Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has fired back at Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara over his ‘barking dog’ comment .
Fubara had said “dogs that don’t understand what’s going on in the house bark”, expressing confidence in his re-election bid during a New Year banquet in Port Harcourt.
In response, Wike, while addressing the people of Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni (ONELGA) on Friday, said the barking dog made Fubara the Governor when Rivers people did not know him.
He also mocked those backing Fubara, stressing that they have no political advantage.
He said, “This dog that’s barking now barked, even when Rivers people didn’t know who the person was and the dog that barked made the person to be Governor when others ran away and he’s not afraid that the same dog now is barking. I wish him goodluck.
“We have decided to for Asiwaju Tinubu. There’s no discussion about that, but there’s one we must take a decision. We won’t make the mistake we made last time. We would correct the mistake.
“I heard him say those who worked with Atiku are back. They couldn’t give Atiku 10%. So, what is the political advantage. I won’t call their names, but you all know them”.
