Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Nyesom Wike has said that he does not see any formidable entity that can challenge his political alliance in 2027.
Wike stated this on Sunday during a thanksgiving service by Senator Barinada Mpigi in Koroma, Tai Local Government Area of Rivers State.
“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,” he said.
“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.”
Wike urged the public to give President Bola Tinubu time for his economic reforms to take shape in the country.
The event was also attended by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, minister of works, Dave Umahi; speaker of Rivers State House of Assembly, Martin Amaewhule, among others.
