Nyesom Wike on Tuesday said All Progressives Congress, APC, governors are not happy that he’s the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.
Wike made the claim against the backdrop of the APC governors opposition to the Rainbow Coalition in Rivers State.
In an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time show, Wike accused the APC of misleading Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State
The minister accused the APC governors of failing to secure a second term for Fubara.
He said: “All these things you are seeing didn’t start today, it started with the ministerial position. They are not happy, APC Governors, that I was given the Minister of FCT.
“During the crisis with my Governor, Fubara, they misled my governor. They couldn’t give the governor a second term.
“Now you are talking about the Rainbow Coalition being a problem, how will it be a problem? Most of us think that because we are governors, we are alpha and omega, anything we decide must happen, it’s not true.
“I was the Minister of State when I ran for the governorship of Rivers in 2015, I defeated the candidate of the incumbent governor.”
