A group which described itself as the Coalition of Rivers State Leaders of Thoughts has cautioned those it described as ‘political elements’ against distracting Nyesom Wike from discharging his duties as Minister for the betterment of Federal Capital Territory and Nigeria.
The group in a statement jointly signed by the Convener, Chief Sunnie Chukumele, and Chairman, Board of Trustee of the NGO, Retired Gen. A. B Mamman (Rtd) respectively in Abuja on Sunday said Wike will replicate his feat as Rivers governor in Abuja if he is not distracted.
The group said, “We caution that Wike should be allowed to discharge his duties and mandate for the betterment of FCT and Nigeria.
- Wike: Ignore noise makers, it’s not yet time for politics
- Wike wins as Fubara recognises Amaewhule as Rivers Assembly Speaker
- Rivers Elders counter Fubara on peace deal, say it’s death sentence, enslavement
“How can Abuja develop without an intentional and purposeful administration such as Wike is showing. Take a look at what he did in Rivers State as governor and know what he will turn Abuja into,” they said.
According to the group, it is better to always engage constructively than to engage in an embarrassing public show.
“We however wish to commend those other groups that showed solidarity with our son. At least, it shows that there are numerous others who appreciate the good works of Wike in the FCT”.
