Federal Capital Territory FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, on Friday, declared that he remained undistracted in the task of developing the nation’s capital, Abuja.
He said as a politician he can neither hear nor see what his detractors are saying or doing.
The minister disclosed this at the flag off of the design, construction, and furnishing of the office annex of the Body of Benchers of Nigeria in Abuja.
Wike described the occasion as an honor to him.
The minister said; “This honour will prepare us to do more for the legal profession. The good thing about us, you know, as a politician, you must have thick skin. I have thick skin.
“I don’t even hear what people say. I don’t even see those who are saying it, and I can’t reply.
“Three signals a politician must always have.
“One, he can’t see. Two, he can’t talk. Three, he can’t hear.
“So, whatever they are saying, you don’t even hear. Those who are saying it, you don’t even see.
“And because I can’t talk, I cannot reply. I will go ahead and continue to do my work for the best of the country. That is all I can do.”
He said as a lawyer, he is happy to be contributing to the development of legal education and the judiciary.
