Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has made it clear that he has no regrets about serving under President Bola Tinubu.
Despite his long-standing affiliation with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Wike, the only opposition member in Tinubu’s All Progressives Congress (APC) cabinet, stands firm in his decision.
Speaking at the PDP Congress in Rivers, Wike expressed satisfaction with his position in the current administration. “We are fully in government. We are fully in Tinubu’s government.
“I have no regret about it and I will continue to be there. Anybody who is angry should go and hug the transformer,” Wike stated.
Wike also criticized Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his former ally, and other PDP governors for supporting Fubara at a recent caucus meeting in Taraba. He issued a stern warning: “Some governors say they will take the structure from us and give it to somebody. I hear that they have given them assurance that they will take the party from us. I pity those governors because I will put fire in their states. When God has given you peace, you say you don’t want peace. Whether you are in Bauchi or wherever, your hands will get burnt. You will never see peace again.”
“Now you have started, when I will start, don’t say I’m the one that destroyed PDP, you are the one that is trying to destroy PDP. Allow Rivers State to conduct the affairs of the party. We are aware of these unstable characters, we know that they are joining APP, let them wait during the time, they should face us in the election. Don’t bother about our abuses, we have thick skin, we don’t even know what abuse is, so don’t say anybody is abusing me. If I’m nothing, they will not abuse me,” he further cautioned.
