Abati & Rufai Almost Fought on Air Over Wike’s Comment | Who Was Wrong? ANALYSIS TIME

Rufai Oseni and Reuben Abati had a tense exchange while discussing Nyesom Wike’s declaration that he would deliver the FCT and Rivers State for President Bola Tinubu in 2027. Rufai questioned how Wike could remain a major PDP figure while openly backing the APC presidential candidate against the PDP’s own flagbearer. Abati then warned Rufai that some of his wording could expose him or the station to a possible lawsuit. In this video, I break down the exchange, Rufai’s argument, Abati’s warning, Wike’s political position and the bigger question surrounding PDP, Tinubu and the 2027 election.
