(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, says the newly formed African Democratic Congress, ADC-led coalition, is a journey heading to nowhere.

Keyamo stated this when he appeared on Arise News on Tuesday, saying that the coalition is shallow and is set up to fail from the outset.

According to him, ADC is nothing more than a gathering of retired politicians who lack electoral value and the All Progressives Congress, APC, is very alert, and the aim of the party is to deliver the dividends of democratic governance to Nigerians.

“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 largely left 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.”
