Wike Defends Tinubu’s Reforms, Dismisses Atiku and Obi Ahead of 2027
FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has defended President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms, saying the administration inherited deep economic problems and had to take difficult decisions, including removing the petrol subsidy. Wike acknowledged the hardship Nigerians have faced but argued that the country’s challenges built up over many years and cannot be solved quickly. He urged Nigerians to give the administration more time to deliver its economic agenda. The minister also criticised Peter Obi, accusing him of sentiment-driven politics, and dismissed Atiku Abubakar’s prospects of becoming president. His comments add to the growing debate over alliances, economic hardship and opposition strength ahead of the 2027 elections.
