Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the People’s Democratic Republic, Senator Adolphus Wabara, has criticized recent remarks made by the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, describing them as disgraceful and unbecoming of a public figure.
In a statement, Wabara expressed disappointment over Wike’s comments, accusing the minister of lacking decorum. He likened Wike’s behavior to “a broken water pipe without a tap” and argued that such conduct was not reflective of maturity or honor.
He said,“I would expect a man of his calibre and status to mind his language and words. He should be sure of his facts. But I don’t want to join issues with Wike and dignify him.
“Frankly, for a son to disown his father, his father must have wronged him terribly. Can Wike please tell the world what it is I did wrong to him?
“Talking about corruption, Nigerians know those who are corrupt, and I can proudly say and beat my chest that I’m not one of them. I, Adolphus Wabara, am not corrupt! I won’t be joining issues with people who have no respect for elders.”
The statement was in response to Wike’s remark, where he said he would have disowned Wabara if the former Senate President were his father.
