Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has declared that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar opposition is a mission to nowhere.
Wike made this declaration on Sunday, asserting that any opposition fronted by him is destined for massive failure.
Wike’s spokesman, Lere Olayinka, issued a press statement in response to Atiku’s recent visit to former President Muhammadu Buhari in Kaduna on Sunday. 
Atiku, accompanied by political allies such as former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai and former Sokoto State Governor Aminu Tambuwal, paid Sallah homage to Buhari.
Olayinka via his official Facebook page derided Atiku’s explanation for the visit, labeling it as mere political posturing.
“Those of us who have sense know that any opposition being led by Atiku is a failure from the beginning,” Olayinka wrote.
According to him, Atiku’s commitment to the opposition remains questionable, claiming the former PDP flagbearer would not hesitate to switch sides if offered a political deal by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The reason is, if tomorrow President Tinubu calls Atiku and tells him, ‘Don’t worry, I will hand over to you in 2027, just join APC,’ he (Atiku) will be in the APC immediately,” Olayinka added.
The FCT Minister’s spokesman further ridiculed the former Vice President’s visit to Buhari, suggesting that Atiku should have extended the same courtesy to former President Olusegun Obasanjo in Abeokuta for Lisabi Day.
“I am still waiting for Atiku to carry body and go to Abeokuta to pay Lisabi Day homage to OBJ sha. Also, we are doing the Egungun Festival in my hometown next month. Let him not forget to pay Egungun Festival homage to us in Okemesi Ekiti,” Olayinka wrote.
