As soon as the violence was being aired, some ministers, including the Minister of Labour, Chief Emeka Wogu; Minister of State, Power, Zaynab Kuchi and the Director-General, Bureau of Public Procurement, Emeka Ezeh, quickly milled around Wike, who is believed to be the force behind the five anti-Amaechi lawmakers. Some of them were heard telling Wike that the impression in town was that he was the brain behind the crisis. To this, the minister quickly replied, “Did you see me there? I was in Abuja here when it was happening.” As some of them screamed as they watched how a lawmaker was hitting his colleague with a broken maze on the head, Wike was overhead saying the crisis was part of politics.
