Wike remains an asset to APC, shouldn’t be embarrassed — Lawmaker

Federal lawmaker Abdulmumin Jibrin has defended Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, stating that he remains an asset to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). Jibrin made these remarks on Wednesday night during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today, where he defended Wike amid criticism from some APC governors over his continued membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and his support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election bid.

Jibrin emphasized that all APC members have benefited from Wike's efforts in delivering Tinubu as Nigeria’s President and managing the government. He urged the governors to recognize Wike's contributions rather than publicly criticize him, emphasizing that Wike has sacrificed significantly for the President and the APC.
