The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike made statements that implied the territory would turn against anyone who opposed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has denounced. Wike’s declaration of “war” against anti-Tinubu candidates was deemed dangerous and provocative by the coalition party. ADC National Publicity Secretary Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi reiterated that the Nigerian people, not President Bola Ahmed Tinubu or any minister, will decide the outcome of the February 2026 elections, warning that such rhetoric could exacerbate political tensions and threaten democratic stability.
