Former Ekiti State governor and Rural Electrification Agency chairman, Ayo Fayose, has commented on the recent clash between the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, and the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governors’ Forum. The forum, headed by Imo State governor Hope Uzodimma, has distanced itself from Wike’s Rainbow Coalition in Rivers State, as shown in an online video.
Uzodimma criticized the APC governors for endorsing an alliance that could jeopardize Tinubu’s re-election and weaken the party ahead of the 2027 elections.
In response, Wike appeared on Arise TV and dismissed the governors as "smart but politically lazy," asserting that he would not assist them in winning their state elections. The former Ekiti governor, who spoke on Channels TV, noted that "Nigerians know who Wike is and the Governors’ Forum," and suggested that both parties were issuing conflicting statements.
Fayose emphasized that the dispute between Wike and the governors "has nothing to do with the winning of the president" but acknowledged that everyone, including himself, has personal egos.
