The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has criticised former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, over his recent defection to the National Democratic Congress.
Wike made the remarks on Wednesday during his monthly media briefing in Abuja, where he questioned Obi’s leadership record and accused him of failing to strengthen the political parties he has been associated with.
According to the minister, Obi’s movement across multiple platforms reflects political opportunism rather than principled leadership.
Wike further alleged that Obi’s latest political move reinforces a pattern of inconsistency.
“He went to ADC. Now ADC has problems. He ran away from ADC again.
“All he is looking for is where food is ready. ‘Mama put’. Who will stabilise if you cannot stabilise?” Wike said.
The FCT minister also referenced reactions to a recent Supreme Court ruling on the ADC leadership crisis, pointing to what he described as contradictions in the positions taken by Obi and his supporters.
