FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has criticised Peter Obi while campaigning for President Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.
The FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has said Peter Obi, the NDC presidential candidate, lacks the ability to tackle Nigeria’s problems and would run off to Cameroon if he were handed the presidency.
Wike made the remarks on Tuesday at a Rainbow Coalition stakeholders’ meeting in Abaji Area Council, Abuja, where he urged residents to back President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
He praised Tinubu for making tough decisions and said Nigeria needs a leader who will face difficult situations rather than abandon the country.
He said the presidency is not a place for political theatrics or public relations.
Wike also told Abaji’s council chairman and local leaders to prove their support for Tinubu by delivering their wards at the polls.
He said the FCT must beat Rivers State in electoral performance, and he cautioned residents against voting for people they do not know, pointing to what he described as mistakes made in the 2023 elections.
He said he will meet FCT youths on Wednesday to discuss mobilisation ahead of the elections.
He also said he is determined to fix Abaji’s electricity problem before 2027 and asked the council chairman to speed up efforts to restore power.
