The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, says he finds personal satisfaction in holding powerful individuals accountable, especially those who believe they are untouchable under the law
Wike made the remarks during a media chat in Abuja, where he addressed the ongoing efforts to recover outstanding ground rents from property owners in the capital city.
“Look at what we are doing differently. People have said that FCT was not working (but) now it is working which means I’m doing things that they (past FCT ministers) refused to do,” he said.
“I found out that most of them didn’t have the courage to annoy people, to step on toes but I take joy when I step on the toes of big men; those who say nothing will happen but I say something will happen. It makes me happy.”
Wike dismissed the idea of selective enforcement that targets only the poor, saying accountability must apply across the board.
“All they want me to do is to make decisions against poor people saying nothing will happen to them but I say something will happen. That is why we are making results. If you don’t do the right thing, too bad. I don’t care.”
