I’m too strong – Wike fires back at Gov Bala Mohammed over Bauchi crisis

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike has responded to Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State over his comment.

Mohammed had accused Wike of being behind the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, terrorism financing charge against his commissioner of finance.

Reacting, Wike said Mohammed should not fight if he has no powers to fight.

He spoke in Abua-Odual during his thank you visit to local government areas of the state on Friday.

According to Wike: “I watched what Governor Bala said. That all the problems he’s having, that I’m the one behind it, because I said I’ll put fire in his state. So, if you know I have such power, why are you fighting?

“Bala came to my state to impose party leaders. I told him to be careful or else, he’ll see crises. Today, he doesn’t have a party to bring his successor, and this is what I warned them. If you know you don’t have the strength to fight, why not go and rest.

“Now, EFCC is chasing him, and he’s saying it’s me. What’s my business? If your state is clean, go there and clear yourself.

“Anybody that has stroke, it’s Wike. The ones with headache, it’s Wike. The ones in Sokoto, Wike. You’re in Taraba, Wike, you’re in Lagos, Wike, you’re in Bauchi, Wike. Leave this Wike. He’s too strong.”
