Samuel Okechukwu Nwanosike, also known as Ishi Nwanosike and former Chairman of Ikwerre Local Government Area in Rivers State, has issued a stern political warning regarding former Governor Rotimi Amaechi ahead of the 2027 general election.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a widely circulated video, Nwanosike—a staunch loyalist of FCT Minister Nyesom Wike—asserted that it will be an uphill battle for Amaechi to secure any electoral victory in Rivers State. Nwanosike criticized the former governor and current political figure, claiming that despite holding major public offices over the past twenty years, the Ikwerre people have received minimal benefit from his leadership and that he has allegedly undermined his peers.

Highlighting the intensity of the upcoming political contest, Nwanosike warned that the opposition faction should stay away until legal matters regarding party recognition are resolved, stating that the ensuing campaign conflict would extend far beyond public streets and directly to the doorstep of the former governor.

“Amaechi was in the House of Assembly two times, Ikwerre people supported him to be governor two times, and he was a minister for two tenures. Instead of helping the Ikwerre people, he decided to destroy even his friends. Yet he believes that it’s only him that is from the Ikwerre Local Government.

“We are here to tell the world and his political faction that until the Supreme Court decides which faction of the ADC is to be recognized by INEC, they should not bother coming home. E go red.

“We will bring the battle to their bedroom not the street,” he stated.

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has dismissed rumors that he is lobbying to become the Director-General of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council for the 2027 general election.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Speaking through his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, Wike clarified that he has not discussed holding any leadership or membership role within the proposed campaign council. The rumors had previously named him among several key officials allegedly eyeing the top campaign post for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid.

Addressing the claims, Wike reaffirmed his unwavering support for President Tinubu’s second-term aspirations, emphasizing that his backing is entirely independent of any formal campaign appointment.

Currently vacationing abroad after more than 30 consecutive days of heavy project inspections, commissionings, and new project flag-offs in the FCT—with more set for December and January—Wike stated that his immediate priority upon returning remains unchanged. He intends to focus fully on delivering his ministerial mandate under the Renewed Hope Agenda and securing a massive electoral victory for President Tinubu in both Rivers State and the FCT, with or without an official campaign title.

“Therefore, I do not need to be the DG or even member of the Presidential Campaign Council of Mr President’s political party to contribute my quota by ensuring that he wins handsomely in Rivers State and the FCT,” Wike stated.

Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike has officially gone on leave following a rigorous period of commissioning, flagging off, and inspecting various projects to mark the third anniversary of President Bola Tinubu’s administration. His media aide, Lere Olayinka, confirmed the holiday on Monday while withholding the minister’s specific vacation destination. Olayinka noted that Wike decided to unwind after spending over a month commissioning infrastructure, with additional projects lined up for official unveiling in December and January.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a separate development, Wike commented on political realignments ahead of the 2027 elections, asserting that former Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi cannot add substantial value to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s political prospects. Claiming that an Atiku-Amaechi ticket would face significant hurdles, Wike alleged during a media chat that any partnership would be driven by financial considerations rather than strategic political gain.
