Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Nyesom Wike has disclosed an encounter he had with some miscreants when he visited a restaurant in Abuja to eat.
Wike spoke during a media chat while answering questions on his assessment by FCT residents following the remarkable transformation of parts of the city.
The former governor of Rivers State said he stepped out without his security details to eat in an undisclosed restaurant but became uncomfortable as miscreants gathered at the facility begging him for money.
“There was a day when I went to one of the restaurants to eat, and I didn’t go with security. Upon my arrival, I encountered over 50 people coming to greet me, and I didn’t know what to do.
“Of course, I didn’t feel safe; you can’t interpret that as people liking you.
“I told the restaurant workers that I would come back, but at that point, I was no longer comfortable. As soon as I stepped outside, I saw some miscreants waiting for me to give them money”, he said.
The Minister also disclosed plans by the FCT Administration to ban Motorcycle and Tricycle from the city center over security concerns.
