Festus Keyamo, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, claims that President Bola Tinubu will face little resistance during the 2027 general elections. In a recent appearance on Channels Television, Keyamo characterized the upcoming poll as a coronation for the incumbent president rather than a competitive contest.
Keyamo expressed confidence that the All Progressives Congress will secure another term, citing the administration’s policy accomplishments as the primary reason for sustained public support. He explicitly rejected the electoral viability of major opposition figures, specifically mentioning Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar.
The minister grounded his prediction in what he termed demographic calculations. During the interview, he asserted that the opposition lacks a clear path to victory, noting that he struggles to identify where supporters for candidates like Peter Obi would emerge from in the next voting cycle.
