‘IF YOU’RE ANGRY, GO HANG YOURSELF ON A TRANSFORMER’ – WIKE TO SENATOR KINGIBE

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has told the Senator representing the FCT, Ireti Kingibe, to go and hang herself on a transformer if she is not happy with what he is doing in the FCT.

Wike also declared that he is not asking to be anybody’s friend, but his focus is on doing the job for which he was appointed by President Bola Tinubu.

The Minister said this on Monday in response to an earlier claim by the Senator that FCT residents are not impressed with Wike’s performance. She had alleged that Wike is out of touch with the needs of the FCT residents.

According to her, the FCT has no schools, no hospitals and lacks potable water.

However, Wike, in response, told her that he is not in office to please her, adding that he has done well within the short time of his appointment.

He also questioned the contributions of Senator Kingibe to the welfare and development of the FCT/Abuja residents since she assumed office as their legislator in the National Assembly.

Wike went ahead to challenge Kingibe to contest the FCT seat again in 2027 if she thinks she’s popular.A confident Wike assured that she would lose the election, saying what happened the last time would not repeat itself.

    FUBARA SPEAKS ON REINSTATEMENT OF PRO-WIKE LAWMAKERS, SAYS ‘I’VE CONFIDENCE IN GOD’S GUIDANCE’ Rivers State Governor, Similanayi Fubara, has broken his silence on the recent Appeal Court ruling that reinstated the 27 pro-Wike lawmakers. He commented on the issue while speaking to journalists in Khana, Khana Local Government Area on Friday. Governor Fubara expressed his confidence in God’s guidance and provision, citing Psalm 23:5. He assured the people of Rivers State that his administration remains committed to delivering good governance despite challenges. He said: “I know that a lot of you will be wondering what is going on and all that. Government has its own challenges. If you go to the book of Psalm 23 verse 5, in the Bible, it said that God prepares a table before you; it can be before anybody. But there is an underlined word that should be noted there: it said ‘in the presence of your enemies’. So, it means that nothing comes easy. “I want to assure everyone of you and the good people of Rivers State, that we are not deterred. We have made our promises, we will continue to give you good governance, no matter how difficult it is. “But, like I said before, the worse is over. We are moving on to ensure that we continue to provide what is needed for the development of our state.” Governor Fubara also highlighted his administration’s priority sectors: health, education, and agriculture. He announced plans to visit project sites in Degema, Ahoada, Omoku, and Rumuigbo to inspect the progress of the Modern General and Psychiatric Hospitals. The Governor expressed satisfaction with the ongoing zonal hospital project in Khana, which will benefit not only the people of Khana and Gokana but also his own constituency, Opobo/Nkoro. He assured the people that his administration would complete and utilize the facility for quality healthcare. Governor Fubara noted that his administration inherited non-functional zonal hospitals and released funds last month for the reconstruction and expansion of four zonal hospitals to provide quality healthcare facilities for the people.
