Tinubu Almost Lost 2023 Woefully, Will Remain President Till 2031 – Wike Boasts

On Friday, Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, declared that President Bola Tinubu will remain in power till 2031.

Wike disclosed this while recounting that Tinubu almost lost the 2023 presidential election woefully.

He pointed out that the naira policy and fuel crisis created by the former All Progressives Congress, APC, administration were aimed at making Tinubu lose the election woefully.

The Minister disclosed this during his media briefing in Abuja on Friday.

Wike also threatened to withhold his support from the Peoples Democratic Party in the FCT council election if the party fails to put its house in order.

According to Wike: “If PDP does not put their house in order, I’m not going to support them in the area councils election. If PDP goes the way they are going, I will not support them.

“This crisis will consume this party until the right thing is being done. I have never recommended anybody to these governors but that does not mean that I don’t play any role.

“Like the governor of Bayelsa, I played a fundamental role, he can’t deny it.

“I have said it in 2023 and I’m saying it again that until 2031, when the position should go to the North, there is nothing anybody will say to me now.

“It’s not anti-party, it’s harmonious living together, you can’t tell me that it’s your own prerogative to be producing president; let’s all live.

“Whether APC liked it or not, it was very turbulent for Tinubu to have scaled through that election. You could see that he could have failed the election woefully. The fuel crisis, the naira issue was terrible.

“No party in government would at that time bring such a policy when you know you are running an election, but everything was done and he survived it.

“That’s how you will know that there are people that, first of all, God is on their side, they also know this game and you must give it to them.”
