I Am An Igbo Man - Nyesom Wike by LagosOrigin(op): 9:11am On Oct 03, 2025
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has warned that those who benefited from past government contracts may soon begin to attack him because of the new way his administration is handling projects in Abuja.

In a video shared by TVC News, Wike made this known while launching a hybrid solar lighting project in the city. He explained that unlike in the past, when contractors would use “maintenance” as an excuse to collect money without doing proper work, the new project will be managed directly by the company responsible for it. This, according to him, will block opportunities for misuse of funds.

The minister noted that because of this decision, some people will become angry and try to discredit his efforts. He said critics may use ethnicity and religion to spread false stories against him and his team. He added that some may claim he is being favoured because of his ethnic background or accuse him of religious bias.

Wike insisted that such attempts would not distract his administration from delivering on its responsibilities. He said those who are upset are simply used to benefiting from loopholes in the system and are unhappy to see things done differently.

He emphasized that his office has made a firm decision to ensure transparency and efficiency in projects under his watch.

In his words, "Ethnicity will come in. 'They did it because I'm the Igbo man who is supplying all the cables, I'm the Igbo man who is supplying the generators.' And they will send people to social media, radio, and begin to lambast us."

We don't speak like that. He has the right to choose an identity for himself.
Just as ndigbo have the right to associate with him or avoid him.

Get my point.
Nobody has the right to declare who is igbo or not. Wike can call himself igbo. But he cannot force igbo to associate or accept him.

I think there's a comprehension problem here. It's good to understand something well enough before creating a thread on it.

Actually you missunderstood him.
He is saying he will be attacked and lambasted by Igbo people who would have benefitted from the maintenance or repair work.

WIKE'S MESSAGE IS VERY DIRECT AND HIS CHOICE OF USING IGBO AND NOT ANY OTHER TRIBE TO BUTRRESS HIS POINT ABOUT TRIBALISM IS BECAUSE IGBOS ARE MOST FOND OF PLAYING THE ETHNIC VICTIMIZATION CARD.

Haa! You lack the comprehension of his message. He was actually mocking Igbos that his new approach of giving maintenance service to the same contractor that does the project will affect. His point of emphasis of mocking Igbos is that if he no longer gives out maintenance contract separate to outsiders or contractor that was not original contractor that handle the project. Some Igbo people will come and blame him that he is no longer giving out contract maybe because "I am Igbo that supply cable" or is it because "I am Igbos that supply generator" that he stopped giving out contract out again? He used that to spite Igbos that are usually emotionally blame everything on ethnic or religion line. He was not saying he was Igbos, he was only warning emotional species Igbos not to start blackmail him if he no longer give separate contract as "maintenance" to outsiders anymore. Any contractor that wins initial contract will continue to provide maintainance for it. Unfortunately, as Wike logically described Igbos as emotional species, you yourself has demonstrated that he was right by quickly said he called himself Igbos which is not true

Wike is not Igbo and can never be, God forbid bad thing. His name is Nyesom Wike, not Chisom Nwike. Whenever they have issues at the national stage, they start attaching themselves to Igbo ancestry. It will not work this time. Let him go and face Sowore and his team.
