Federal Capital Territory (FCT) minister Nyesom Wike has blasted the anti-Tinubu coalition.
He recently described its members as a gang of failed and expired politicians, and Nigerians have been reacting.
Speaking during an interview, Wike revealed that the coalition members have absolutely nothing to offer Nigerians.
According to him, it is baffling how Senator David Mark, whose ambition to be chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) was met with massive resistance, has now been allowed to take up the same position at the ADC.
He stated that David Mark was Senate President for 8 solid years and did nothing, so he is the last person who should say he has tangible plans to rescue Nigerians.
“I heard David Mark say they want to rescue Nigeria. That Nigerians are not happy. But the man was Senate President for 8 years, and Nigerians were happy? There was no single project in Otukpo. Not one. He was flying with a helicopter to Otukpo. Nigerians were not angry then, but they are angry now?” he said.
He further noted that Rotimi Amaechi, trying to be Nigeria’s saviour, is also funny since he was the brain behind taking Chinese loans and making the country heavily indebted to China.
Blasting the coalition members for desperately doing anything to stay relevant in politics, he stressed that they only know Nigerians are unhappy when they lose power.
Wike concluded by saying that banditry did not start when Tinubu became president, so his detractors should not act like BAT is the reason the recent killings happened.
“Amaechi was minister. He took Chinese loans and made Nigeria so indebted to China. So, Nigerians were happy then?
When you were in power, Nigerians were happy, but the moment you are no longer in power, Nigerians are no longer happy.
I saw Sirika. What happened to Air Nigeria? Nigerians were happy then?
When they went to APC in 2013 and took over power, Nigerians were happy, but no longer happy today?
Was it under Tinubu’s government that banditry came? What is he doing? To solve the problems he met.
I read what Malami wrote. It was so shameful. He was AGF. What did he do? What was his contribution to resolving the security challenges?
Tambuwal was Speaker for four years. What did he do to make Nigerians not be angry? He was governor for eight years. What did he do? What kind of politics are we playing?” he added.
