I’ll Sack You in 2027, Wike Blasts Senator Ireti Kingibe
The minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has cracked down on Senator Ireti Kingibe. The Senator was granting an interview with the Arise Television when he criticised and whittled down the performance of the minister.
She said that Wike was just bragging about road construction and that the roads didn’t lead to residential areas of the capital territory. She added that the city lacked essential social amenities including schools and hospitals.
But Wike has not let that slide. He provided his response at the opening of a bus terminal on Monday. He said that the lawmaker was ignorant of what he was doing in office.
“I overheard somebody on Arise TV this morning. Unfortunately, I hear the person is a member of the National Assembly and it is unfortunate I say so,” he said.
“With all due respect, what you don’t know, you don’t know, what you know, you know, and the good thing for you is to tell people you don’t when you don’t know, then people will educate you.”
The former Rivers State Governor said that within the short period of time he has spent in office, he has done well.
“If we have done well, we have done well. If we haven’t done well, we haven’t done well. I am proud to say that in the short time that Mr. President has appointed us, we have done well,” he said praising himself.
“You said there are no hospitals and there are no hospitals. You, as a legislator, what have you done? How many bills have you sponsored for us to improve our education and health sector?
“I challenge that legislator. If you are very popular, 2027, come and run under Abuja, we will fail you. Do you think that what happened last time will happen again? It will not happen again. Luckily for me, I am the FCT Minister now. So that is my territory and I’m not afraid.
“So, people should be able to come out and be able to accept the truth. We are not begging for anybody to become our friend; we have so many friends that we cannot even carry along.”
