Renowned singer and activist Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa, widely known as Charly Boy, has strongly criticized Nyesom Wike, the Federal Capital Territory Minister, labeling him the ‘mistake maker’ of the century.
Charly Boy’s comments were provoked by Wike’s recent statement to the people of Rivers State, where Wike acknowledged making a mistake and expressed his readiness to rectify it at the appropriate time.
“I want to say this clearly, in life we have made a mistake. I have made a mistake. I own it up and I say God forgive me. I have said all of you forgive me. But we will correct it at the appropriate time,” Wike declared.
This statement was made due to the political tussle between Wike and Fubara, as he apologized to the people of Rivers State for endorsing Fubara.
The rift between Wike and Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has led to a polarization of the state House of Assembly into two opposing camps, intensifying the political tension in the region.
In response to the statement, Charly Boy took to his X handle on Tuesday to express his view, suggesting that Wike might soon declare another mistake by supporting Bola Tinubu in the 2023 elections.
He wrote: “I made a mistake in 2016 by supporting Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as PDP National Chairman. I made another mistake in 2017 by supporting Prince Uche Secondus as PDP National Chairman. I made another mistake for supporting Tambuwal for PDP ticket in 2019.
” I made yet another mistake in 2021 by supporting Senator Iyorchia Ayu as PDP National Chairman. And, most recently, I made a mistake in 2023 by supporting Sir Sim Fubara as my successor.
“I know very soon he will make another mistake for supporting Tinubu in 2023. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the mistake maker of the century.”
