FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has offered a N10 million incentive to councillors who successfully deliver their respective wards to President Bola Tinubu and other All Progressives Congress candidates ahead of the 2027 general elections. This proposition was announced during a meeting with stakeholders from the Rainbow Coalition in Kwali Area Council.
Wike urged councillors to engage residents and community groups to ensure victory for the APC in their wards. He further endorsed Senator Philip Aduda for the FCT Senate seat and Danladi Chiya for the Abuja South Federal Constituency. Dismissing legal criticisms, Wike criticized the opposition's inconsistent reactions to judicial rulings, asserting that the judiciary should be trusted regardless of the outcome.
He also defended his administration's recent decision to provide brand-new SUVs to first-class traditional rulers, emphasizing that traditional leaders deserve respect and dignity. Wike is confident that the ongoing infrastructure projects, including over 270 kilometres of new roads, will result in their inauguration by December.
He implored voters to support President Tinubu and other APC candidates based on the administration's track record of delivering results.
