Nigerians express worry over Wike’s health Nigerians have expressed deep concern over the alleged dwindling health condition of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
The concerns arose following recent pictures and clips of the minister, who was spotted at a function in Rivers State.
Speaking on Wike’s appearance, Nigerians in various statements on X mentioned that Wike looked ”sickly.”
It will be recalled that in July 2023, the former governor of Rivers State disclosed that he was poisoned at the secretariat of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Wike stated this during a special Thanksgiving service organised by his family at the St. Peters Deanery, Rumuepirikom, in the Obio-Akpor area of the state.
Wike stated that in 2018, he was poisoned at the PDP secretariat, which necessitated him flying to Beirut at midnight, where doctors informed him that his liver and kidneys were damaged
According to Wike, after the doctors attended to him, they informed him that the organs were still functional.
However, speaking on his looks and health condition, Nigerians expressed worries, with many wondering if he is battling an undisclosed health condition.
This publication highlights some reactions of Nigerians to Wike’s recent looks.
Immanuel, ”Are you aware that when God turns his back on someone, his or her entire life starts shrinking? Do you know what it means for widows, homeless children, and even the dead to cry unto Heaven against Wike, and you expect him to glow with vitality? He has offended Life itself.”
Akram, ”Look, Ezenwo Nyesom was poisoned a few years ago (2018). Though he miraculously recovered after being flown to Beirut for treatment, man hasn’t been the same since then. He should retire from politics and spend the rest of his life in a Swiss lakeside or riverine town.
”Buhil, ”When the soul of a man is constantly restless, picking fights day in day out, he becomes a shell of himself. How can one man be talking and fighting 24/7 days? Wealth without peace.”
Dr Umoren, ”All this bitterness and resentment and anger is not helping him too. He should take a break and go take care of his physical and mental health.”
Femi John, ”This man is the most powerful Nigerian today. BAT can’t match him at all. I honestly wish he is alive much longer to be able to confess to us after he must have fallen out with BAT(which is sure). Me, I am looking forward to that.”
Kelechi Uche, ”This man is going down every day & his associates are not telling him the truth. Compare his looks 5yrs back & you’ll wonder if the man is within his 50s. He looks 70 despite access to money & power. People close to him should advise him to take life easy. He looks too old.”
