The name Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, Nyesom Wike appeared in the campaign council of two political parties for the same election to the confusion of many.
Wike, though a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is a Minister in the All Progressives Congress (APC) led Federal Government.
Mr Wike is a two term governor of Rivers State under the PDP had prior to the 2023 election fell out with the party's hierarchy over the choice of its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and the continued stay in office of its then national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.
Wike contested the PDP Presidential primaries, coming second behind Atiku Abubakar, but after the primaries, he had requested that the then national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu should resign as the party's presidential candidate and the party chairman can not both be from the North.
The resulting disagreement in the opposition party would see Wike work for the emergence of Bola Tinubu of the APC as the President.
His name had appeared as Number 12 on the PDP Campaign List and has now appeared as Number 6 on the APC released Campaign Council list.
