Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike has expressed confidence that the alliances his political camp has formed, the 2027 elections will be a walk in the park for them.
Speaking at a thanksgiving service in Koroma Tai, Rivers State on Sunday in honour of the re-election of Senator Barry Mpigi, also stated that the two dominant parties such as the PDP and APC are united for the purpose.
Wike said: “With the forces we have I don’t know of anybody who can challenge us. I can tell you it is like tomorrow is 2027. For me it is still very far, I can’t wait. The two leadership of the party, APC is here, PDP is here; where can you find that leadership unity? Which state? It is only in Rivers that you can find that unity.
“And that is what many people don’t like. When they see people united and working together, they find how to make sure they are divided but since we know, we have refused to be divided.
“This is the only state where the leading party will win for president, the opposition party will take national assembly in election that was done the same time, same minute and same hour. That is uncommon.”
The minister also sought the support of Rivers people for President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms and policies in the country.
Wike maintained that it won’t be easy to turn the fortunes of the nation around in a short time.
“God in His infinite mercies will continue to give us the strength to work together to support Mr President. So many people in this country hardly remember yesterday, we are in a rush – we have problem, but have you asked yourself how was yesterday? Decisions of Mr President, if we are patient by the end of the day, we will get to where we want to get to,” he said.
