Former Borno State Governor, Ali Modu Sheriff, has commended the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, for his performance in Abuja, saying his visible achievements outweigh concerns about his controversial behaviour.
Speaking in an interview with Channels Television on Monday, Sheriff said Wike’s work in transforming the capital city speaks for itself and sets him apart from other ministers in President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet.

“I’m not a fan of Wike. Wike’s character is that of a rascal, but you cannot take away from him that he has changed Abuja. From the time Abuja was created up to this moment, nobody has worked like him. So people like me will ignore his rascality because he is working. There are ministers that are not working but lying to Nigerians. It is not the president’s problem,” he stated.
Sheriff also took a swipe at underperforming ministers, accusing some of pretending to be productive while achieving little.
Meanwhile, the former PDP national acting chairman in 2016 also revealed that Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, is making moves to return to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
