Wike: Adeleke Would Have Joined APC If Conditions Were Right
Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, revealed during a press conference in Abuja that Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke would have been a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) if conditions had been more favorable. Wike emphasized that Adeleke has never been particularly critical of the Federal Government.
He mentioned a conversation he had with Adeleke on a Saturday regarding the ongoing elections, where Adeleke expressed that the election was proceeding well. Wike also commented on the recent FCT election, alleging that it was rigged and criticizing the government's manipulation of the electoral process.
He suggested that if the APC had won the FCT election, it would have served as a template for defeating the Federal Government, but their loss indicated manipulation by the government.
