Atiku waking retired politicians for coalition - Keyamo

Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has dismissed the newly formed African Democratic Congress (ADC)-led coalition, describing it as a 'journey to nowhere.'

He claimed the coalition is empty and unlikely to succeed from the start. Keyamo argued that the ADC is merely a collection of exhausted political forces with little electoral significance.

A prominent member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Keyamo spoke to Arise News, emphasising that the APC remains vigilant and committed to delivering democratic benefits to the Nigerian people.

“We are not resting our oars, so let me say that very clearly,” Keyamo said.

“Any politician who says that he sees an opponent and he is laughing and beating his chest is a foolish politician.

“But let me tell you that the ADC is in total tatters and they are on a journey to nowhere.

“The ADC as it is today is a collection of individuals who have left largely the PDP. And in leaving the PDP, they are not people who are still holding sway in PDP.

“They are not present people who are in power, who can influence a lot of votes. So you now have a lot of ex-this and ex-that.

“If there are people who are retired, Atiku eventually went to wake them up from retirement to say, please come and give me a semblance of a coalition.”
