FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike has disclosed that he is not distracted by the political saga in Rivers State.
Wike said if he was distracted by the crisis, many projects ready for commissioning in FCT would not be possible.
There are several insinuations making the rounds that Wike is distracted and he is not focusing on his job as the FCT minister with the current political crisis in Rivers state.
The minister, who was the immediate past governor of Rivers state, said on Friday, May 17, in Abuja while inspecting some key projects ready for commissioning by President Bola Tinubu, starting from May 27 to mark his one-year in office.
Wike said: “I am not distracted as FCT minister. If I’m distracted you will not see all these projects in FCT.”
According to him, Tinubu will be commissioning projects which will last for nine days in FCT. (The Nation)
