Yilwatda, who also said he was \u201cjealous\u201d that Wike belongs to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), expressed a desire to have him in the APC.<\/p>\n

The project forms part of activities marking President Bola Tinubu\u2019s third year in office, with Yilwatda representing the President at the event.<\/p>\n
Speaking at the ceremony, he said, \u201cThe workaholic, every working, and tireless Minister, and I don\u2019t know when you sleep.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Minister of FCT, Nyesom Wike, you know that I\u2019m jealous that you are in the PDP, I wish I could corner you and bring you to APC.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut I\u2019m happy that PDP borrowed you to us in 2023, and I saw your letter then to the National Working Committee of PDP borrowing you to us.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know that it would lead to such a remark feat by you that what APC can do some of the PDP members can also do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
