Isaac Fayose, a social media commentator and younger brother of former Ekiti State governor Ayo Fayose, has publicly challenged the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) if he believes he possesses significant political power.

Fayose’s remarks, made in a video circulating widely on social media and obtained by News Week Nigeria, included a strong assertion that Wike’s political clout would see an 80% reduction if he were to decamp to the ruling party. …CONTINUE READING

Fayose’s comments underscore an ongoing debate regarding Wike’s shifting political affiliations and the extent of his influence.

Wike, a former governor of Rivers State and an influential figure within the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) until his recent role with the APC-led government, has maintained a prominent stance in Nigerian politics.

However, Fayose insists that Wike’s perceived strength stems from federal support, suggesting that his appointment as FCT Minister is part of a broader strategy to destabilize opposition parties.

Fayose drew comparisons to former Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi, Wike’s one-time political rival, who left the PDP for the APC after facing challenges within his party. The implication is that Wike should consider a similar move if he feels discontented, with Fayose implying that such a defection would expose the true limits of Wike’s influence.
