Not one to shy away from controversies, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesome Wike recently stirred reactions as he was seen rocking a Versace Demin Outfit alleged to be worth $1,402.
Reactions to the luxury were those of anger and disdain as many wonder about the audacity in the face of biting hunger and hardship. Others believe his status warrants lavish lifestyle.
The reactions:
fliks: “The boys from Aba could design something superior to this at a fraction of the cost. Despite the current economic climate in Nigeria, these individuals have the audacity to flaunt their wealth while denying people a basic minimum wage. The absurdity that is Nigeria persists…”
@bashrum_mo: “May poverty mixed with foolishness and gross stupidity not be our portion. So a successful lawyer, local government chairman, former minister, former 2 term governor and serving minister wearing a little over 1M outfit is an issue that should warrant posting it? And as expected the mobs are convulsing under the post..”
@jrnaib2: “It seems Wike’s tailor has joined Gov. Sim Fubara’s camp”
@BwalaDaniel: “@GovWike Wike’s designer defected? @SimFubaraKSC Fubara seem to have snatched his structure and his fashion designer ohh. Oginifanu Biko? To add injury to salt, he wore this in the summer, or to put it the African way “during hot weather””

@grace_emmanuel: “This is the change you promised Nigerians , see as. he is dressed like a 3ead corpse. The funny thing is that despite all these expensive dress someone wearing an okirika will still look better than these politicians. They only spend money on nonsense”
@ksolo_his: “Expensive but the design no fit am abi na advert him dey do for denim”
@obaofph01 : “Wike’s tailor is in Fubara’s camp. Sim Fubara is in charge.“
