Preaching bad governance is politics, asking me not to talk can't happen – Wike replies Paul Enenche
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Friday informed the founder of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Pastor Paul Enenche that asking not to talk about politics will never happen.
Wike informed Enenche that preaching about bad governance in his church is politics.
He spoke during the commissioning of a pedestrian flyover built by DIGC at the church's headquarters in Abuja.
The Minister recalled how Enenche cautioned him against talking politics during the commissioning.
He said: "The Chairman of AMAC, even though I have been asked by Pastor Paul Enenche not to campaign here, I already told him some weeks ago at the Idoma Hall of Fame event while delivering a paper that I was coming to use it as an opportunity, even in the church when he preaches, he talks about bad governance and that is politics.
"So, commissioning a project like this is not something we'll just come and thank God and go. No, it's not going to work.
"Let me say clearly and for the society to hear, when I was governor in 2015, that was my first time I had an encounter with Paul Enenche and his wife.
"I invited him for the year ending, praising singing and thanking God and that was my first encounter with them."
