An X user claims that FCT Minister Nyesom Wike is a moving train that can't be stopped, not even by the appointing authority President Bola Tinubu.

The X user, with the handle @jacobameh6, was responding to the recent demolition of some shanties in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), which has been heavily criticized by Nigerians.

"Make I hear say wike don spend 3 minutes watching your video before, that one na Obi akpo, not even Tinubu can stop him. Unless they remove him as minister of FCT," the user said in response to a video by VeryDarkMan.

Despite the public outcry, Wike has indicated that he won't be deterred by blackmail from civil society organizations and activists, calling for a cessation of demolition exercises in the city.

Wike made the comment after visiting the Ruga settlement alongside heads of security agencies in the FCT.

Earlier, some settlers, joined by human rights lawyer Deji Adeyanju and controversial social media critic Vincent Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan, protested the demolition carried out by the Department of Development Control on Friday, calling for President Bola Tinubu's intervention.

Wike, however, stated that the administration was only interested in protecting lives and property in the FCT and ensuring that Abuja was one of the best cities in the world.

“I must also say that no amount of blackmail, no amount of intimidation, no amount of abuses will deter us from doing our jobs. It doesn’t matter who they hire, whether they are called civil society or not, we are not interested in that. Our focus is on protecting lives and property and safeguarding Abuja to make it one of the best cities in the world,” he said.
