What I did to Dokpesi’s children despite bad terms – Wike

Despite strained political relations with the late AIT founder, Raymond Dokpesi, the Federal Capital Territory’s Minister Nyesom Wike has said he gave the children his property back.

In an interview with a few select television channels in Abuja, Wike made this statement.

According to Wike, his political disagreement with the late media mogul did not force him to take possession of property that belonged to his family.

“The founder of AIT, the late Dokpesi, you know, was not on good terms politically before he died. But two to three nights ago, his Children came to me,” he said.

“And I said look, even though your dad and I were not good politically. I cannot allow this to happen to you people.

“I called the director of land, called the ES FCDA, called the Director, Urban and Rural planning and said let me go and visit the place. That was on Thursday. [I saw] houses on top while they were blasting the rock.

“I said, “What is this? Director, you people allocated this rock to people? I said, something must be wrong with you people. Go and get me a memo, I’m going to sign it now.

“And I cancelled that [allocation], this is wickedness. [I told Dokpesi’s children], bring your papers, because what is wrong is wrong.

“The children were shocked. Why do I have to, you’ve seen what is wrong but simply because you don’t have a good relationship you visit the sin of parents on the children.

“Everybody knows my position that politically I wasn’t in a good relationship with their father. But is that why I should continue when the man in question is not alive?

“I said, ‘take back your property. I told them, go and withdraw the matter from court. I can’t be here and watch such things happen.’

While Wike contested the PDP primary election and later turned against the party when he failed to get the ticket, Dokpesi supported Atiku Abubakar’s presidential ticket in the 2023 general elections.
