The Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Minister, Nyesom Wike, has revealed what he claimed was the reason he did not contest for the Senate after completing his second term as governor of Rivers State.
Speaking at the commissioning of a pedestrian bridge at the Dunamis International Gospel Centre in Abuja on Friday, Wike disclosed that he turned down the opportunity to become a lawmaker because the position would limit his freedom to express his opinions.
He said, “Many governors today, when they are done, they want to go to the National Assembly, but I said that I won’t go. They asked me why, and I said I would be prevented from speaking my mind.
