Dele Henry Alake, the spokesperson for President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, recently discussed the motivations behind the visits of opposition party members, such as former Rivers governor Nyesom Wike, Olisa Metuh, and Pius Anyim, to President Tinubu. In an interview on Channels Television, Alake shed light on the reasons behind these encounters.
Alake explained that Wike’s visit can be easily understood. He stated that Wike’s meeting with the president was a consequence of the turbulent nature of internal politics within his own party. According to Alake, Wike is seen as a political adversary who is grappling with internal strife. The All Progressives Congress, as a political party, views this situation as advantageous and is benefiting from it. Alake emphasized the significance of this encounter.
Regarding the visits of Olisa Metuh and Pius Anyim, Alake revealed that they came to express their appreciation to President Tinubu for his initiatives, which have elevated Nigeria’s standing on the global stage. Alake acknowledged the rarity of opposition party members speaking the truth or acknowledging the president’s accomplishments. Consequently, their recognition was valued by the party.
