The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has described former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, as his younger brother.
Wike made the remark on Thursday during the flag-off ceremony for the construction of Collector Road CN2 (Emmanuel I. Ogala Street), connecting Arterial N16 (Yemi Osinbajo Way) to N20 (Wole Soyinka Way), including Road ILS 5 within Katampe District.
According to the minister:
“Fayose is my younger brother and I’m always happy anytime he comes to witness what his elder brother is doing.”
Both Wike and Fayose are prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and were part of the G-5 Integrity Group, a coalition of governors who opposed the presidential bid of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar during the 2023 general election.
The event further highlighted the minister continued influence within the party and his strong political relationship with fellow PDP stalwarts.
