Daniel Bwala is trending because he fumbled during an interview on Aljazeera, drawing laughter from the audience.
On H2H with Megdi Hassan, Pastor Bwala said Nigeria has arrested the leaders of Boko Haram and Lakurawa. And has never ‘mistakenly’ bombed civilians, and Nigeria is safer since 2023.
When they presented empirical fact, Bwala first admitted that the number of casualties increased in 2024, and even more in 2025. But somehow, he still insisted Nigeria is safer than before. When Hassan asked how? He said.. because of “context”.
Bwala started by calling the Christian genocide a hoax. Almost on same breath he admitted that it wasn’t a hoax, leaving Hassan and the crowd perplexed.
Bwala denied all of his old statements, tweets and interviews where he spoke against Tinubu. As he denied, Hassan read them back word for word. Bwala said, they are not true. They are his opinion. And he was in opposition, which involves lying. Hassan said, you don’t lie about a militia, Bwala said, that’s his opinion.
Hassan read him accounts of people who suffered Airforce bombing attacks, people who were kidnapped, Bwala said the data were not trustworthy because they are from western media. So, Hassan read him a local report and admission from the Nigerian Airforce, Bwala said it’s not true.
As Bwala denied facts, Hassan presented evidence. Each time, Bwala said “I am not aware of that.” Prompting Hassan to say.
“A week ago you put out a video of you and your team researching and preparing for this show. Yet each time I ask you something you say you are not aware of that.. then what were you researching in that video?..” — This sent laughter across the audience.
At a point Bwala compared terrorism attack to the 9/11 attack and said America also currently suffers terrorist attacks like Nigeria.. when they asked him where.. he stuttered.

LAWRENCE ANINI: The Dare Devil Armed Robber of the 1980s
Over 39 years ago, the notorious bandit who terrorised Benin City and old Bendel State in the 80s, Lawrence Nomanyagbon Anini A.K.A. "Ovbigbo" or "the Law" and some members of his gang were executed by firing squad after being convicted by the defunct Bendel Armed Robbery and Firearms Tribunal presided over by Justice James Omo-Agege
Anini was born in a village about 20 miles from Benin City in present-day Edo State. He migrated to Benin at an early age, learned to drive and became a skilled taxi driver. Anini became known in Benin motor parks as a man who could control the varied competing interests among motor park touts and operators. He later dived into the criminal business in the city and soon became a driver and transporter for gangs, criminal godfathers and thieves. Later on, he decided to create his own gang which included, Monday Osunbor, Friday Ofege, Smallie, Henry Ekponwan, Eweka and Zed Zed or Zegezege who was never captured. They started out as car hijackers, bus robbers and bank thieves. Gradually, he extended his criminal acts to other towns and cities far north and east of Benin.
The complicity of the police is believed to have triggered Anini’s reign of terror in 1986. In early 1986, two members of his gang were tried and prosecuted against an earlier under-the-table ‘agreement’ with the police to destroy evidence against the gang members. The incident, and Anini’s view of police betrayal, is believed to have spurred retaliatory actions by Anini. In August, 1986, a fatal bank robbery linked to Anini was reported in which a police officer (Nathaniel Egharevba)and others were killed. That same month, two officers on duty were shot at a barricade while trying to stop Anini’s car. During a span of three months, he was known to have killed nine police officers.
In an operation in August 1986, the Anini team struck at First Bank, Sabongida-Ora, where they carted away N2,000. But, although, the amount stolen was seen as chicken feed, many persons were killed. On September 6, same year, the Anini gang snatched a Peugeot 504 car from Albert Otoe, the driver of the famous super cop Assistant Inspector General of Police, Christopher Omeben. In snatching the car, they killed the driver and went to hide his corpse somewhere. It was not until three months later that the skeleton of the driver was spotted 16 kilometers away from Benin City, along the Benin-Agbor highway. A day after this attack, Anini, operating in a Passat car believed to have been stolen, also effected the snatching of another Peugeot 504 car near the former FEDECO office, in Benin.
Two days later, the Anini men killed two policemen in Orhiowon Local Government of the state. Still in that month, three different robbery attacks, all pointing to Anini’s involvement, took place. They included the murder of Frank Unoarumi, a former employee of the Nigerian Observer newspapers; the killing of Mrs. Remi Sobanjo, a chartered accountant, and the stealing of the Mercedes Benz car in Benin, of the Ughelli monarch, the Ovie. Before September 1986 drew to a close, Anini struck at a gas station along Wire Road, Benin, where he stole a substantial part of the day’s sales. He shot the station’s attendant and gleefully started spraying his booty along the road for people to pick. The height of Anini’s exploits, however, took place on October 1, 1986, the Independence Day when the state’s Commissioner of Police, Casmir Akagbosu was ambushed by the gang in Benin riddled his convoy in a hail of bullets. The police boss survived the attacks with serious injuries. Earlier that day also, the Anini men had gunned down a police man within the city
