FCT Minister Nyesom Wike says those questioning his source of wealth know little about his background and has defended his usage of a Rolls-Royce.
A former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, had questioned Wike’s source of wealth during Thursday’s edition of Channels Television’s Politics Today, especially when he was spotted with the luxury car.
However, a day after, Wike said he was born into a comfortable family before taking up political leadership.
“I have a Rolls-Royce. So what? Nobody gave it to me. Before harmattan, there was cold. I didn’t come from the same background as Rotimi Amaechi,” the FCT minister said on Friday’s edition of the show.
“As a student, I was using a Mercedes-Benz. My father was the general manager of many companies. I will not say [my family was] too rich like the Dangotes. ”
