I’m Not Igbo – Wike by adenigga(op): 5:42am On Jan 21, 2025
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Sunday declared that he is not an Igbo man.

He disclosed this during a media chat in Abuja on Sunday while responding to the emergence of John Azuta Mbata as the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

Azuta Mbata was elected as Ohanaeze’s President-General in Imo State a few weeks ago. His emergence followed the death of former President-General Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu and the completion of his tenure by Fidelis Nze Chukwu.

Speaking about Mbata, Wike declared: “I’m an Ikwerre man, not an Igbo man. I don’t have a problem with Igbo people.

“Azuta Mbata has the right to associate with anybody. I’m an unrepentant Ikwerre man, and I’m not a member of Ohanaeze.

“I will never, for anything, deny my identity just to be recognised.”

There’s no “self denial” just clarification of falsehoods that could become truth if not corrected now.

WIKE is a useless man and an expired politician, Igbos don't produce a demented drunk like him.
