Wike is calling out all the fake supporters jumping on Tinubu's bandwagon now. The Minister for the FCT, Nyesom Wike, made these comments in Rivers State's Emohua Local Government. He singled out politicians he called emergency fans of President Bola Tinubu. He told them they need to honor all the existing political agreements in Rivers State.

He pointed to the Ikwerre ethnic group's support during the last election. Wike claimed the Ikwerre people took a big risk and voted heavily for Tinubu when it was not a sure thing. That support, he argued, is what secured the president's win in Rivers State. He contrasted that early loyalty with people who are only showing support now that Tinubu is in power. Wike said he was the first in his former party, the PDP, to argue the South should have eight full years of presidency. He promised the same support for the next election in 2027.

His main warning was about vigilance. He insisted that people in Rivers State have to stick to their deals. He mocked the new wave of supporters as emergency singers of the pro-Tinubu slogan. Becoming one of those now, he warned, would not help anyone trying to rewrite the rules.
