Ex-Lawmaker Applauds Wike’s Bold Leadership in Abuja, Warns Against Clash With Soldiers
A former federal lawmaker has commended the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, for his outstanding performance in managing Abuja’s affairs, describing his leadership as effective, courageous, and commendable, according to a Daily Post report on Tuesday, November 11, 2025.
However, the former senator cautioned Wike against engaging in confrontations with members of the armed forces following a viral video that showed the minister in a heated exchange with soldiers over a disputed plot of land in Gaduwa District, Abuja.
“Wike is doing an excellent job in Abuja but should not be encouraged to do this kind of stunt with soldiers,” the ex-lawmaker, Senator Shehu Sani, wrote on his X handle.
The viral footage, which has stirred widespread reactions, captured Wike confronting military personnel who allegedly stopped Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) officials from performing their duties.
Reports suggest that the soldiers were acting on behalf of a former Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Awwal Zubairu Gambo (retd.), said to have connections to the contested Plot 1946.
Wike reportedly intervened after learning that the property had been occupied without proper documentation or approval from relevant authorities.
Reaffirming his administration’s commitment to upholding land use laws and fighting illegal property acquisitions, Wike stated that his actions were part of his broader policy to restore order, transparency, and accountability in the FCT’s land administration.
He further cautioned that public officials should resolve land disputes through dialogue and legal means, not by deploying armed security personnel to assert ownership.
“No one, regardless of status or former office, is above the law,” Wike reiterated.
