Festus Keyamo, the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, has harshly criticized Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), for repeatedly referring to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as "Bola" during a recent press conference in Abuja. In a statement on his verified X handle, Keyamo deemed Atiku's approach to be "disrespectful and discourteous."
Keyamo emphasized that political disagreements should not impair the respect due to the President's office. This criticism emerged after Atiku spoke to reporters on Friday regarding the soaring price of petrol, the government's role in addressing economic challenges, and the hardships faced by Nigerians. Keyamo stated that Atiku's continuous use of the informal nickname "Bola" for President Tinubu "reeks of pain and bitterness in his heart" and is indicative of the underlying animosity behind the remarks.
