Keyamo Says Nigeria Will Remain Stable Without Atiku on 2027 Ballot
The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has said Nigeria’s democracy would not be threatened if former Vice President Atiku Abubakar does not contest the 2027 presidential election.
Keyamo made the statement on Friday during an interview on Frontline, a current affairs programme on Eagle 102.5 FM, Ilese-Ijebu.
He was reacting to criticisms of his earlier remark that heaven would not fall if Atiku was absent from the ballot in 2027 amid the leadership crisis rocking the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
According to the minister, Atiku’s absence from the presidential race should not be portrayed as a threat to Nigeria’s democracy.
