The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, has stated that he would give appropriate response to the statement made by former governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, in due course.
Naija News recalls that Tambuwal had said on Channels Television’s Politics Today last Friday, that his political choices had always been guided by principles of leadership and not by personal relationships, and that he would support former Vice President Atiku Abubakar over Wike, if he had to make a choice on who should lead the country.
He said, “When it comes to leadership of this country and leadership of the people, tomorrow, not even today, I would rather support Atiku than Nyesom Wike.
“It is a collaboration; it is not something difficult. Once it is about being altruistic and nothing personal. You have never seen me going against President Bola Tinubu personally, you have never heard of me going against Nyesom Wike personally.”
Reacting in a statement on Monday, the Minister’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, stated that the FCT Minister won’t let Tambuwal’s latest diatribe against him and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu go un-responded to.
Olayinka said; “I have been inundated with calls, especially from journalists, seeking the Minister’s reaction.
“Apart from what he said against the Minister, Tambuwal also cast aspersions on President Tinubu and such will not go unresponded to.
“Therefore, what I can say is that the Minister will respond accordingly. He will definitely tell Nigerians what a betrayal is and what it means to have integrity.
“Till then, let’s keep our fingers crossed.”
