Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), says anyone who gets into politics should be prepared for betrayal.
Speaking at a banquet he hosted in Port-Harcourt, the Rivers state capital on Sunday, Wike said politics and betrayal are from the same parents.
The immediate-past governor of Rivers said anyone who cries to him that they have been betrayed, after they are gone, he settles down to a good whiskey. You must have shock absorbers; thats the only way you can survive. Thats why some of you who are always crying if you want to survive in life, you must have a shock absorber, he stated.
President Tinubu, when we met, told me: look, politics and betrayal are the same mother and father. If you dont want to be betrayed, dont enter into politics. Dont bother that anybody betrayed you. Prepare yourself that it will happen. So, when I see some of you (mimics crying), saying: I cant believe this happened; immediately you go, I find one good whiskey and drinkto me, this one is not prepared. I am fully prepared. That is what President Tinubu taught me., he stated.
The Ministers comments came weeks after him and Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers, agreed to resolve their rift.
Both men were at loggerheads over issues concerning the state. However, they seemingly agreed to end the feud after Tinubu intervened.
