Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has reaffirmed his unwavering allegiance to President Bola Tinubu, insisting that his political stronghold in Rivers State remains solidly behind the President, despite growing internal party tensions.
Wike made this known on Tuesday through a post on X, where he shared details of his ongoing political engagements across Rivers State.
According to him, after holding meetings in Oyigbo and Ogu-Bolo Local Government Areas, his consultations were set to continue in Akuku-Toru and Degema LGAs.
He described his activities as grassroots political engagement and emphasised that his loyalty to President Tinubu is unwavering.
He wrote, “Yesterday, we were in Oyigbo and Ogu-Bolo LGAs.
“Today, we will be in Akuku-Toru and Degema LGAs.
“Here, it is local politics and our support for Mr President is total,” he stated.
His remarks come at a time of heightened political friction between him and the National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ajibola Basiru, over influence and control in Rivers State. (The Nation)
