The reported decision to assign former Rivers State Governor and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, a key role in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's 2027 presidential campaign has sparked discussions about political influence, party loyalty, and the structure of the ruling party's campaign machinery.

Wike is expected to coordinate the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign structure in Rivers State and the Federal Capital Territory.

The reported arrangement comes as political actors prepare for the 2027 general election and as questions continue to surround Wike's relationship with the Peoples Democratic Party and his alignment with President Tinubu.

The development has drawn attention to the role of political figures who operate across party lines, particularly when their influence extends beyond the formal structure of the party supporting the presidential candidate.

Abati and Rufai Examine the Political Implications

On Arise TV's Morning Show, Reuben Abati and Rufai Oseni's discussion of the reported development provides an opportunity to examine the implications of Wike's proposed role in the presidential campaign.

Someone has been held tightly on the fragile hairy balls. Mr. W seems to pull frantically and violently at the dangling ball to get whatever he wants from them.

Otherwise, how is a non-party member of the opposition leading your campaign in his state?

Could there be a very damning set of skeletons in a cupboard that Mr. W gotten a key to?

The cap fits perfectly!

Wike’s political structure in Rivers state will deliver the state for our Great party-APC

He has everything it takes to get us 85% of state votes.

Well, there is always a limit to anarchy, lawlessness and tyranny.

Guess it is the same Rivers state Nyesom Wike rigged for the APC in 2023? Keep on supporting evil. It always have a way of consuming those who ocastrate it.

It’s always rigged when you lose, but when others win, it is rigged!

We are familiar with the play!

Nothing but rigging....that's the only thing the Whisky man knows best

The Nigerian press is the biggest threat Nigeria faces at the moment. It is no more a secret that Wike pays each so called journalist that attend these so called interviews 5 million naira for each televised session. We see AIT, Channels, Arise, TVC and NTA always sending the cheap hacks they call press men to go for these interviews.

Wike is minister of the FCT. Why is he granting interviews on matters beyond the scope of his office? Why has the lazy and useless Nigerian press not hounded the president for the dearth of interviews from his office? There are simply no journalists worth thier salt operating in the Nigerian space anymore outside FIJ and maybe Premium Times.

But I believe the media should b fair to Wike...he has never for once denied his royalty to d president since day one.....leading tinubus campaign should b d right thing to do

The confusion that will eventually destroy APC is second to none and will happen sooner than expected. If Tinubu looses the presidential re-election, it becomes the catalyst that will speed up the inevitable disintegration of the APC. The political party has outgrown sustainability. It wasn't built to last.

For me the APC didn't do well. How can they restrict Wike to only 2 state.
He supposed to be the head of APC in all states because come to think of it, without Wike in Osun APC lost. You can imagine if he is not there in all states.

Only one party is at the table and that’s the great APC.

Anywhere the table turns, it still will be ours!

That's even too small na.

They should just remove Tinubu and make him president.

Loyalty to the president is not the issue here. There are many people who are loyal to Tinubu and did more than Wike in 2023.

The issue here is how Tinubu allows Wike to be working against APC interest across the States.

Why are you afraid?

Let him head APC campaign in all states first like you suggested,,
Then they will just remove Tinubu and dash him President.

It is something he is already doing. Marketing a bad product is difficult.

Absolutely. He's clearly been working tirelessly to solidify his position.
