Why shouldn’t he? He knows he is the defacto president and gets away with whatever he wants so why are you guys surprised. One thing he doesn’t know is that military are not civilians.

Brendaniel:
When we tell some of you that the system needs to work for everybody regardless of status, religion or tribe, some of you think we don't know what we are saying....

If you as a human being see no wrong with what Tinubu is doing to Nigerians, what Sanwo Olu and the Yorubas are doing to the Igbos in Lagos, what MNK is going through, what the south east is going through from the northerners and the Yorubas, the brutality of the police and military guys on Nigerians, the illegal EFCC raids on peoples homes in the night whether yahoo boys or not and you are supporting Wike against that officer , then you are only deceiving yourself...


I've said this thing over and over, when you have a system that selects who to work for or against at different times based on whatever reason then that system can equally do the opposite for the same people.

Shebi Wike has always been oppressing people with state security and even killed youths in his state using the same soldiers in Obigbo, the system was in his favour to do injustice to others, now the same system could not fight for him at this point and worked against him.

That's why I laugh at those who are laughing at those and mocking those who they rig election against and call them losers or those who laugh at those unjustly arrested for trying to do right thing, tomorrow do they know what that same system the are supporting may do to them?

Your brother Odinkalu has laid the template of abuse ,as seen in his virtupiration- which is just absolute bitterness,hate- for elections loss since 2023.
Una well done o!

Kobicove:
This is not a matter that can just be waved off, how it is resolved will determine rules of engagement between civilians and military officers going forward.

The government needs to make it clear that no citizen is above the law whether civilian or military personnel!

Dey play! You don't even know your country. This place is lawless. How it's resolved will change nothing.

Kobicove:
That is the only mistake Wike made in this matter

Mistake! There is no mistake, Wike has no regards for anybody.
He can talk down and insult anybody that is not in his good book, even people like Peter Odili, Amaechi, Jonathan, Mama Peace and host of others who had help his political career.
He was bragging that TY Danjuma and Obasanjo beg him for their own land too.
He behaves like an Emperor and the second in command after Tinubu.

What did Odinkalu do that others even Matawalle has not done even worse?

Why single him out if it is not out hatred and bitterness towards him and his tribe?

It’s obvious this Matawalle has some issues with Wike. Even though Wike should have respected his age when dealing with the young boy, but the way this Shatawale or what’s his name is using the avenue to constantly get at Wike is becoming suspicious.

Exactly the point. I don’t rate Wike even one bit but in this matter, both the naval guy and his boss were wrong and failure to address this will set a bad precedent that the military can get away with whatever they want through the use of intimidation. It’s only in Nigeria that people think they can do anything and get away with it once they are highly placed. Where was the General’s voice when this same Wike was demolishing other people’s homes? Why was there no public outcry from Nigerians like we are seeing now? Oh, is it because it’s now affecting a rich and influential person?
Away from that and since this is not military regime, no soldier or General has the power to stop a serving Federal Minister from carrying out his duties and if you must stop him, doing so using force and intimidation because you are one retired General is not acceptable, Sambo should use the right channels.

SixSeven:
Respect begets respect. It is earned.

The Minister, if he had respect for the rule of law, had no business at the site.

He didn't respect his office.

He didn't respect his delegation of authority to let his directors handle this administrative issue.

He didn't respect his security (I saw him pushing them aside when their first duty is to protect him. He wanted to teach them their job. Even Trump respects the security around him).

He did not respect the officers who put their lives on the line to serve Nigerians.

He didn't respect his legal profession.

He didn't respect the media. He still went on to do a press conference afterwards and his aide, Olayinka called the officer a maiguard. The owner of the land, have you heard him talk? No. The President, have you heard him talk? No. Who took the media to the site? When you saw things escalating, should you endanger the lives of the media on that ground?

He didn't respect God. God that gave him his precious life and position but he wanted to waste it on a trivial fight. The same way KWAM 1 would have lost his head to a needless battle.

He didn't respect Nigeria because now that the video has gone viral, the World will think that's the way Nigerian ministers behave. That's why when you travel abroad, many of what you suffer from is not just the green passport, it's what your government officials do, how they do what they do and their behaviour reflects on every Nigerian, whether you like it or not.

He didn't respect his family, why would daddy be fighting and exchanging words in public like this? What will the grandchildren think about this when they see it?

He didn't respect his children because I am very sure he cannot call his own kids f__l. Why will you call someone who puts his life on the line to defend Nigeria a four letter word?

He didn't respect Mr President because as his representative, considering how delicate his position is in Tinubu's cabinet, despite APC guys not wanting him there, wisdom should be profitable to direct that he should prove the president right that he has sound tactical judgment and political acumen, not drawing the President's image to needless abegro fights.

I'm very sure his security details would have advised him, in which he refused.

Yet some people talking about following law, did Wike follow law and protocols

This Man hasn't said anything about killer bandits

How much longer will this incompetent military bosses keep giving excuses for a very glaring case of military disregard for constituted authority and civil disobedience?

The military shouldn't be there in the first place. There's no law or statue or policy that empowers military to intervene in civil matters or criminals matters.

