Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has stated that his political priority ahead of the 2027 general elections is to mobilize support for President Bola Tinubu's re-election, not to help politicians win in their respective states. In a statement issued on Tuesday by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, Wike reaffirmed his backing for Tinubu's second-term bid. He also said he never assured that the Peoples Democratic Party would refrain from fielding candidates for various elections. He advised politicians facing difficulties in their states to address them at the state level rather than linking them to the President's re-election campaign.
