Wednesday, June 4, 2025 - Media personality, Reuben Abati, has asked President Bola Tinubu to be wary of Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
While speaking on Arise TV this morning, Abati criticised
Wike for being “disrespectful and rude” to those who played significant roles
in his political career.
During a media chat on Monday, June 3, Wike took a swipe at
Amaechi over his recent comments on hunger, dismissing them as “politically
motivated.”
The FCT minister said Amaechi could not have been hungry for
food after twenty years in several political positions.
‘’Now that
they are out of power, they say they are hungry. It’s not hunger for food. It’s
hunger for power,” Wike said during a media parley on Monday morning.''
Wike said
Reacting to Wike’s comment, Abati said Wike “talks
carelessly” about his former political bosses, adding that the minister has a
character flaw. Abati described Wike as a rude politician, noting that Amaechi
is Wike’s boss in the field of politics.
“I think
that Nyesom Wike is very rude and disrespectful because Rotimi Amaechi is his
boss in politics. When he was local government chairman or was it councillor
during Amaechi’s second term, it was Rotimi Amaechi that helped him to become
local government chairman.”
Abati recounted a time when Wike knocked an elder statesman,
Peter Odili, stating that he (Odili) did not qualify to be an elder.
“There is no
time he has not insulted Peter Odili. He even referred to him as one man and
his wife as one woman.
He also advised President Bola Tinubu to be wary of Wike
because he could insult him in the future just as he has done with Amaechi and
others.
“Who will
Nyesom Wike not insult? He insulted Senator John Mbata, who was his godfather
at some point. He also showed signs that he will insult President Bola
Tinubu
He pointed
out that if he had known that President Tinubu would declare a state of
emergency in Rivers, he would have offered a different kind of advice.
That is
already a signal to Tinubu that this man you are dealing with is only
interested in his own permanent interests, not permanent friends. President
Tinubu should beware because tomorrow he will also abuse this same President
Tinubu.” he said
