2027: Why Wike Is Not Supporting APC Beyond Presidency – Fayose

Former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has said the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT, Nyesom Wike, wants to keep the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the future, and it is the reason he is not supporting the All Progressives Congress (APC) beyond the Presidency in 2027.

Fayose’s remark comes after the Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) faulted the Rainbow Coalition in Rivers State.

The Rainbow Coalition, a fusion of the PDP and APC in Rivers State under Wike’s leadership, pledged support for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.

Naija News reports that Fayose, during Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday, said Wike never promised to support anybody beyond the 2027 presidential election.

He said, “Wike has not put it out there that he is supporting people beyond the Presidency because he still wants to keep the PDP.

“Wike has not hidden his position; neither have I hidden my position, neither has the governors too to support the President.

“Nobody in Nigeria will tell me that he doesn’t know Wike. You don’t know his style, you don’t know what he will do. In fact he will say what he will do before time.

“Let us talk about the presidential election, there is still time for the governorship election.”
