No!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTinubu made me minister, people don\u2019t understand, I have character. What will happen in 2027? I stood and I said I am not going to support injustice. I was threatened that they would do me this and that. They tried many options including using Major Generals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the reported face-off with Governor Siminalayi Fubara of his home state, Rivers, Wike said he did not want to dwell on the matter but later declared that the best test of a person\u2019s character is to give him power and money.<\/p>\n<p>He said; \u201cGive a man power and money, and that is when you will know the person. If you have not given manpower and money don\u2019t say you know the person.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe may be your friend, he may be your son, sister mother or father. I don\u2019t want to go into that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn three months, it is sad for someone to scatter a political structure that supported and brought you up.<br \/>\nYou know what is painful? All these allegations, I smile. Who and who sat with him? In all your doings be grateful in your life no matter the circumstance. Nobody who is a gentleman and a politician will support this kind of thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On his achievements as governor of Rivers State, wike said: \u201cI was paying pensioner\u2019s gratuity every month which were not paid by my predecessor. I took Rivers State to the level where you cannot discuss politics in Nigeria without Rivers State.<\/p>\n<p>I was an ordinary minister when I became a governor. I challenged the sitting governor and I defeated his candidate. I worked hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the new requirements for acquisition of land in the Territory especially the introduction of National Identity Number NIN and Biometric Verification Number BVN to get a Certificate of Occupancy (C of O), the minister said the new features were for security and revenue generation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are a lot of discrepancies, a lot of cloning of C-of-Os, so we have come up with an idea that every allottee who seeks and applies for a C-of-O must supply his NIN; this is one of the features we are going to put in the new C-of-O.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf a corporate body doesn\u2019t have an NIN and they have a property, they must put their BVN. So many persons have not registered, and this will make them go and re-register\u201d, he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing the issue of existing landlords with C-of-Os, Wike stated that they would only be required to pay a nominal fee for recertification.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor everyone who has a C-of-O, they will come for a recertification, so that we can incorporate the NIN or BVN.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose who had a C-of-O before don\u2019t need to pay money again; the highest they can pay is N50,000, and corporate bodies will pay N100,000. It helps in terms of security; it also helps to improve our revenue generation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are people who own seven properties, so this will identify them so they can pay taxes\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Says good character should never be sacrificed on the altar of politics On Fubara, he says \u2018give a man power, money that is when you
