Chief Dan Ulasi, a PDP chieftain, has criticized Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), for referring to Dr. Peter Odili and his spouse as "that man and that woman."
Ulasi stated in an interview with Kaakaki, an AIT show, that remarks of this nature are inappropriate for someone who aspires to be the nation's highest official. In a recent media interview, Wike disclosed to journalists that he and Odili do not get along well due to political disagreements.
But in response, Chief Dan Ulasi stated, “This kind of comment Wike makes occasionally is an unmitigated disaster. That’s not how a presidential candidate speaks. Somebody who is looking for the highest office in the land."
"His greatest crime is to publicly insult the father of politics in Rivers State, in the person of Dr. Peter Odili. And he calls him his father, his mentor, his everything."
"And because of the development with the person he put as governor, he refers to Odili as that man and to his wife, a retired Supreme Court judge, as that woman. And he is still in government, and nobody is talking about it.”
