A video showing the moment Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), shook hands with President Bola Tinubu as he departed the country for Equatorial Guinea has surfaced.

The president left Abuja for Malabo on a three-day official visit to honor President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo's invitation.
At the tarmac, National Chairman Abdullai Ganduje, Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma, Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila, and other top government officials were present.

Wike, a chieftain of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has formed an alliance with the ruling party. He played a key role in President Bola Tinubu's victory in Rivers State during the 2023 presidential elections.

Ngelale stated that Tinubu will meet with the Equatorial Guinean President at the Presidential Villa upon arrival and will hold meetings with Mbasogo to sign agreements, particularly regarding oil and gas and security.
