Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has disclosed that he advised Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, to publicly reaffirm his support for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election.

Wike made the disclosure on Wednesday during his monthly media chat with selected journalists in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

The FCT minister said his advice to Adeleke came after the outcome of the Osun State governorship election, amid political discussions surrounding the governor’s relationship with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the 2027 presidential election.

According to Wike, he urged Adeleke to issue a public statement declaring his continued support for Tinubu’s bid to remain in office beyond 2027.

Wike also used the media chat to speak on his relationship with governors across the country and other political developments ahead of the 2027 general elections.
