“Wike started selling ticket in motor park before he rose to become chairman of LGA” Ibrahim Modibbo

In a video shared by Arise TV, public affairs analyst Ibrahim Modibbo has provided insights into the political journey of former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike and his reported ambition to become the president of Nigeria in 2027.

According to Modibbo, Wike started from a humble background, selling tickets at a motor park, before steadily rising through the ranks of Nigerian politics. Modibbo detailed Wike’s political progression, stating that he first became the chairman of a local government, then served as a chief of staff, followed by a stint as a junior minister, and eventually attained the position of governor of Rivers State.

Now, Modibbo revealed, Wike holds the position of Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT Abuja), a role that he believes Wike is using as a springboard to fulfill his reported ambition of becoming the president in 2027.

Wike started as somebody selling ticket in the motor park, he rose to become chairman of a local government, he rose to become a chief of staff, a junior minister, a governor and now a full-fledged minister,” Modibbo said.
