Hilda Dokubo denies joining political coalition after Wike visit
Nollywood actress and Labour Party National Women Leader Hilda Dokubo has addressed backlash regarding her recent meeting with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
Following the circulation of photographs from the meeting in Port Harcourt, speculation arose concerning Dokubo’s political allegiance and potential involvement in a new coalition ahead of the 2027 general elections. Dokubo clarified in an Instagram statement that she met with Wike in her official capacity as the National Women Leader of the Labour Party, rather than as an actress or an individual seeking political favors.
Dokubo emphasized that she remains a member of the Labour Party of Nigeria and dismissed claims that she was searching for a new political home. She stated that she chose to speak out to prevent the spread of misinformation and distortions regarding the visit.
