: BREAKING!!! After Promising To Massively Rig And Deliver The Entire Federal Capital Territory For President Bola Tinubu In The January 16, 2027, Presidential Election, FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, Disappears From Abuja, As Major "Tinubu Must Go" Protest Takes Over The Entire Abuja Metropolis; The Protesters Vow To Continue The Protest, Until Their Cries Over The Current Hardship Is Heard
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, who had boasted that he would deliver the entire Federal Capital Territory, FCT, for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2027 Presidential election, is conspicuously missing, as a fresh wave of "Tinubu Must Go" protest hits Abuja.
The protest, which erupted in Nyanya, a major suburb and commuter gateway into the nation's capital city, saw thousands of demonstrators gather to express their frustration over the severe economic hardship, rising cost of living and insecurity, under the administration of President Tinubu.
Chanting slogans like: "Tinubu Must Go", and carrying placards, the protesters lamented that life has become unbearable for ordinary Nigerians under President Tinubu. Many decried the over 40 percent food inflation, petrol now selling above N1,450 per litre, and Electricity tariffs that have increased by over 300 percent.
Eyewitness videos circulating on the social media, show crowds blocking sections of the Nyanya-Mararaba road, with voices shouting that Nigerians are tired and can no longer cope.
This is coming barely days after similar protests rocked Lagos, on September 15, where Residents flooded the Streets, demanding change, and another demonstration on September 17, at the Supreme Court axis, in Abuja.
The development has raised questions about the whereabouts of the FCT Minister, who has been very vocal on political matters, but has remained silent as anger grows in the Territory he superintends.
Recall, that Wike had repeatedly vowed to deliver the FCT for President Tinubu, in the 2027 elections, despite the President losing Abuja, in 2023. With inflation biting harder and 34.8 million Nigerians now food insecure, many Abuja Residents say that the Minister's promise rings hollow.
As at Press time, Security Operatives were seen monitoring the protest in Nyanya, to prevent a breakdown of Law and Order, while the protesters vowed to continue, until their voices are heard.
