Wike Orders Nationwide TV Coverage of Tinubu: “E Go Dey Pain Them, E Go Dey Sweet Us”

In a bold and headline-grabbing directive, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has ordered continuous nationwide television coverage highlighting the achievements of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Speaking in his characteristic style during a media briefing at the FCT Secretariat, Wike declared, “E go dey pain them, e go dey sweet us,” emphasizing the dual impact the public display of government progress would have on critics and supporters alike.

The minister’s remarks underscore a renewed push by the Tinubu administration to counter political opposition and amplify awareness of its developmental strides. Wike, known for his unfiltered political commentary and fierce loyalty, framed the directive as both a celebration of governance and a strategic message to detractors.

“Those who said we wouldn’t perform, let them watch it every day,” Wike said. “We will beam the truth across every screen—projects completed, policies working, lives changing. As e dey pain them, e go dey sweet us!”
