I’m not against Islam as FCT minister – Wike

In response to allegations, Minister Nyesom Wike of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has denied making laws against the Islamic religion in Nigeria.

During a meeting with the Abuja National Mosque Management Committee, led by Chairman Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar, Wike emphasized that his administration is not enacting laws that are contrary to Islamic beliefs.

Addressing the issue, the former Rivers State governor condemned those who maliciously incite religious sentiments for cheap political gains. He stated, “In Nigeria, I have no reason to incite hatred towards any religious group and instead should support anyone who is fighting for a noble cause.”

Wike further emphasized that the government is committed to supporting the maintenance of national monuments, regardless of their religious affiliations. He urged unity and peace among the citizens, calling upon his visitors to pray for the country’s well-being.
