Wike Explains Why APC Didn’t Use Full Federal Power to Win Osun Election
Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) could have easily secured victory in the recent Osun State governorship election if the Federal Government had wielded its full political influence.
He commented on the election results, indicating that the APC did not fully utilize the advantages available to the ruling party at the federal level.
According to Wike, the Federal Government intentionally held back from deploying all its political resources during the election.
He suggested that the outcome might have been different if the APC had chosen to exercise its complete influence.
Wike’s comments are likely to provoke reactions in political circles, especially as parties and key stakeholders ramp up preparations for the 2027 general elections.
The Osun governorship election remains a focal point of political debate, with parties analyzing the factors behind the result and what it means for upcoming elections.
