FCT Minister Nyesom Wike challenged any PDP governor or leader to accuse him of being a mole on national TV. He made the statement during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today in Abuja on Friday night.
The FCT minister said, “Before I accepted my appointment as Minister, I wrote a letter to the PDP in my state, I wrote a letter to the PDP in my zone; I wrote a letter to the PDP national, who in PDP is saying I’m a mile, name names.
“The problem we have in this country is that some people think they’re smart. What I want to do I will do, what I don’t want to do I will not do.
“I dare any body in PDP, I dare any governor, I dare any National Working Committee member to come on national television to say I’m a mole.
“In 2023, did I not say I won’t suppot the PDP (Presidential) candidate because it is against equity, it is against fairness? Did I do it at the back?
“Did the PDP not win the governorship? Did the PDP not win the National Assembly? Did PDP not win the state assembly? I challenge any of them in any of this (PDP) states who won 100 percent as we have. How did we do it? Leadership!”
He described himself as a man of his words. He revealed that Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, approached him to seek support for his preferred successor, Dr. Asue Ighodalo, but he told him to his face he would not because his support for Obaseki in the past earned him nothing but unending insults.
While admitting that the Edo State Resident Electoral Commissioner, is his first cousin, Wike said, just like him, “Nobody can intimidate my cousin, not even the INEC Chairman. Nobody born of a woman can intimidate my cousin into doing what is is not right.”
He pointed out that the Edo REC was assigned to the state over a year ago and questioned why PDP members are raising the issue now. The former Rivers State Governor also criticized Governor Similaye Fubara for betraying the political family that supported his rise to power, calling it an unforgivable offence.
