2027 Abuja race: Wike dares to crush Ireti Kingibe’s popularity

By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The FCT Minister Barr Nyesom Wike has dared to crush the popularity of Senator Ireti Kingibe representing the FCT in the National Assembly if she comes to run for elective office in 2027.

Wike gave this challenge on Monday in Abuja at the flag – off of the Mabushi Bus Terminal ceremony following Senator Ireti Kingibe’s comment on Arise Television for turning sour over public praise and accolades on Wike’s administration in office.
He said, “I overheard somebody on Arise Television this morning. Unfortunately, I hear the person is a member of the National Assembly.”

” With all due respect, what you don’t know, you don’t know what you know you, the good thing for you is to tell people you don’t know, then people will educate you.”
Wike lambasted Sen. Kingibe for her negative aspirations over public praises on his office.

He said, ‘The Honorable Minister of state and my humble self have not been in office for more than Months and the person is angry that they are praising us. If you don’t want to or you are angry about that, go and hand yourself in a transformer.”

” If we have done well, we have done well. If we haven’t done well, we haven’t done well.”

” I’m proud to say that in the short time that Mr. The President has appointed us, we have done well.”
If you are angry that people are praising us, by next year your BP level will go very high because the praises you would see would be too much, he teased the legislator.

Wike also advised Sen. Kingibe rather engage in sponsoring bills to improve the education and health sector, instead of judging his administration.

“You said there are no hospitals. You, as a legislator, what have you done? How many bills have you sponsored for us to improve our education and health sector?”

He said, “I challenge that legislator. If you are very popular, in 2027 come and run under Abuja, we will fail you. Do you think that, what happened last time, will happen again? It will not happen again. Luckily for me, I am the FCT Minister now. So that is my territory, and I’m not afraid.”

So, people should be able to come out and be able to accept the truth, he advised.

We are not begging for anybody to become our friend, we have so many friends that we cannot even carry along. Therefore, how can we go and be begging people to become our friends. We are not interested in that, he said.
