FCT Minister Nyesom Wike Admits Mistake in Judgement, Seeks Forgiveness

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has publicly admitted to making a mistake in his judgement of Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State, seeking forgiveness from God and his political family in Rivers State.

Wike made this statement at a civic reception for Chief George Thompson Sekibo in Ogu-Bolo, where he acknowledged his fallibility as a human being and vowed to correct the mistake at the appropriate time.

He stated, “I want to say this clearly: in life, we make mistakes. I have made a mistake. I own it up and I say God forgive me.

I have said all of you forgive me. But we will correct it at the appropriate time. I am human. I am bound to make mistakes.

So forgive me for making a wrong judgment. So nobody should kill.”

Wike, known for his outspoken nature, also encouraged his supporters in the state assembly not to yield to intimidation, emphasizing that their positions as lawmakers were secure.

He expressed his strategy of making his detractors angry to provoke mistakes on their part.

He said, “Don’t be afraid. Nobody will remove you as lawmakers. Most of you don’t understand. This is our work. Our business is to make them fear. That is what I am doing.

We will make them angry every day and they will continue to make mistakes.”

The event celebrated Chief George Thompson Sekibo’s 36 years of public service, highlighting the importance of unity and forgiveness in political engagements.
