Only God can stop Tinubu's inauguration on May 29 - Festus Keyamo

The minister of state for labour and employment, Festus Keyamo (SAN) has said that it is only God that can stop the handover ceremony of president-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu on May 29.

The All Progressives Congress APC, chieftain said this in a statement made available to the media on Tuesday, April 25.

According to Kyamo, the party has no fear concerning the upcoming inauguration of Bola Tinubu.

“Why should we exercise any fear? Any opposition member alive now who believes that for some legal reasons, Asiwaju will not be inaugurated must be living in fools’ paradise.”

“Except there is an Act of God who is Almighty, nothing will stop the inauguration of Asiwaju. The opposition should just concentrate on their Petitions in court or start preparing for 2027,” he said.

His comment comes following afresh suit filed against Bola Tinubu, the president-elect, Bola Tinubu.

A former presidential candidate of the Hope Democratic Party (HDP) in the 2019 election and constitutional lawyer, Ambrose Owuru, instituted the suit with the marked number CA/CV/259/2023, asking the Court of Appeal to stop the inauguration from taking place.

The plaintiff joined President Muhammadu Buhari; Abubakar Malami, the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice; and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd respondents in the motion.
