Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr Festus Keyamo, on Tuesday, October 14, mocked both the Peoples Democratic Party (APC), the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Labour Party following the defection of the Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah, to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
With his defection on Tuesday, the APC now controls three states in the South-East while the Labour Party and All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) have one state each.
However, while reacting to the latest defection, Keyamo said on his verified X handle that the three parties are finding it difficult to recover from the shock of the defection.
He added that though they are known for issuing press releases anytime such defections occur, he was ready to help them draft some headlines for such releases they plan to issue.
He wrote: “Before they recover from the shock of their total exit from the South-East and manage to piece together some press statements, let me help the opposition, particularly the fractured PDP, the accidented ADC and the epileptic Labour Party to draft something from which they can take some extracts:
“We are not surprised by this cowardly act of the Governor who has been arm-twisted by the APC or President Tinubu, bla bla bla…..”
“This latest defection of the governor will not affect the fortunes of the opposition bla bla bla …..”
“The 2027 election will be between the APC and the Nigerian people bla bla bla…”
“The formats are old and outdated. The true voters and Nigerians are now wiser.
“I will be back with more drafts for the opposition after the next defection to the APC in a matter of days or weeks.”
