Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress has called for the dismissal of the soldier who engaged in a heated exchange with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
The unidentified soldier had blocked Wike and officials of
the FCTA from accessing a portion of land in the FCT.
The officer, claiming he was acting on instructions, told
Wike that he would not be allowed on the property. Wike, however, questioned
his authority, leading to a heated confrontation.
Reacting on Facebook, Igbokwe questioned who was behind the
military officer in challenging the FCT Minister.
He wrote, “Who is this man in uniform? Of what meat is he
fed? Who is beating the drum for him? This is unacceptable? His uniform has to
be removed.”
Wike’s media aide, Lere Olayinka, alleged that a former
Chief of Naval Staff ordered the soldier to block his principal.

Calling for the dismiss of an officer acting under the instruction of his principal is as callous as calling for the for the removal of the eyes for blinking
