Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has stirred major controversy after publicly raining heavy curses on politicians he accused of standing with people who betrayed him.
Wike made the remarks on Saturday in Port Harcourt while commissioning the Rivers State office of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors.
Visibly angry, the former Rivers governor warned that senators, House of Representatives members, governors, and ministers who align themselves with what he described as betrayal would eventually taste the same fate.
According to him, betrayal is a seed — and anyone who plants it will surely reap it.
“Whether you are a senator, a House of Reps member, a minister or a governor, if you support betrayal, betrayal will follow you everywhere,” Wike declared.
He went further, issuing a chilling warning that such politicians would one day be betrayed so badly that they would be left speechless and helpless.
“The day you are betrayed, you won’t even have the mouth to talk. You will collapse and go, and they will announce that so-so person has died,” he said.
Wike insisted that no political status offers immunity from consequences, stressing that betrayal has a way of coming back full circle.
He also targeted second-term governors and those attempting to impose successors, warning that anyone backing betrayal in that process would not survive it politically.
“Whatever you plant, you will reap. Since you are planting betrayal, betrayal will be your portion,” he concluded.
The remarks have since sparked intense reactions online, with many Nigerians divided over Wike’s blunt language and the deep political rifts it exposes.
