Nyesom Wike, during a recent press conference from 5:27, delivered a candid and unapologetic message to members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), emphasizing the realities of political competition and strategy. Speaking openly, he made it clear that politics is not driven by sentiment but by calculated moves aimed at gaining advantage over opponents.
Addressing the party directly, Wike underscored his role as a politician and positioned the ADC as part of his opposition. He explained that in such a dynamic environment, it is only natural for politicians to take advantage of weaknesses within rival camps. According to him, expecting otherwise would be unrealistic and contrary to how politics operates.
In his words, “I’m a politician and you are my opposition; if I see any loopholes, I will capitalize on it. I’m not here to help you.” This statement highlighted his firm stance that his responsibility lies with advancing his own political interests rather than assisting competing parties.
He reinforced this point by adding, “It is not my duty to help you, just as if when you see a loophole in a ruling government, you capitalize on it to see if there will be a change of government.” Read_More…
