Earlier Today a tense confrontation broke out in Abuja on Tuesday when Lt Yarima and his colleagues stopped the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, and officials of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) from gaining access to an estate land in the FCT.
The Naval Officer officer who confronted minister Wike is Lt Yarima from kaduna state.
Lt AM Yerima a Naval Officer, Publicly available information on Lt. A.M. Yarima is limited, as the incident is very recent (happening just hours ago). He is a lieutenant in the Nigerian Navy, described in reports and social media as a principled, fearless officer with integrity. Some posts claim he hails from Kaduna State
In a video obtained, the soldiers on guard duty at the disputed site blocked the minister’s convoy, leading to a heated verbal exchange between Wike and one of the officers.
Visibly angry, Wike accused the soldier of obstructing government officials from performing their duties, while the soldier insisted he was acting under lawful orders.
In the video, Wike yelled, “Because you’re an officer, nobody does that (nobody acquires land illegally).”
Soldier: “Sir, we did not carry any land.”
Wike: “The man took this and we will not allow that just because he is the Chief of Army Staff.”
The confrontation escalated when the soldier defended his conduct, stating that all actions taken on the land were legitimate.
Soldier: “Sir, everything was acquired legally. Sir, you get the point.”
Wike: “Will you stop that?”
Soldier: “Sir, I’m an officer, I have integrity.”
Wike: “Shut up!”
Soldier: “Sir, I will not shut up. Sir, I won’t shut up. Sir, you can’t shut me up.”
The visibly enraged minister then called the soldier “a big fool,” but the officer stood his ground.
Wike: “You’re a big fool.”
Soldier: “I’m not a fool, sir. I am acting on an order.”
The soldier’s defiance shocked onlookers as both sides refused to back down, creating a tense standoff that drew attention from nearby residents and FCTA officials.
The altercation is the latest in a series of confrontations linked to land ownership disputes and demolition exercises in the Federal Capital Territory under Wike’s leadership.
