Ex-presidential Candidate Kachikwu Defends Wike Amidst Military Row by aguele(op): 3:31pm On Nov 14, 2025
Former African Democratic Congress (ADC) Presidential Candidate, Mr. Dumebi Kachikwu, today fiercely defended Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike, calling the public outrage against him "unrighteous righteous indignation" fueled by hatred for the Minister and the government.


In a press briefing held today in Abuja, Kachikwu recounted his own recent interaction with Minister Wike over a "stop work" order on a construction site, which Wike quickly reversed, saying, “I am sorry, but my people gave me a wrong information.” Kachikwu used this incident to illustrate what he sees as a targeted attack on Wike.


Kachikwu strongly condemned the backlash against the Minister regarding the recent confrontation with an FCTA official (Officer Yerima). He argued that the public outcry is driven by "hatred" for Wike, who is "perceived to be a bully and the President’s bulldog," rather than by the facts of the situation.


The former candidate also noted the double standard, pointing out the lack of similar public outrage when police officers are allegedly assaulted by the military.


Kachikwu concluded his address by lamenting the current state of affairs, stating, "I weep for Nigeria because we are becoming a nation of people fuelled by hate," and described the country as "this Animal Farm called Nigeria."

Leave them. They're only supporting the soldier because they hate Wike for being Tinubu's man. When the same military are used against them, they'll sing a different song.
