I’m Nigeria’s second most abused politician – Wike

FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has described himself as Nigeria’s second most abused politician after President Bola Tinubu, saying the criticism will not deter his support for the president.

Speaking during a thanksgiving service in Ahoada East Local Government Area of Rivers State, Wike recalled standing firmly with Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election when the outcome was uncertain and many politicians avoided openly declaring support.

He said those who took a bold stand for Tinubu at the time played a key role in his victory, especially in Rivers State, and should not be compared with those who now publicly pledge loyalty after the election.

Wike assured his supporters that their sacrifices would not be in vain, stressing that he believes in keeping agreements once decisions are made.

He reiterated that despite insults and political attacks, he remains committed to supporting President Tinubu and standing by his political convictions.
