The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has accused the opposition coalition of hypocrisy and selfish ambition.

Speaking on Friday during the inauguration of the newly rehabilitated Aguma Palace, Radio Nigeria-New Market Road in Abuja, Wike condemned what he described as the opposition’s misplaced criticism of the current administration.

“God gave you the opportunity to make Nigerians happy, according to you, and you refused.

<strong>Nyesom Wike</strong>

“Because you have left office, you are angry. You are saying Nigerians are angry. No. You are the one who is angry because you want to come back to power. But you won’t come back.” Wike stated. 

Wike, a former governor of Rivers State has been vocal about what he sees as the opposition’s lack of sincerity and their failure to deliver when they held power.
