Wike vs Soldier War: I Am Not Your Mate, Igbokwe Fires Adeyanju

Post created on 12:00 pm

The confrontational clip on Tuesday between a naval officer, A.M. Yerima, and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has gained a lot of views from different perspectives, as some are supporting the FCT minister while others are against the act.

A constitutional law expert, Prof. Sebastine Hon, SAN, slammed the officer for his unruly behavior, stating that the minister has the right to access the land and calling on superiors to deal with and sanction the overzealous Yerima.

While the Ordinary President (Ahmed Musa), host of the human rights activist radio show Brekete Family, actively praised and raised the hands of Yerima for standing up to the FCT Minister and other administrative officials.

The Ordinary President condemned the acts of Wike and likened them to those of El-Rufai, which have been forgotten. He urged Wike to apologize to Officer Yerima, or President Tinubu should do it on his behalf.

At the other end, Joe Igbokwe and Deji Adeyanju’s exchange, words of war turned shady over a post on Igbokwe’s Facebook page, where he called for Yerima’s dismissal and those behind his authority.

However, Deji countered Igbokwe in another post, stating that he should stop hustling for appointments.

“Dear Joe Igbokwe, the appointment is finished already. Stop the hustling unless you want to replace this cameraman. Doing media aide work in old age is actually crazy. Old data boys,” Adeyanju wrote.

In retaliation, Igbokwe commented under Adeyanju’s post, “Deji, you do not know me, and I do not know you.”

“The only thing I know about you is that you are an emergency activist. I have been a well-made man for over 30 years.

“I started activism in the University of Nigeria Nsukka in the 80s. It is more than 40 years, Deji. Young man I am not looking for anything anymore from anybody. I am not your mate.
