The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has established a new radio station, Majority FM 89.5, as part of political mobilisation efforts ahead of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s 2027 re-election bid.
The radio station is located within the Renewed Hope Ambassadors’ office in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, and is expected to serve as a key communication platform for the Renewed Hope movement, a group closely aligned with the Tinubu administration.
The development comes amid intensified political activities in the South-South region as preparations gradually build toward the 2027 general elections.
In a video circulating on social media, Wike is seen inspecting the newly launched facility, moving through the studio and interacting with staff members.
Speaking during the commissioning, the former Rivers State governor described the station as a grassroots-driven platform aimed at amplifying political messages across the state.
“This will take messages from all over the 666 units of Rivers State. We are ready for this job, we are ready for 2027,” Wike said.
Political analysts say the establishment of Majority FM 89.5 further underscores Wike’s growing influence in Rivers State’s political landscape and signals a strategic push to shape public opinion ahead of the next election cycle.
As of the time of filing this report, neither Wike nor the Renewed Hope Ambassadors had issued an official statement detailing the station’s operational guidelines or programming focus.
