A former spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Council in the 2023 presidential poll, Daniel Bwala, has described the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, as a glorified commissioner.
Mr Bwala stated this while dismissing claims that the FCT Minister is an equivalent of a state governor.
The legal practitioner stated this on Thursday during an interview on Channels TV current affairs programme, Politics Today.
He noted that Mr Wikes’s core objective as FCT minister is to intimidate the opposition.
“His core objective in being in the FCT is to intimidate and overreach the opponents, you will see this in the coming days and to use the principles in the Machiavellian.
“We are moving towards a one-party system in Nigeria. Most of the problems we see in some African countries are because most of the leaders are trying to make the states practically one party states.
“People massage his (Wike’s) ego to make him feel like he is the governor of the FCT. A minister of the FCT is a glorified commissioner, constitutionally. That is why if FCT were to be a state, it would carry the characteristics, functionalities, and capacity of a state.”
While responding to Me Wike’s statement daring the PDP to sanction him, Mr Bwala assured that the former River State governor would be expelled from the party at the appropriate time.
“We hardly react to him because he loves drama, everybody knows that. The party knows what it is doing. At the appropriate time, he would not only be suspended but expelled. Take that to the bank,” Mr Bwala added.
