The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has denied buying a 300 million naira Armoured Lexus car on assumption of office.

Wike, who spoke after his tour of the Abuja Light Rail, denied social media reports and challenged reporters to touch his car to confirm whether it was a bulletproof car or not. 

The ex-governor of Rivers State said he has not had a meeting with officials of the FCT Administration let alone approve a car for himself.
