You Can’t Take Atiku’s Word To Bank — Wike

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has questioned the credibility of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, accusing him of repeatedly altering his place on political points.

Wike made the remarks on Tuesday on the unveiling of the Rivers State Rainbow Coalition’s candidates, the place he criticised Atiku’s consistency and reliability.

Referring to his earlier political dealings with the previous vice-president, Wike mentioned, “I ran together with him in the 2022 presidential primaries. I employed him in 2019. I was one of the biggest sponsors for that presidential election.”

He added, “He’s not a man that you can go to the bank with his word.”

Wike accused Atiku of often altering his stance, saying, “He tells you one thing in the morning, he tells you another thing in the afternoon. He tells you something in the evening, the next morning he tells you a different thing.”

Questioning Atiku’s suitability as a political chief to observe, Wike requested the viewers, “Is he the man you follow?”
