You've been everywhere since 1999; dem born you born coalition? - Wike mocks Atiku


According to Punch News Paper, Nyesom Wike, the fiery Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has unleashed a blistering attack on former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, mocking his decades-long political journey and questioning the legitimacy of his latest coalition move.

The sensational jibe, delivered via a Pulse Nigeria post on X at 17:40 WAT on July 4, 2025, has ignited a firestorm of reactions across the nation, with the phrase "dem born you born coalition?" in Nigerian Pidgin becoming the talk of the town.

Wike’s scathing remarks, made during the commissioning of the Aguma Palace–Radio Nigeria–New Market Road in Gwagwalada, paint Atiku as a political nomad who has hopped from party to party since 1999, the year Nigeria’s Fourth Republic began.

The FCT Minister’s taunt comes on the heels of a seismic shift in Nigerian politics, with Atiku and Peter Obi recently joining the African Democratic Congress (ADC) after abandoning their former parties—a move detailed in a BBC report dated July 3, 2025.

This realignment, Wike argues, is nothing more than a desperate grab for power, echoing sentiments from a Daily Post Nigeria article covering his July 3 media chat, where he accused Atiku and David Mark of attempting to hijack the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The drama escalated as Wike, a former Rivers State governor known for his political tenacity, used the colorful Pidgin phrase to challenge Atiku’s coalition credentials, suggesting it lacks authenticity and grassroots support.

This linguistic flair, a nod to Nigeria’s rich cultural tapestry, amplifies the personal and regional rivalries that have simmered since 1999, fueled by power struggles within the PDP. Wike’s supporters hail the attack as a masterstroke, while Atiku’s camp remains defiant, with no immediate response as of 06:42 PM WAT today.

Adding fuel to the fire, Wike dismissed the opposition’s claims of underperformance by President Bola Tinubu’s administration, boasting of visible progress in the FCT and daring coalition leaders to showcase their own legacies.

😂🤣😂🤣😂

I think we can all agree that Atiku is the greatest political prostitute followed by Peter.

I will be writing the Guinness world record with FACTS, and on the need to include his name in the records book. No one in history has ever moved through political party’s in such manner since Earth was formed.

Even though Peter is trailing his record and has more potentials of slashing it due to age being on his side. We still must give it to Atiku First.

Men with no values. They will port to anywhere for power.

Even some footballers never change football club the way Atiku dey defect to different political parties.

Wike's fall will be very comical.
Let's wait and see.

Your beliefs are not generic cos it’s devoid of facts. This administration has been a blessing to many. If you feel it’s been a curse, look inwards.

Guy, you might be on to something here you know. Walahi !!! Thinking about it, there might actually be a case for Atiku holding the global record for the candidate who has contested presidential election using the highest number of different political Parties possible.

How many Politicians, globally, if one thinks about it, move Parties more than three times in comparison to the 5 or 6 platforms Atiku has used over decades now?

It’s a fact.

I am composing an email at the moment with dates and pictures to buttress the FACTS I will be submitting. I believe the necessary will be done by Guinness World Records and publicized.
