The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has distanced himself from issues surrounding the All Progressives Congress, APC, screening of aspirants in Rivers State.
Wike insisted that he had no role in the party’s affairs or screening process, stressing that he is neither a “native doctor” nor a prophet.
He spoke during an inspection tour of ongoing infrastructure projects in Abuja on Monday.
“I’m not a member of the APC, so I don’t know what is happening in their screening.
“Even if they publish the results, why would I comment? I don’t know the reasons they have,” Wike said.
The FCT minister stressed that he would not speculate on matters outside his political constituency.
“What pertains to me is what I will talk about, not what does not concern me. I’m not a native doctor, neither am I a prophet,” he added.
This comes less than 24 hours after Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State stormed out and snubbed journalists after appearing before the APC screening committee for governors, chaired by the National Chairman of the party, Nentawe Yilwatda.
Fubara did not appear before the panel on Saturday, the final day designated for the screening of governors seeking the party’s nomination for a second term, as well as second-term governors seeking senatorial positions.
However, Yilwatda clarified that Fubara’s absence was not unusual, noting that governors engaged in official state duties were allowed to participate in the process on Sunday.
