In a public address where he vowed to fight whoever challenges his system, Wike said it does not matter how long someone has known another person, but the value he/she has added to the person.

“If anybody fights our system, we will fight the person back. Let me tell you what you don’t understand in politics. The moment you claim to be working with us and tomorrow, you shift to our enemy, we will use every might we have against you. We would even leave our enemy and finish you. So all of you who are going to Abuja to hold meetings with our enemies, I will finish you. You can’t come here get contracts, make money, then go to Abuja to work against us and think I will leave you? I will not. I’m not a born again to that level. I’m a Christian, but not a born again to that level. If you touch me or any of my people, you will see the war.”
