Senator Adams Oshiomhole has offered a glowing review of Nyesom Wike’s leadership as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, remarking that he “did wonders in the FCT local government elections.”
The former Edo State Governor made these comments during a significant ceremony marking the handover of 54 pieces of heavy construction equipment to the 18 Local Government Areas across Edo State.
Reflecting on Wike’s influence during the recent FCT polls, Oshiomhole noted that the results spoke for themselves, stating: “If anybody was in doubt, he did the one that yesterday when his party came second after APC. To take second after APC, no issue. Particularly where some people got not over 100.”
Oshiomhole went further to highlight the historic nature of Wike’s appointment, describing him as “the first person from our geopolitical zone, South South, to go to Abuja as a city minister and minister in a way that has refined and redefined the concept of development.”
The Senator also took a moment to acknowledge the importance of regional cooperation, expressing his gratitude toward local leadership for maintaining strong ties with the FCT administration.
“I want to congratulate you. And I want to thank our governor for sustaining the friendship with the honorable minister of FCT,” Oshiomhole added, reinforcing the theme of political synergy.
