The President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, on Friday, described the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike as a performing minister who learnt from him.
Akpabio recalled how Wike once visited Akwa Ibom State while
he was governor and saw the good works he was doing and vowed to be a performer
in any office he occupies.
The President of the Senate made the disclosure during the
commissioning of the access roads to the Renewed Hope cities and estates in
Karsana West District of the FCT to mark President Bola Tinubu’s third year in
office.
Representing Tinubu at the commissioning, Akpabio said hard
work is now embedded in Wike’s DNA.
According to Akpabio: “The once performing governor of
Rivers State who learnt from me, the minister visited my state once when i was
a governor and then he was a minister, he entered the under drainage system, he
came out with handkerchief in his hand, saying what is this?
“He said if I ever had the opportunity to be in Rivers
State, I would perform miracles, so God gave you the opportunity and you
performed excellently well.
“In fact I got so worried at a time that I came to you and
pleaded with you to become governor and not to surpass what I did, so take it
easy. If Jesus Christ had done all the work for God, there would be no need for
the Pope, so another governor would come, don’t do this just because you saw me
working so hard.
“But now it has become your DNA, wherever you go to you show
your hand and God will bless you.”
