Festus Keyamo, Nigeria's Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, has taken issue with former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar's recent behavior during a press conference. During the event, Atiku repeatedly referred to President Bola Tinubu by his first name, "Bola," which Keyamo deemed "very disrespectful and discourteous."
The minister emphasized that the President's office should be treated with dignity, regardless of political disagreements. Keyamo argued that Atiku's actions were motivated by personal animosity, stating that his tone "reeks of pain and bitterness in his heart." Additionally, Keyamo pointed out the inconsistency in Atiku's claim that Tinubu was older than him while simultaneously addressing him by his first name.
