Hon. Rilwan recently accused Minister Nyesom Wike of frantically trying to win Bola Tinubu's complete trust, even if it meant coming out as petty and foolish. He made this statement in a recent tweet.
According to Rilwan, Wike may be acting in order to gain favor with Tinubu, even if it means sacrificing his own dignity.
Rilwan claims that Wike is acting in a hazardous and desperate manner. This harsh criticism suggests that Rilwan thinks Wike's political scheming is over the top and might be detrimental.
Political observers have taken notice of the tweet and are now keeping an eye out for any developments in this story.
Recently, there has been conjecture around Wike and Tinubu's connection. Some have said that Wike is attempting to identify himself with the president without political will to see things get better for Nigerians, who are already suffering.
Recently, Wike asked those lamenting that Nigerians are suffering to stop repeating the statement because it is no longer news. Many political observers see this statement from Wike as a sign of being insensitive to the consequences of the policies that the Tinubu-led administration has brought to Nigerians.
Hon. Rilwan, in reaction, tweeted, "Wike is just doing everything to earn Tinubu's full trust. He doesn't care, sounding so low and silly. Man is desperate and dangerous."
