What else is there to say?'Wike's praise comes despite the President's relatively low performance in the FCT during the 2023 presidential election, where he secured only 18.99% of the votes, losing to Labour Party's Peter Obi, who won the capital city with 58.85% of the votes.However, with the next presidential election scheduled for 2027 and taking Wike's statement into consideration, there seems to be an indication of a shift in political dynamics in the capital.
