  "account": "Festus Keyamo, the Mini howster of Aviation and Aerospace Development, has revealed that former Vice President and presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku Abubakar, is suffering from agitated depression. Keyamo made this statement in a post on his official X handle, alleging that Atiku is now very pained and bitter due to President Bola Tinubu outsmarting him politically. This comes after Atiku criticized Tinubu's 30-day petrol price discount, which was announced by the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Taiwo Oyedele.\n\nKeyamo pointed out that Atiku's anger stems from the fact that Tinubu secured the presidency on his first attempt, while Atiku had been contesting since 1993. He also noted that both men have been in politics for decades, with Atiku serving as Vice President under Tinubu when he was Lagos governor. Keyamo emphasized that Atiku's recent outbursts are a result of agitated depression, a higher form of depression in mental health, and urged his allies to help him seek mental health support instead of fueling his outbursts. He cautioned that Atiku's behavior could cause him to lose his remaining supporters as he heads towards political oblivion.",
