2027: ‘Journey to nowhere’ – Keyamo mocks opposition summit

Festus Keyamo, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, has criticized opposition political parties for their planned summit ahead of the 2027 general elections. In a post on his verified X account, Keyamo dubbed the move as 'journey to nowhere'. The G-100, a coalition of opposition parties, had initially scheduled a summit for August 18 but moved it to August 31, 2026, to give participating parties more time for consultations.

The G-100 comprises parties such as the African Democratic Congress, NDC, and PRP, among others. Keyamo commented on these developments, stating, "This is a journey to nowhere." The G-100 has expressed optimism about fielding a single presidential candidate to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
