2027 Presidency: Wike Should Know That If Tinubu Wins This Election, He Will Not Go Free – Opara

In a recent interview on Symfoni TV, on Monday, October 12, 2026, Maxwell Opara, Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) House of Representatives candidate for Aboh Mbaise/Ngor Okpala Federal Constituency in Imo State, discussed the political relationship between Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, and President Bola Ahmed Tinubu ahead of the 2027 general election.

Opara examined the political calculations surrounding the forthcoming presidential election, expressing concerns about the consequences that political decisions could have for prominent figures after the election. He suggested that politicians supporting the incumbent president should consider the possible implications of their actions beyond the immediate electoral contest.

According to Opara, “Wike should know that if Tinubu wins this election, he will not go free.” He made the statement while discussing Wike’s political activities and his relationship with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Opara’s remarks reflected his criticism of Wike’s political position and his involvement in the disagreements affecting the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He argued that political alliances formed during an election period could have implications for the individuals involved, particularly when the interests of political actors change.

The NDC candidate also discussed the importance of political accountability, suggesting that politicians should carefully consider the long term consequences of their decisions. He maintained that political support should not be viewed only in terms of immediate benefits but also in relation to the future interests of those involved.

His comments came amid preparations for the 2027 general election, with political parties and prominent figures positioning themselves ahead of the contest. Wike’s relationship with the ruling APC and his continued involvement in the PDP crisis have remained subjects of political discussion.

Opara further suggested that political circumstances could change after an election, making it important for political actors to assess the implications of their alliances.

He concluded that politicians should consider the long term consequences of their political decisions ahead of the 2027 presidential election, arguing that alliances formed during the campaign period may not necessarily guarantee future political protection.
