The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has declared that he cannot be pocketed by anybody. Wike made the remark while dismissing claims that he is unhappy with the presidential ambition of Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State. The minister spoke during an interview on Channels Television's Politics Today on Tuesday night. He noted that Makinde wouldn’t allow the PDP to experience the kind of crisis ongoing if he wanted to be the party's presidential candidate. According to Wike: "You can't put people like us in your pocket; it's not possible. Ask Fayose; he knows. You must know your people: those who will accept certain things and those who will not. "What do you mean that I'm not happy for Makinde to be a presidential candidate? Let's not trivialize things. "It's not about being a Ph.D. holder, an engineer, or a lawyer, that is not it. Being a presidential candidate is not just waking up in the morning and saying you want to be a presidential candidate. No. "Some people just want to be a presidential candidate. Assuming you really want to be a presidential candidate, will you allow your party to have this kind of crisis?"
