Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike has criticised Oyo State governor Seyi Makinde over comments linked to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Minister Wike spoke on Monday at the 107th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the PDP.
He reacted to claims that he is working for President Bola Tinubu ahead of the 2027 election.
“It’s unfortunate a fight you cannot fight, you started,” Wike said.
He said politics is different from contract work.
“Politics is not a contract. I didn’t go into politics to be a contractor. I went into politics to have power,” he said.
Wike also told party members who plan to contest in 2027 to take part in the process without fear.
He said the absence of PDP governors should not stop members from contesting elections.
He urged them to participate at both state and federal levels.
