Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has come under fire from Bala Mohammed, the governor of Bauchi State, who calls him a “transactional politician” whose allegiances change according to desire.

Mukhtar Gidado, Governor Mohammed’s Special Adviser for Media and Publicity, released a press statement on Thursday that included the attack in reaction to Wike’s criticism of Mohammed’s resistance to President Bola Tinubu’s Tax Reform Bills.

Gidado criticized Wike’s comments as “baseless” and “hypocritical,” charging the former governor of Rivers State of opportunism and political inconsistency.

Even though Wike accuses others of being dishonest, he has moved from being a self-described PDP stalwart to a staunch advocate of the APC government with ease.

He continues to identify as a PDP member while endorsing the reelection of the same APC government in 2027. The statement added, “Wike’s credibility and moral compass are seriously called into question by this chameleonic behavior.”

Additionally, Gidado maintained that Nigerians are not duped by Wike’s antics, accusing him of putting ambition above of ideals and weakening his party for personal benefit.

Wike’s political career, according to Gidado, was based on the PDP’s opportunities.

Now, however, he happily attacks the exact thing that raised him.

Gidado stated, “It is disheartening that a man who owes so much to a party that supported him throughout his political journey has chosen to be a willing tool in its denigration.”

Gidado responded by calling Wike’s assertion that he is not friends with Mohammed “irrelevant and puerile.”

He asserted that competence, vision, and the capacity to produce outcomes are the foundations of effective governance rather than personal friendships.

“If Wike ever had a moment of introspection and wanted to align himself with real leadership, Senator Bala Mohammed would be more than happy to accommodate him.

The statement ended, “Until then, Wike’s friendship—or lack thereof—has no bearing on Bauchi State’s development or the fortification of Nigeria’s democracy.”
