Nigerian activist Aisha Yesufu has criticized FCT Minister Nyesom Wike for allegedly lying about the G5 governors' strategy in the 2023 presidential election. Wike had claimed that the group deliberately allowed Peter Obi to win South-South states, as the PDP was stronger in the region and Atiku Abubakar posed a threat. Yesufu, in a post on X, disputed Wike's claim, highlighting that three G5 governors who ran for Senate in 2023 all lost their elections.
She wrote, "Wike LIED!!!!! 3 of the G5 Governors ran for Senate. They all lost!" Yesufu questioned how Wike could be so powerful if he couldn't secure a win during the same election day and time. She concluded, "Wike is petrified of life outside of government!!!! E don dey clear for I’m eye!" Wike had previously stated that the G5 strategy contributed to Obi's performance in the South-South but insisted that Rivers was deliberately excluded from the arrangement.
