Senator Ireti Kingibe has discussed a distressing encounter and the continuous conflict between herself and Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). She made it clear in an interview with Arise Television that she will keep speaking up, regardless of who finds it uncomfortable.

She said, “Some people say I shouldn’t shout or complain, but that’s what I was elected for. If I can’t speak up, I might as well resign.”

After that, the senator related a startling event. She claims that when her driver observed something strange, she had just returned from an official trip to Sokoto for legislative oversight.

“He said, ‘A black car has been following us.’ I said from when? He said, ‘Since we left the airport.’ I said okay, don’t go home, just go to a busier Gana street, and after a while, I told him, Park. And then the Jeep passed, but the truth is that I’m a senator of the federal Republic of Nigeria,” she said.

She raised alarm despite not making any direct accusations, particularly because of her public conflicts with Wike.

“I have rights, and I don’t think that even with Wike’s impunity, that he would try to harm me for saying you can’t do ABCD,” she said.

As a Nigerian lawmaker, Senator Kingibe made it plain that she is free to talk and carry out her duties without fear.
