Wike: If you write a letter to the Assembly, won't you wait for a response? That's why I tell you sincerely, he is playing to the gallery. He has carried television people now let them say he went to the Assembly, you know it's wrong,

Can President now come and go to the National Assembly? Who does that?

Interviewer: Is that the best approach in locking him out of the Assembly?

Wike: It's a residence. He brought the Assembly Complex down. Assembly now sit in their residence. They have children and will tell them Governor is coming today and there will be lot of Security. You cannot just go and say "Open the Gate", that's nonsense, rubbish.

dettolgel:
Wike she allow the governor to do his job.

Auspicious2018:
Sorry ooo... Why do some people from a particular tribe want Fubara out so badly even when it’s obvious that the Rivers people love him...

Very sad folks.... Always very bitter when people stand against oppression. Smh

Mandate1:
Is Wike not a past governor and current minister of FCT? This man should rest and focus on his job.

Minister Wike clarifies that the initiative to build homes for judges is part of President Tinubu’s policy agenda, with his role focused on implementation. 

Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has refuted allegations that constructing homes for judges in Abuja is intended to influence them for political advantage.

He stated that building homes for judges is not his initiative, but rather part of the welfare packages created by President Bola Tinubu to support judicial independence.

During a media chat on Wednesday, Wike clarified that the project was approved in the 2024 budget and emphasized that he is simply fulfilling his duty by implementing it.

Wike explained that Tinubu stated, "Where are the judges living? They lack homes and are therefore vulnerable to political manipulation. As a president who aims to ensure the independence of the judiciary, I believe judges must have their own residences."

"I am not the President; I consider myself fortunate to be appointed as a minister in this administration, tasked with implementing his policies. The President expressed his vision clearly and asked us to explore how we can bring it to fruition."

"Mr. President approved and submitted in the 2024 budget to the National Assembly a proposal for constructing quarters for judges and justices. This initiative aims to relocate judges from rental properties, where they reside among potential criminals."

"A policy that deserves commendation for Mr. President has been included in the 2024 budget, approved by the National Assembly, and signed into law by him. What's the issue? I'm just responsible for implementing it; go ahead and carry out this implementation."

"The Federal Executive Council approved the contract and all related aspects; it's not my policy. How can you blame me for implementing something that has been sanctioned by the Federal Government?"

Wike maintained that there is nothing inappropriate, even if it was his initiative to build homes for judges. He further noted that he had undertaken a similar project when serving as the governor of Rivers State.

The former governor of Rivers State expressed disappointment over the criticism this project received, particularly from legal professionals, rather than receiving praise.
