As political landscape in Rivers state continues rumbling,the immediate former governor which is now working for president Tinubu's All Progressive Party (APC) Nyesom Wike has open up on his political interest in his state.
Wike Emphasizes the Significance of Political Base The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has underscored the crucial role of a political base in maintaining political relevance.
During a meeting with South-South leaders in his Abuja office, Wike stated that losing one’s political base equates to losing political significance.
He emphasized that preserving one’s political structure is essential for maintaining relevance in the political arena.
Wike asserted, “All of us want to be politically relevant; all of us want to maintain our political structure. Is it not your political structure? Will you allow anybody to just cut you out immediately?
Everybody has a base. If you take my base, am I not politically irrelevant?” The political relationship between Wike and the Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara, is reported to be strained. This discord has prompted some members of the Rivers State House of Assembly, purportedly loyal to Wike, to initiate impeachment proceedings against Fubara. Wike’s comments highlight the significance of a solid political base in navigating the intricacies of political influence and relevance.
