Senate President Godswill Akpabio has come to the defense of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, describing him as a man of peace, despite the criticism surrounding his recent actions, including the demolition of structures in Abuja.

Speaking at a Public Lecture and Book Launch to celebrate Wike’s birthday in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Akpabio expressed disbelief that anyone would quarrel with the FCT minister, emphasizing Wike’s peaceful nature.

He recounted a conversation with a colleague, where he humorously remarked that Wike’s ability to quickly move past disagreements made him hard to stay mad at.

Akpabio joked that even if Wike raised his voice in frustration, he would forget it moments later and invite him over for lunch, highlighting the minister’s forgiving and amicable nature.

Wike, in his response, shrugged off the ongoing criticisms. He stated that as long as he knew what he was doing and had a clear plan, the opinions of critics did not bother him.

He reassured his supporters that he remained focused on achieving results for the public good, affirming his commitment to the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

He further added that while he was aware of the criticisms, he didn’t let them distract him, as he didn’t focus on what people said behind his back.

The former governor of Rivers State expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming support he had received from the crowd, dismissing the attacks as being orchestrated by his detractors.

Wike stressed that the best way to silence critics was to deliver results for the people and to prove that the president’s intentions were genuine.
