Why all this noise about renaming the ICC after Tinubu? Should we rename it after armed robbers?”- Wike replies to his critics
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has responded to Nigerians who criticized him for renaming the International Conference Centre after President Bola Tinubu.
Speaking during his monthly media parley with journalists in Abuja today July 3, Wike asked if the centre should have been renamed after armed robbers.
“That place is booked till 2027. Now you are saying, why did I name it after Bola Tinubu? Who should I name it after? Who is more qualified?
“What is called International Conference Centre? We have IBB International Golf Club. Why didn’t we leave it as the International Golf Club?
International Conference Centre is not a name tied to anybody. What is sycophancy? Sycophancy that somebody showed leadership, supported me to achieve what was achieved?
It’s only when the person dies that we want to remember them. But while alive and pouring their energy into making the country better, we ignore them. I will not do that.
Why all this noise about renaming the ICC after Tinubu? Should we rename it after armed robbers?” he said
