Coalition members led by Atiku are attracted to their stomachs – Wike

The Minister of Federal Capital Region (FCT), Nyesom Wike, on Sunday accused that the new opposition coalition was formed about personal interests rather than the welfare of the Nigerians.

The Minister spoke on the Thanksgiving service to mark the completion of the project by the FCT administration.

He criticized many coalition members, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. A former Senate President, David Mark, former Interior Minister, Rauf Aregbesola, Transportation Partners, Rotimi Amaechi and Attorney General Federation, Abubakar Halami. for what he calls “political prostitution” and poor performance while in office

Wike last week scolded the leaders of the coalition movement spearheaded by Atiku for deceiving the Nigerians.

At the Sunday event, the former Governor of the State Rivers condemned the constant change to the parties by the players in the country’s political room.

He said: “How could Nigerians not be angry with you?

“In 1999, you were at this party. In 2006. In 2014, you moved to another party. In 2019, you returned to another party.

“Now, in 2025, have you moved to another party? To save who?

“You want to save your stomach; not the Nigerian you want to save.

“Some of you have sympathy for someone you don’t know.

“You say Peter Obi will be president. Where is the president? For eight years, he is the governor; he has never conducted a local government election.

“That’s what you describe as democracy. Only you are the Governor and Chair of the Regional Government.

“Ask yourself a question. Just ask yourself.
