Wike: I’ll use 20 days to show Obi, Nigerians Tinubu’s achievement in education sector

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, says he would use 20 days to show “social media president” and other Nigerians what the President Bola Tinubu administration has done in the educational sector in Abuja.

Wike recently described former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi as “social media president”.

Speaking during the commissioning of the newly Provided Engineering Infrastructure in Wuye District on Tuesday, October 21, 2025, the minister said: “We will take 20 days to show Nigerians, to show social media president what we have done in the education sector. So we are not going to rush.

“We are not going to rush, we are going to shock them with what we have done in the education sector, so that they will know that President Tinubu’s administration is not only concentrating on the infrastructure in the FCT, as regards to the network of roads, it is also focusing on the education sector.”

Wike: Obi’ll remain social media president, he plays politics with everything

Wike added that he would take a pause after 20 days of flagging off and commissioning projects.

“I have told the chief of staff, we are going to end our flag off, our commissioning, at least for today. 20 days is not two days, so we will take a rest and come back and focus on education,” Wike was quoted as saying in a statement issued by his spokesman, Lere Olayinka.
