Francis Nwifuru, governor of Ebonyi, has rejected claims that President Bola Tinubu handed over political control of Ebonyi state to Nyesom Wike, minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), ahead of the 2027 elections.
Speaking at a stakeholders’ rally in Abakaliki, organised in support of his re-election bid, Nwifuru said some allies of Wike in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have been peddling such claims across the state.
