‘Whenever Kwara Gov sees snake, he says it’s me’ – Wike

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, says Kwara State governor, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq accuses him of anything that happens either in his office or residence.

Speaking during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time on Tuesday, the minister said whenever the governor sees a snake or any reptile, he would say, “It is Wike.”

Wike also accused Abdulrazaq of focusing more on gossip than on doing the work he was elected to do.

He was speaking against the backdrop of the support by the Rainbow Coalition for the re-election bid of President Bola Tinubu and criticism from some All Progressives Congress (APC) governors.

The former Rivers State governor alleged that Abdulrazaq was only using the situation to cover up the local political problems in Kwara State.

“The governor of Kwara, so unfortunate, anytime he sees a snake, it’s Wike. Anytime he sees a reptile, it’s Wike. Any day he doesn’t eat, it’s Wike. I’ve never seen people who will give time to gossip more than the work they have been given.

“He has three serving senators; he changed all of them. He has House of Representatives members; he changed all of them. Now, if you are a good politician, you’ll see it doesn’t look good,” Wike said.
