The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has criticised the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, over his comments about its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and national unity.
The party accused Wike of lacking the moral authority to lecture Obi on national unity, insisting that the former Anambra State governor remained committed to Nigeria’s unity and development.
The NDC’s reaction followed Wike’s recent criticism of Obi, in which the minister questioned his approach to national issues and his capacity to provide leadership ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
The exchange has added to the growing political disagreements between supporters of President Bola Tinubu and opposition figures ahead of the 2027 general election.
