Wike Is Second Most Prominent Politician After Tinubu But Failed To Carry Himself — Osinbajo’s Aide, Laolu Akande

Laolu Akande, a former aide to former Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has expressed his disappointment at the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Nyesom Wike.

Akande,who hailed Wike as the second most influential politician in Nigeria at the moment wondered why he cannot manage his own anointed governor.

He also regretted that Wike, the former Rivers Governor has failed to carry himself the way expected.

The political crisis rocking Rivers State took a new turn this week with the demolition of the State House of Assembly Complex and defection of 27 members of the assembly loyal to Wike, to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

“What is happening in Rivers State is very disappointing. Look, a lot of people had deep respect for the FCT Minister …you can easily see that Wike was the kind of guy that got it done and he got the reputation,” Akande said on Channels Television.

“He was called Mr. Project and all that. There’s quite a bit of political regard that you’ve to give to Wike. I think in this country today, after the President, Nyesom Wike is the most prominent politician.

“So, when somebody has attained that level of political relevance, it means you really have to carry yourself with a lot of grace, with a lot of measured management of the expectations around you.

“It is disappointing that the FCT Minister is not managing his own anointed governor and the responsibility is more on him than the governor. Wike is the senior partner in this matter and it is not good for him,” he added.
