Ireti Kingibe is an illeterate. She is not going to return to the Senate – Wike

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has again vowed that the senator representing the FCT, Ireti Kingibe, will never return to the Senate in 2027.

A while ago, Kingibe who has been at loggerheads with Wike, accused him of obtaining loans without the approval of the National Assembly, a claim the minister rejected. 

While speaking to newsmen after inspecting projects in the FCT in Tuesday, September 22, Wike said 

“She is an illiterate, with all due respect, and that is why she is not going back to the Senate. She has nothing to offer to the people of the FCT. There is no way you can go and take a loan without the approval of the National Assembly. Anyone take a loan, you will include it in the budget; this aspect of the budget, the government is going to collect loan.

I don’t want to comment about her. When the time is right, let her pack her bags out, the people have made their choice by agreeing to support President Tinubu, and then will support Philip Aduda for Senate. So, let us not waste our time reacting to inferiors who failed in all ramifications. I don’t want to react to it, I am above that,” he said.
