Secondus to Wike: ‘You Didn’t Fall from Heaven, We Made You’

Former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, has taken a swipe at the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, accusing him of acting as though he ascended to power without the help of others.

Speaking during the inauguration of the 14km Bori internal roads in Rivers State on Tuesday, Secondus, who accompanied Rivers State Governor Sim Fubara, emphasized that Wike’s political ascension was the result of a collective effort involving God and key political leaders, including himself.

Secondus’ Remarks

Secondus reflected on Wike’s political journey, stating:
“Those who are shouting in Abuja, how were they made? It was God. Some of us, and the leaders seated here today, made it possible. God first, because we do not want to take God’s glory.

“I can recall during my thanksgiving service, immediately after I was made national chairman, he said it clearly, outside God, it was my humble self and other leaders who made it possible.

“Today, when he speaks, either in Abuja or here, it appears as if he fell from heaven.”

Praise for Governor Fubara

Secondus also heaped praise on Governor Sim Fubara, describing him as a humble leader with deep respect for elders. He commended Fubara’s leadership style, particularly his ability to navigate challenges with poise and faith.

“I can tell you, the test of a leader is when you find yourself in confusion and frustration, yet come out of it with even greater faith. Like Governor Fubara, you will see the real leader of the people. He is not a man who seeks accolades. We have seen him,” Secondus said.

He lauded Fubara’s inclusive governance approach, citing his adherence to the principle of loving one’s neighbor as oneself, a core tenet of the Ten Commandments.

A Call for Unity

Secondus’ comments underscore ongoing tensions within the PDP and serve as a reminder of the intricate political alliances and power plays that define Nigeria’s political landscape. As Rivers State charts its path forward under Governor Fubara’s administration, the former PDP chairman called for prayers and support for the governor, reiterating that power ultimately comes from God.
