Wow WIKE is really a man , this is very commendable from the FCT minister
OlaleyeCast: Tension erupted in Abuja on Tuesday as armed soldiers barred FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and his entourage from gaining access to a disputed land in Gaduwa.
A viral video showed Wike confronting one of the soldiers who refused to let him and other top government officials in.
The incident occurred when the minister and FCTA officials tried to access the land but were blocked by armed soldiers. An aide of Wike reportedly told the officers: “This is unprofessional. You cannot be threatening a minister like this.”
Riskymarvelous: Wike is a land grabber tell him to stop all Those nonsensecity how can you be grabbing somebody land and be giving it to your sons from River state to FCT? The soldier suppose give him slap immediately
That outburst by WIKE is very commendable, arm force are not above the law.
malali: His outburst didn’t move a single needle. It was theatrics, not leadership. The shouting, chest-thumping, and near-chaos only risked his staff without shifting the chain of command an inch.
A smarter operator would have quietly taken the officer’s name, traced the order, and escalated it through the proper military hierarchy, clean, precise, and effective.
Real power doesn’t scream; it documents, escalates, and gets results.
malali: The circulating video captures Minister Wike verbally dressing down a commissioned Nigerian Army officer even after the officer calmly identified himself.
Wike repeatedly called him a fool, ordered him to get out, snapped shut up your mouth, labeled him a big fool, and even threatened to ensure the officer “leaves there.”
At one point, the officer’s own guard cautioned Wike not to touch him again.
Through it all, the officer maintained remarkable composure, holding his salute to discipline, addressing Wike as Sir, reaffirming that he is a commissioned officer, and stating that he carries integrity by the standards of his training.
There was a tense scuffle between the Officers fully armed men who were pushed and shoved by Wike's MOPOL and fully armed security. This could have degenerated into something bad but the Naval Officer showed restrain and he told his men to back down and not engage.
