Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has called on all members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to put President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027 above their personal ambitions.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Keyamo said Tinubu needs a second term to complete the reforms he has begun in governance. He warned that it would be a setback if another government takes over in 2027 and halts these initiatives, as has happened in the past.
He said, “Every single APC member in Nigeria today should be concentrating on the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu irrespective of whether it affects your personal interest or not.”
Keyamo also reacted to the recent defection of Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to the APC. Despite being a prominent APC figure from the state, he said he had stepped aside to allow the governor lead the party in Delta, describing it as a sacrifice for the greater good of the APC and Tinubu’s re-election.
“Whether I lose out politically or not is irrelevant. What matters is ensuring Mr President is re-elected,” Keyamo stated.
