Wike Leads Cross-Party Campaign for Tinubu's 2027 Bid
Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, declared himself the field commander for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's re-election campaign in 2027 during a stakeholders' meeting of the Rainbow Coalition in Abuja. He outlined a cross-party mobilization strategy involving members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Wike stated that political differences would not hinder collaboration towards a common goal, asserting his role as the coordinator for both the FCT and Rivers State. He emphasized the coalition's commitment to supporting Tinubu's re-election and the APC's candidates for the Senate and House of Representatives.
The meeting included various stakeholders, such as party chairmen and National Assembly candidates, who expressed their support for the coalition. Wike referenced the 2024 Edo State governorship election to illustrate the effectiveness of political coalitions and highlighted the benefits of Tinubu's administration in the FCT, including infrastructure projects and reforms.
