Dickson Iroegbu, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP/Obidient Movement, has claimed that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, now sees himself as more powerful than President Bola Tinubu.
Iroegbu made this assertion on Friday while speaking during ‘Prime Time’, a programme aired on Arise Television and monitored by an online news platform.
He stated that the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, handed Wike the opportunity to dismantle the PDP, stressing that the minister is now attempting to undermine Nigeria’s democratic system.
“The truth of the matter is that APC, through the enabling of the president, gave Wike the platform with which he has used now almost to scuttle democracy in Nigeria.
“They positioned him to wreck, undermine and possibly annihilate the PDP. And having almost succeeded in that, he now thinks himself bigger than the President.
“Because if you listened to the meetings he had with some of his supporters in Rivers state and all of that, you would hear him say nobody (he didn’t exempt anybody) can decide what happens in the state.
“Wike has become larger than life as created by the Tinubu administration, and we hope that this fight continues so that Nigerians can now take back their country,” he said.
