Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule says he is grateful he is not on a list of governors the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said are fighting him. Sule makes the remark during an interview on TVC on Tuesday, expressing relief that he is not included among the APC governors Wike references.
The statement comes amid a political dispute involving Wike and some APC governors within the wider context of the “Rainbow Coalition” ahead of the 2027 general elections. Wike, in a statement on Monday, named three APC governors he said are challenging him: Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma, Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, and Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun. Sule responds by arguing that Wike’s comments are connected to misunderstandings about the purpose of alliances and the Governors’ Forum message, and he also notes Wike’s role in the current administration.
