Wike likely to land in serious trouble with Tinubu – Shehu Sani

Popular socio-political commentator,Shehu Sani on Tuesday, said there is high chance that Nyesom Wike, the  newly-inaugurated Minister of Federal Capital Territory, FCT, will get himself into “serious political trouble” with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

He said while there is no doubt about Wike’s capability to deliver on his job, there is also tendency that he may land in trouble with the president “by his utterances or actions.”

The former Kaduna Central Senator said Wike must learn how to “walk in a minefield or be blown by it.”

On his Twitter handle, Sani wrote, “The capacity and competence of the new FCT minister to deliver is without doubt.The possibility of getting himself and the President into serious political trouble by his utterances or actions is also without doubt.He will have to learn to walk in a minefield or be blown by it.”

Recall that Wike, while assuming office as FCT Minister on Monday, vowed to “step on toes” by demolishing all illegal structures in the FCT regardless of how highly-placed the owners are.

He also vowed to stop open grazing in Abuja.
