Fayose Challenges Wike Over 2027 Election Predictions
Isaac Fayose, a Nigerian businessman and political commentator, responded to Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, who stated he would resign if President Bola Tinubu fails to win the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and Rivers State in the upcoming presidential election scheduled for January 16, 2027. Wike emphasized his accountability as FCT Minister, declaring he would announce his resignation on January 17, 2027, if Tinubu loses in both territories.
In a Facebook post, Fayose asserted that Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), would defeat Tinubu in both the FCT and Rivers State if the election were conducted fairly. He referenced Obi's previous performance in Abuja during the 2023 presidential election and predicted an even stronger showing in 2027.
Fayose claimed that the APC would not secure 25 percent of the votes in Abuja and urged Wike to seek another job, stating, "Abuja and Rivers are not yours.".
