The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said there is no regret in supporting President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 general elections.
Naija News recalls that Wike governed Rivers State for eight years under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) platform before his ministerial appointment.
During a thanksgiving service in Ochigba by the PDP in Ahoada East and West Local Government Areas of the state, Wike appreciated President Tinubu for believing in him.
According to the FCT Minister, he was threatened before the presidential elections for supporting Tinubu, adding that he would do the same thing if another opportunity comes.
He said, “I have no regrets, I have no apologies. If the opportunity comes I will do the same thing.”
Meanwhile, Wike has openly acknowledged that he masterminded the removal of Uche Secondus as the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Wike stated on Thursday that Secondus wanted his cousin, Tele Ikuru, to be the next Governor of Rivers State against the will of the people and didn’t support the candidacy of Siminalayi Fubara.
The FCT Minister said Secondus was removed because of his actions.
Naija News reports Wike made the disclosure while speaking at the Ahoada East and Ahoada West PDP end-of-year thanksgiving held in Ochigba, Ahoada East Local Government Area of Rivers State.
He also berated former Rivers State Governor, Celestine Omehia, and Governor Fubara over recent comments during the commissioning of projects in Rivers State.
Responding to Secondus, who allegedly labelled him an “enemy of the state,” Wike questioned the newfound alliance of the former PDP Chairman with Governor Fubara.
