The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has criticized opposition politicians for using the "rig and die" slogan ahead of the 2027 general elections. Keyamo argues that this slogan should excite all of them, as it would make it difficult for them to blame electoral defeats on rigging if they lose free and fair elections.
He sarcastically suggested that if the opposition loses, they must be willing to disclose how many "riggers" they killed on election day to prove the election was rigged. The slogan was popularized by former Deputy President of the Senate, Ovie Omo-Agege, who is running for a Senate seat in Delta Central. Omo-Agege warned that anyone caught manipulating the 2027 election would be killed, implying no recourse to the courts.
