Blackmail Won’t Change Me - FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike by Elfidel(op): 6:48pm On Sep 22, 2025
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has declared that he will not be swayed by bl@ckmail or public criticism, stressing that his only concern was pleasing God and to deliver on his mandate as directed by President Bola Tinubu.

While speaking at the flag-off of a road in Mabushi District, Abuja, on Monday, September 22, Wike lashed out at critics whom he accused of attempting to blackmail him into taking actions against his principles.

“So if you like, go and organise yourself, something I know is not correct, if you like, cry from morning till night, call me whatever name you want to call me, put my name on the internet, say anything you want to say—foul.

I am not one of those you will think that blackmail will change me. My skin is so thick, so strong. As a politician, you should know that these are things you will see, so why are you worried? No politician who is a serial politician will think that people will not say something against them. Then go and sleep, go and rest,” the minister declared.

He added that the only situation that could worry him would be if his principal, President Tinubu, expressed dissatisfaction with his performance. Continue Reading https://gistandmore.com/blackmail-wont-change-me-i-will-only-be-worried-if-my-appointor-is-not-satisfied-fct-minister-nyesom-wike/

If this were in China, Wike would be facing the firing squad, not talking about being blackmailed.

I guess this is his response to the allegation that he bought a $6 million house in the US.

Sir, this is not the right and the correct answer, go prove in the US that the property does ot belong to you or your children. Then you will know what will happen. You know that BAT is not in control over there!

Wike turned to a Pastor 😂😂😂😂

It's funny how people that think they are untouchable can suddenly become pets

Can Sowore please do this same thing to Tinubu?
I want to check something first 🥲



But what if Wike is actually being blackmailedhuh?? 😳

If this were China...

99% of the politicians in Nigeria would have or be facing the firing squad.

I don't want to say 100% but trying to find any one of them that is clean is like looking for a pin in a stack of hay!

You’ve been one of the most exceptional Federal Minister since 1999. Your performance as FCT Minister in barely two years in office has already surpassed the performance of all the former FCT Ministers from 1999 combined. The good people of FCT are very happy with what you are doing in the FCT.

Those hating on you are only doing so for two reasons. Firstly, they can’t beat your political sagacity and secondly, they can’t beat your administrative competence. You were there darling when you were in PDP. You were not corrupt when Peter Obi was running after you to get your endorsement. You simply became bad overnight when you pitched your tent with Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.


For us on this side, we shall continue to stand by you. Be rest assured no ant can scratch you. We don’t betray those who stand with us genuinely no matter the noise.

We are not surprised. Anybody can get away with anything as long as they support Tinubu. You will flip the switch and brand him the devil as soon as he goes against Tinubu, which is only a matter of time.

Compared to Atiku, Dr. Beta Edu is a very decent, honest and intelligent public servant. Atiku Abubakar is on record as the most wicked and corrupt person to ever serve in a high profile office in Nigeria. He was indicted by the US Senate and his collaborator, a US Congress member was jailed in the US over the iGate scandal.

You think we’ve forgotten about the privatization scandal, the Sagem scandal, PTDF scandal, IGate scandal, COJA scandal, and several murder allegations in which Atiku’s name featured prominently? If Atiku is a US citizen, he would still be in prison by now.

I suppose u should be age 16.... Do u realize wike is doing just road..?

Do u realize all the road he does are rural roads which long needed attention..

Do u realize the main Abuja center roads someone built them..., Do u realized many of the estates in Abuja someone. Mapped them Out and built many...

Okay wike. Now works better than el-rufai that organized Abuja...

Did u hear any stolen lands by el-rufai decades after leaving the post..?

Any time a politician start mentioning God water don pass garri.
If truly Wike believes there is God he won't be too full of himself and talk as if he sees tomorrow.
Men have come and gone and wike will not be the last.

As usual, deflect to Peter Obi or Atiku. Was Tinubu aware of all these when he supported Atiku to be President in 2007? Or when he partnered with him as a co-owner of intels. Or does anything go as long as it's Tinubu? We are only here to expose your hypocrisy and double standard to the world.

lol. You mean it’s now a crime for the FCT to give priority to rural roads? Are the people in rural and satellite communities of the FCT not human being? Dint they deserve government presence?


If all what Wike is doing is roads, we like it like that. What did Bala Mohammed and the other Mannequin that was there for 8 years under Buhari do?

U have to admit that ur statement "all fmr fct minister"is not true cus of el-rufai

For a fact those toads are very very important as they open up rural urban cooperation

But you know city roads are more complicated to build than rural...

A good for thought!!!

If this was China, almost all of the current Nigeria’s political class including your Tinubu, who have been milking and siphoning the entire common wealth of Lagosians for over two decades and counting would be in front of the firing squad for corruption. Let’s not cherry-pick. I don't worship politicians none of them are above criticism. You should try that sometime.

Apart From in the area of wicked demolition of buildings, Wike has outperformed El-Rufai in all aspects of governance in FCT.

And your accusation that he’s only doing rural roads is not true. He’s touching all aspect of FCT.

At least, you did not argue the fact that Peter Obi would have been hanged a long time ago if he tried what he did in Anambra in China.

What do you expect from people used to mediocrity. The barest minimum will seem like a lot. They thought Abuja began in 2023. Wike is building bus parks and overhead bridges with so much fanfare and media frenzy but he still hasn't done a quarter of what Elrufai did as Minister and neither will he. A city should be ran like a living thing or it will decay. Abuja is currently dirty with no plans to clean the city. How about public transportation? In shambles. Wike is busy going against the city masterplan by allocating parks and green areas to his families and cronies.

You clearly missed the plot entirely. My original comment wasn’t even about Tinubu, it was about Wike, which is what this entire thread is supposed to be addressing. But somehow, your fixation on Peter Obi led you to drag him into a conversation that had absolutely nothing to do with him. That says a lot.

Since you continue bringing up the “If this were China” angle, let’s apply it properly across the board. If Nigeria were China, most of the political class including your beloved Tinubu, a d..lórd, who has had a stranglehold on Lagos resources for over two decades would be facing the firing squad. Same goes for Wike, who now has free access to siphon Rivers State dry, thanks to Tinubu’s illegal imposition of a six months state of emergency in the state

Corruption doesn't magically become acceptable just because it’s your preferred politician doing it.

I don’t worship any of them that’s clearly your lane. Criticism isn't meant to be selective. Try applying it universally instead of responding to every valid point with this kind of hollow deflection.

Plenty words without substance. Who brought Tinubu into the discussion and you still turn around to accuse me of what you did. It’s hypocritical to name Wike as the only corrupt person in Nigeria that would have been killed in China. All I did was to help you expand the list. Good enough, you did not even bother to disagree. Before hand go touch Wike, China for don kpai Peter Obi a long time ago.
