Wike, ‘T-Pain’ playing politics with suffering of Nigerians – Atiku

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar accuses Nyesom Wike of prioritizing personal grievances over addressing Nigeria’s pressing issues

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has taken aim at Nyesom Wike, accusing the former Rivers State Governor of prioritizing personal grievances over the genuine issues affecting Nigerians. Atiku highlighted that Wike and his political allies are more focused on their self-interest than tackling the pressing concerns of the nation.

In a statement released on Saturday, Atiku’s Media Adviser, Paul Ibe, emphasized that Wike’s recent comments, where he urged Atiku to “pack and go home” after his electoral defeats, are not grounded in substance. According to Atiku, Wike is playing politics with Nigerians’ suffering, using distractions to avoid addressing real challenges like the economic hardship many face.

Atiku’s camp further stated that Wike’s focus appears to be more on managing domestic matters within Rivers State rather than fulfilling his role as Minister
