Former Lawmaker Urges Tinubu to Rethink His Relationship with Wike
A former member of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Jude Idimogu, has advised President Bola Tinubu to reconsider his relationship with Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike. Idimogu expressed concerns over the ongoing Rivers State crisis and its potential impact on Nigeria’s crude oil production quotas, as set by OPEC.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Idimogu criticized Wike for the turmoil in Rivers State, emphasizing the delicate position of the state due to its significance in Nigeria’s oil production. He warned that if the situation is not managed carefully, it could lead to further complications for the nation.
While acknowledging that Tinubu’s intervention in the crisis between Wike and his successor, Siminalayi Fubara, was a step in the right direction, Idimogu argued that the intervention came too late. He further criticized Wike for allegedly holding the country to ransom, despite his contributions to Tinubu’s electoral victory.
Idimogu stated:
“The president is gambling. Wike shouldn’t hold the country and Rivers State to ransom. Even though Wike has helped us win the election, it doesn’t mean the president cannot do without him. Wike is bad market for the APC and for the president.”
He called on Tinubu to reassess Wike’s role, particularly regarding his position as FCT Minister, and suggested that there may be other capable individuals who could serve the country better.
Idimogu also lamented that Nasir El-Rufai, former Kaduna Governor, who worked diligently for Tinubu’s success, was not given a similar opportunity for service, unlike Wike.
