The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has hosted a group of suspended lawmakers from the Rivers State House of Assembly in the United Kingdom on Monday.
According to a post by Wike’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, the lawmakers—currently in the UK for a “legislative capacity building” program—were treated to a dinner by the minister.
“Yesterday, the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, hosted Rivers State House of Assembly members who are in the United Kingdom for Legislative Capacity Building, to a dinner,” Olayinka shared on X.com.
Wike left Nigeria on Sunday after meeting with political allies in Port Harcourt.
