The Atiku Movement (TAM) has called for the immediate sack of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, describing his recent remarks as “outrageous and delusional.”
In a statement released on Saturday, October 4 by its media team, the group accused Wike of claiming personal credit for major road and water projects in Abuja. They said the minister spoke “as if they were funded by his personal piggy bank.”
TAM fumed: “This is a slap in the face to every Nigerian taxpayer whose hard-earned money built those infrastructures, not the bloated ego of a political turncoat.”
The statement further blasted Wike, saying: “Wike’s audacity to boast about ‘his’ projects while betraying the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and groveling to the All Progressives Congress (APC) exposes him as an opportunist who serves only himself. His reckless rhetoric proves he views public office as a personal fiefdom, not a service to the people. This is the height of arrogance from a man who has failed to deliver security and governance, threatening to redeploy officials while hiding behind empty threats.”
The movement went on to demand President Bola Tinubu to sack the former Rivers Governor without delay, describing his stay in office as an embarrassment to governance. “TAM demands Wike’s immediate sacking by President Tinubu. He has no business occupying such a critical post. His tenure is a disgrace to democracy, and his removal is non-negotiable. Nigerians deserve leaders, not leeches like Wike who feast on our resources while mocking our struggles,” the statement read.
Concluding, TAM warned: “The Atiku Movement stands firm, sack Wike now, or face the wrath of a united Nigerian populace in 2027.”
