Gov. Bala Mohammed Should Leave Me Out Of His Problems – Wike

Nyesom Wike

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has asked Gov. Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State to leave him out of his problems. He recently gave the advice during his “thank you” visit to Abua-Odual Local Government Area (LGA) of Rivers State.

According to him, Bala accusing him of orchestrating the current crises in the state is wild, and he can only urge the Governor to stop the blame game and face his problems.

Wike added that Mohammed should learn to retreat if he does not have enough strength and power to fight.

His words, “If you do not have such power, why are you fighting? If you have the power to put out the fire, then go ahead and do it.

You came to my state. I told you to be careful. Leave my state alone because you wanted to impose a party leader in my state.

I warned him: ‘You will see the consequences.’ Today, he does not have a party to produce his successor. That is exactly what I warned him about.

If you know you do not have the strength to fight, why don’t you retreat?”

What is my business? If your state is clean, go there and clear yourself. Don’t come and tell Nigerians stories. Leave me alone and go and face your problems.

You said I was selling land. You were Minister of the Federal Capital Territory from 2010 to 2015; why not tell Nigerians what you did in Abuja?

You sold land everywhere. The contracts you awarded – you couldn’t complete them. Now I am the one completing the projects.

Nigerians are singing our praises every day. That means I have done well, and I will continue to do well.”

WOW.
