The Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP) has claimed that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike and security agencies are planning to arrest the lawmaker representing Ideato Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon Ugochinyere Michael Ikeagwuonu.
The Coalition made the allegation in a statement made available to Naija News on Thursday after a press conference in Abuja.
Speaking via its Secretary-General, Peter Ameh, CUPP described the alleged plot as a grave threat to democracy.
They labeled it a “clandestine scheme to defame, tarnish, and stifle the voice of one of Nigeria’s most vocal and incorruptible opposition leaders.” 
The group claimed that Wike allies, in collaboration with complicit security agencies, have been training fake witnesses for over six weeks in Abuja to provide false testimony against Ugochinyere.
“This is a desperate, low-budget Nollywood production whose purpose has already failed,” the Coalition claimed.
They emphasized that “Ikenga’s commitment to speaking truth to power is God-given and cannot be silenced by intimidation, blackmail, or false allegations.”
The coalition also announced plans for a nationwide protests to resist the alleged plot
Naija News reports that Ugochinyere has been critical of Wike, particularly regarding his role in the ongoing crisis within the opposition party, the People’s Democratic Party, PDP.
