Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, has accused some governors of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, of playing double sides against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He said the governors “love the president at night but say a different thing” during the day.
The former governor of Rivers State said this at the PDP’s Secretariat in Port Harcourt during the party’s state congress, on Saturday.
In the meeting, he explained his decision to work against the PDP during the presidential election was because they ignored justice, fairness, and equity during the last presidential election.
Wike said, “I didn’t hide it in 2023 when I said PDP I would not support you for presidential election, I said I won’t support PDP because it refused to allow equity, fairness, and justice. So, I have no regrets.
“When Buhari was there, you never saw me play two sides; I never went to the Villa at night only to come out in the day to shout.
“Some of them now love the president at night, but during the day, they say different things.
“Be a man of character, stand so that people will know that this is who you are. I hear some people saying we are supporting somebody else, why won’t we support him?
“We defeated your own candidates, tell us who was your candidate in 2023? They all lost, they are not ashamed that what they didn’t plant, they want to harvest. An armed robber is an armed robber any day, any time.”
This are very strong accusations against these governors coming from Wike and we hope there are responses from the PDP camp.
