Joe Igbokwe, a prominent member of the All Progressives Congress, has called for the dismissal of the soldier who had a confrontational exchange with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
The unidentified soldier had obstructed Wike and officials of the FCTA from accessing a section of land in the FCT.
The officer, claiming he was following orders, informed Wike that he would not be permitted to enter the property. Wike, however, challenged his authority, resulting in a heated confrontation.
In a response on Facebook, Igbokwe questioned who was behind the military officer's challenge to the FCT Minister.
He stated, “Who is this man in uniform? What gives him such confidence? Who is supporting him? This is unacceptable! He must be removed from his position.”
Wike’s media aide, Lere Olayinka, alleged that a former Chief of Naval Staff had instructed the soldier to block his principal.
