Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike has threatened to use his powers to punish those opposing him.
Wike issued the threat while noting that politicians struggle for power because it is not “dashed” as a gift.
The Minister, who stated this during his thank you tour to Obiora/Akpor LGA of Rivers State on Sunday, noted that United States President, Donald Trump, captured his Venezuelan counterpart because of the power he had.
According to him, “Power is not dashed, you struggle for it. If Donald Trump doesn’t have power he would not go to Venezuela to pick up the President.
“Can a local government area that produced 5,000 votes challenge a local government that produces 40 percent of the votes? We will use our strength to punish people.”
Wike’s threat comes amid renewed hostilities between him and his successor, Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
