Wike Refutes Endorsement of Adamawa LP Candidate Abbo
Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has publicly denied endorsing Senator Ishaku Abbo, the Labour Party governorship candidate in Adamawa State. Wike described a social media report that claimed he urged voters to support Abbo as “fake.” His senior special assistant on public communications and social media, Lere Olayinka, conveyed that Wike has no affiliation with the Labour Party or its candidates in Adamawa.
The misleading post attributed to Wike suggested he called for “informed and thoughtful” voting choices, positioning Abbo as the best candidate for the governorship. Wike firmly rejected this assertion, stating he would personally and publicly announce any candidate he chooses to support.
He urged the people of Adamawa to disregard the false report, emphasizing that he would communicate his endorsements directly.
