A senior member of the All Progressives Congress, Osita Okechukwu, has urged President Bola Tinubu to maintain the political alliance of Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike. Okechukwu argued that Wike's alliance played a crucial role in Tinubu's victory during the 2023 presidential election and could deliver more votes to the president in the upcoming 2027 elections.
He cautioned some APC state governors who are distancing themselves from Wike, suggesting that their actions should be examined in light of past electoral misconduct. Okechukwu highlighted a three-week gap between the January 16, 2027, presidential election and the February 6, 2027, gubernatorial election as an opportunity for voters to assess the performance of both federal and state governments.
He emphasized that this time frame would allow Nigerians to evaluate which leaders have translated increased resources into tangible improvements in citizens' lives versus those who have not.
