Nyesom Wike, the current minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and a former governor of Rivers State, has promised not to run against President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
During a media chat, Wike gave this guarantee and refuted rumours that he might run against Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election, citing his moral integrity.
“They carry all kinds of information, and they say, oh, Wike will run against Tinubu, how? some people dont have character at all. So you look at me after being FCT minister, I will go and collect forms under which party if it is APC, I collect the form of APC and look at who I want to run against; I mean, people don’t just have character or I went to PDP, they give me form, I want to run against Tinubu, these are political tyrants callous who have no character, I have character,” Wike said.
His remarks coincide with speculation that the former governor of the state of Rivers would select the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) platform for the 2027 presidential contest.
But Wike asserted that he had no intention of running against President Tinubu in the presidential race, having served as the FCT minister under him.
