- President Tinubu’s appointment of Nyesom Wike as FCT Minister is praised by Umar Faringado Kazaure for Wike’s nationalist stance and record
- Wike’s appointment is seen as a move to enhance national unity and development in the Federal Capital Territory
President Bola Tinubu made one of the best decisions when he appointed the immediate-past governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, to the Ministry of Federal Capital Territory (MFCT) as Minister-designate.
This was revealed by Umar Faringado Kazaure, a young Jigawa State politician, in a statement he signed in Abuja on Thursday.
President Tinubu assigned portfolios to the 45 Ministers-designate approved by the Senate on Wednesday.
Given Wike’s nationalist stance and track record in Rivers State, Faringado believes he will make the FCT a true rallying point of unity for all Nigerians in the interest of national cohesion and development.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s choice of Chief Nyesom Wike as FCT Minister is one of the best decisions he has made so far. Because Nigerians know Chief Nyesom Wike as a nationalist and a performer given his record of service in Rivers State, where he served as governor for eight years.
He will definitely engender national unity and development with his new role and turn the Federal Capital Territory to an architectural masterpiece. President Bola Tinubu is lucky to have Chief Nyesom Wike on board, Faringado stated.
He congratulated the former governor even as he called on him to replicate his people-oriented projects as seen in Rivers State in the nation’s capital of Abuja.
