The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, has submitted that former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, can not contribute meaningfully to the political fortunes of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar in the 2027 elections. According to him, it will be difficult for Atiku to win the 2027 presidency with Amaechi as his running mate. Wike submitted that Atiku, who is the 2027 presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), did not choose Amaechi as his running mate for political reasons, but for financial gains. Wike also criticized Amaechi for turning around to accept the ADC vice presidential candidate role after initially rejecting the party primaries which produced Atiku as corrupt. “Amaechi being the running mate to Atiku, I have come to know that it will indeed be difficult for Atiku to become president.
