Wike defends rainbow coalition, says ‘Tinubu’s re-election my priority’

FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has stated that his primary political concern is securing President Bola Tinubu's re-election in 2027. According to Wike, his major political priority is to ensure Tinubu secures a second term.

Wike also defended the 'Rainbow Coalition', a cross-party platform he established, saying it is aimed at mobilising support for President Tinubu. The coalition has been a subject of disagreement, with some APC governors expressing concerns that it could weaken the party or affect its candidates in the 2027 elections.

Wike has made it clear that he will support President Tinubu with all his might and strength. Daily Post Nigeria reported that Wike questioned criticism of the coalition, saying it was designed to bring together APC members.
