G5 Governors: Wike Wins Big As Ikpeazu, Ortom Lose Out

Former Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike’s decision to work against the interests of his political party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has paid off after President Bola Tinubu named him the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

The FCT is unofficially Nigeria’s 37th state and Wike could now be regarded as the governor of the nation’s capital city.
