The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has stated that he will not be influenced by public criticism or attempts at blackmail. He emphasized that his primary focus is on fulfilling the directives of President Bola Tinubu and adhering to his own principles.
Speaking on Monday at the inauguration of a road project in Mabushi District, Abuja, the Minister addressed his critics directly. He accused them of trying to pressure him into decisions that contradict his convictions and affirmed that such tactics would be unsuccessful.
Wike declared that he remains undeterred by online campaigns or negative name-calling, describing himself as having a "thick skin" developed from his experience in politics. He stated that expecting unanimous approval is unrealistic for any serious politician and that he is prepared for opposing viewpoints.
The Minister clarified that the only opinion that concerns him is that of President Tinubu. He expressed that he would only be worried if the President, who appointed him, was dissatisfied with his work. Wike concluded by sending a message to those he alleged were organizing criticism against him, suggesting their efforts would prove futile.
