FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has refuted claims that he is planning to succeed President Bola Tinubu in 2031, according to <source 6b9366b1-91e>. The allegations reportedly suggest that Wike formed the controversial Rainbow Coalition with the intent of positioning himself for the 2031 presidential race.
