The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) minister, Barrister Nyesom Wike, Friday, November 24, declared that he would not contest against President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

Wike reiterated his commitment to the success of the Tinubu administration even as he explained that the quest for justice was the key reason he and the G5 group of governors supported the presidential ambition of Tinubu.

According to the minister, good character should never be compromised on the alter of politics.

Speaking with journalists in Abuja, he pointed out that having worked for the emergence of Tinubu as president, and having been made minister of the FCT, nothing would make him contest against the President in 2027.

“Tinubu made me the FCT minister and I won’t allow anybody to crumble our political structure. No!

“Tinubu made me minister; people don’t understand; I have character. What will happen in 2027? I stood and I said I’m not going to support injustice. I was threatened that they would do this and that to me. They tried many options including using major Generals,” he disclosed.
