Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, on Saturday commissioned a new radio station known as Majority FM 89.5 in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, as part of political activities ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The radio station is located within the office of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors in Port Harcourt. The development comes amid increased political movements in the South-South region linked to President Bola Tinubu’s re-election plans.
A video shared on social media by Wike’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, showed the minister inspecting the facility. In the footage, Wike moved around the studio and interacted with staff working at the station.
According to information shared alongside the video, the station was established to serve as a channel for spreading political messages across Rivers State. It is expected to reach all wards and units within the state.
During the commissioning, Wike stated that the station was ready to support political engagement and communication as preparations for the 2027 elections continue. He added that the platform would help pass information across communities in Rivers State.
After the inspection, Wike left the facility, while the video of the event continued to circulate online, drawing attention to the new station and its role in ongoing political activities in the state.
