The Church Made Mistakes That Almost Cost Nigeria’s Future In 2023 – Wike Says

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, on Sunday revealed that the church nearly made a grave error in 2023—one he believes could have jeopardized the future of Nigeria.

He spoke during the official thanksgiving service for the successful completion of projects commissioned by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at St. James’ Anglican Church, Asokoro in Abuja

He cautioned the church to be careful against making such a similar mistake in 2027.

The Minister urged church leaders to ask politicians in their denominations for advice on what is happening within the political space.

According to Wike: “Let me use this opportunity to tell us, particularly the church you nearly made the worst mistake in 2023, we have to be very careful this time around.

“You took a decision that would have cost some of us our future, ask us questions, we are the politicians.

“You have to be careful of what they tell you, if that thing had happened some of us wouldn’t have been here today.

“If you want us to educate you, call us – you have senators in this church, call on them, askwhat is going on and they would be able to educate you. Blackmail, they are at it again.”