The minister has every power , authority and right to be there. So let these ignorant, incompetent and killers of Nigeria continue fooling themselves with press statement to make the military score nonexistent point in this matter

Granted, Minister Wike goofed by insulting the young man and trying to intimidate an officer, what worry me most is that Nigerians are busy celebrating this young man like he is a hero for standing up to the minister while his mates are busy putting their lives on the line combatting Boko Haram and bandits on a daily basis. Am bothered, that Nigerians don't see anything wrong with a commissioned officer of the Nigeria Navy serving as a 'Mai-guard' in a private property, are we so shallow! Don't even get me started on the legal issues bothering on the property. The joke may be on Wike today, but remember, 'what goes around comes around' , since military men have now become 'untouchables' in our society, don't come tomorrow complaining of injustice in the hands of the military.

Racoon:
A clear case of absolute unbridled power corrupts absolutely.

where is the unbridled power coming from, the military on illegal assignment, who chased fcta staff away from carrying out their lawful duties or wike who decided to go and verify the on the field report of his staff?

israelmao:
Agbero blood in Wike couldn't let him maintain his cool.Tbe young man was even more refined iand polite in his responses.

Yes you're right..
Wike have no decorum he behaves like thugs.

Fiscus105:

He doesn't respect his life. There are things security officers know that he does not. Their number one job is to protect him but when he refuses to be protected, then he may as well take whatever he sees. I watched the video closely, the DSS was guarding him, he was pushing the man's hand to stay behind. In fact, his security detail should never have allowed him get to that kind of dangerous situation in the first place. Didn't President Tinubu say he slept well for canceling the Independence Day parade? That is the CC of the Armed Forces taking advice but here is almighty Wike that does not have the same power. Hmmmm

It is better to respect your security detail if you want to preserve your life. There is security intelligence and he was not trained to be one. He should rest please. Nobody is a know it all.

The many troubles of brother Wike. 🤣🤣

When it’s not fubara and members of his family whom he can bark at and order around lol.

How are yorubas treating igbos in Lagos ...

WHY not show us how Igbos are treating yorubas, hausas, in the East so we can learn better

emmabest2000:
Because he thought that everyone is Fubara

He absolutely disgrace himself in the public

That little soldier deserves award

Mehn!!!

Only God knows what he did to fubara off camera.

I really pity those that work and leave with him.

Nice thoughts.

As a woman, I was wondering what his wife and children be thinking or going through now. It's so sad.

Una no dey tire for this matter shuu?

Kobicove:
Don't you people follow the news at all?

Directors working under Wike had already gone to the site to conduct an inspection but the soldiers chased them away.

That was the reason why Wike went himself with a team of policemen.

What is preventing the owner of the land from presenting copies of his government allocation and approval documents instead of using military braggadocio?!

So the documents were buried in that site right?

Wike should just be thanking his stars that it didn't degenerate to gun duel and bloodbath, by now, even if he was Tinubu's long lost father from Iragbiji, tinubu would have suspended him indefinitely. Let's all thank God it didn't degenerate.

The Truth is unfolding. Why is it that the Fulanis are rallying round the young man despite being on illegal duty?
Mattawalle did not see anything wrong in the action of the young officer against a serving minister.
Illegal duty is a purnishable offence in the military.

SlavaUkraini:
Very correct....

But Wike is not the only guilty Party here...

That Retired Naval Officer is also guilty here...

Instead of sending soldiers to intimidate FCTA officials, he should have contacted Wike one on one and the issue would be resolved.

People that now want to engage in illegal land development in the FCT would now be looking for soldiers to guard the land with the mindset that nothing will happen...

Nigeria cannot progress that way...

Wike that has become notorious for revoking and reallocating to his family and friends immediately. If he reach your turn, allow him to use ogogoro voice and open eye collect your land.

NOETHNICITY:
These northerners are something else. We know you are not happy that Wike a southerner is minister of the FCT

And therefore, the person they want to roast should aid his roasters by smearing himself with palm oil?? 😂🤣

AMI3:
Whatever finding may come out Wike goofed.
He should have not gone there in the first place.
He should have got to know the real owner of the land.
By so doing he could have approached the man and discuss big man to big man not for him to go and start exchanging words with the officer

This same uniform men that he talking down on are the one that they the politicians always use to intimidate common man during the election

Only God knows how Wike dreamed of coveting that property so badly that made him decide to take law into his own hands. Must be very juicy land that made his noodles stretch merely thinking about it. 😆

He should thank God, the situation wasn't led to bloodbath that day, maybe he would have been in the mogue by now, yet ignorant online mobs talking constitution.

Even his boss, dodged Almighty independence parade, because of security issues.

That is the only thing your brain can fathom from that incident? Pity.

Influence of too much ogogoro
That's the results

Wike fall go loud pass Nagasaki bomb

so many people hate the man for everything he is... including flaunting stolen wealth, destroying peoples livelihood and years of investments in Abuja, using intimidation on people's property and allocating those properties to his children, stealing lands in Abuja, fighting Fubara, pride and arrogance, diarrhoea speeches.
