Nyesom Wike Denies Endorsing Ishaku Abbo for Governor
Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has publicly disowned a social media report that claimed he endorsed Senator Ishaku Abbo, the Labour Party governorship candidate in Adamawa State. This clarification was made through a statement issued on Friday by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka.
The false report suggested that Wike had urged voters in Adamawa to make informed decisions at the polls and described Abbo as the best candidate for leadership. Wike firmly stated that he has no affiliation with the Labour Party or any of its candidates in Adamawa State and has never endorsed Abbo or any other candidate from the party.
He advised the people of Adamawa to ignore the misleading report and emphasized that he would personally announce any candidate he chooses to support.
