A former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank has that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike is looking older than his age does not make him the age nates of the former Governor of Rivers state, Peter Odili and the former National Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party, Uche Secondus.
He said the call became necessary to enable Wike regain his sense of decorum and to treat those deserving of respect with their due irrespective of political differences.
He stressed that no normal person would insult elders like Wike has done except they are under the influence of intoxicants or other harmful substances.
Frank in a statement issued Tuesday decried Wike’s recent barrage of attacks against his former political allies turned foes, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Governor of Rivers State Siminalayi Fubara, Odili, and the 2023 Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi.
He noted: “Wike needs thorough soul searching, character and mental re-examination. Acts of gross disrespect should not be hidden behind political exigencies.
“Because he looks older than his age should not make him believe he is in the same age bracket with Peter Odili, Uche Secondus and others he now takes pleasure in insulting.
“We know Wike is praying to attain age 80 and above someday but if he doesn’t stop his current disdain, disregard and disrespect for those who are older than him, one day he will reap what he has sown.
“We advise him to stop the intake of intoxicants including his 40-year old Whisky and to urgently seek medical attention to determine if he’s doing these things in his right senses or under any influence whatsoever.”
