Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, Nyesom Wike, has taken a swipe at the Interim National Secretary of the African Democratic Congress ADC, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, describing him as a failed Minister of Interior who left Nigerians stranded in obtaining international passports during his tenure.
Speaking during a thanksgiving service in Abuja on Sunday at the Saint James Anglican Church, Asokoro, to mark the successful commissioning of 16 projects in the FCT, Wike contrasted Aregbesolas performance with that of his successor, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo.
According to him, You were Minister of Interior and to get an international passport, Nigerians had to wait for days, weeks, and months. But look at a young man under this administration within hours, passports are now issued. Yet, you talk about Nigerians being angry. They are angry because of your failure.
Wike did not spare other prominent opposition figures linked with the ADC, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Senate President David Mark.
