The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nysome
Wike, has said that no one can take over his political structure and that he
can fight back against anyone fighting him unjustly.
Wike stated this on Wednesday while welcoming governors
elected on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, in his office.
The governors were on an intervention mission, following the
political feud between Rivers State Governor, Simi Fubara, and the minister,
who is the immediate past governor of the state.
Wike vowed not to allow anyone to take his political
structure, noting that he could never be intimidated by anyone.
His words: “Let me thank my brothers and friends for this
wonderful visit, just to appreciate Mr. President for giving me this position
and we will continue to work for Mr. President to realise his renewed hope
agenda.
“I have made it clear to everybody that I am not here for
any party. I am here for the interest of Nigeria and the unity of the country.
I am still a PDP member and I have never hidden my decision.
“They have talked about the crisis in Rivers state. Let me
tell anybody who cares that nobody can intimidate me.
“It does not matter whether you go and bring thugs, or you
say you are Ijaw. If I want to do something I will do it. Impeachment is not a
military coup, it is provided for under the Constitution.
“About the rumours of money this and that, all that is
rubbish. I just left office how many months ago? And I’m the FCT minister.
“But nobody can take away our political structure, no one. I
have listened to them and for me, you cannot work and people will begin to
bring enemies; those who fought you. Nobody does that.
“I hear they said I
gave a limit of what he can do, I want 25 percent. These are ridiculous. I am
not a political ingrate, but don’t touch the political structure in Rivers
state. I will not shut my eyes.
“Forget about the Obedience and the Atikus, who have lost,
who felt I did not support them, and those who revoke their C of O.
“‘Wike did this, Wike did that’ because I did not support
their presidential candidates. All those things I am not perturbed, I will only
do what is right.
“The President is our father, he has spoken. We will see
where it takes us. But no amount of propaganda; my conscience is clear nobody
can rubbish me.
“I am not a person you can go to social media and say all
kinds of things and you go free. So be careful I can fight back.”
