately linked to the dynamics of proxy trade conflicts involving Russia/China and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

The military regimes of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger had recently announced their withdrawal from ECOWAS, citing it as a “sovereign decision” to be executed promptly.
Dismissing claims that Tinubu’s leadership or lack thereof was a factor, Bwala, in a post on his X handle on Sunday, urged Nigerians to direct their attention to the broader geopolitical context.
In his words: “The withdrawal of the three West African nations from @ecowas_cedeao ECOWAS has nothing to do with @officialABAT President Tinubu’s leadership or lack thereof as it is peddled by naysayers . It has everything to do with the dynamics of proxy trade conflicts between @GovernmentRF Russia/China and NATO.
“Nigeria is not at war with both blocs, so we are good and President Tinubu would find a path for lasting peace in ECOWAS.
“Let’s focus on our nation and together as a people we would find solutions to our age long problems.
“Make dem dey there dey and make we dey our dey.”
