PDP elder Chief Bode George says he plans to take Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike to court after Wike alleged that the Abuja house George occupies in the Maitama area was linked to funds from Rivers State. Wike made the claim during a media chat in Abuja, asking George to explain how the property was financed. Responding on TVC News, George rejected the allegation and said he intends to sue. He described the claim as baseless, adding that he bought the house rather than built it and that he did not acquire it using Rivers State money. George also said he is “taking him to court,” and expressed confidence about the case. Beyond the financial dispute, George raised personal remarks about Wike’s background, including an assertion that Wike was disowned by his biological father. The reports present the exchange as a direct public challenge and counterchallenge between the two PDP figures following Wike’s comments about the source of funds for George’s Abuja residence.
