2027: Heaven won’t fall if Atiku is not on the ballot – Keyamo

Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development Festus Keyamo said Nigeria will not suffer a crisis if former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar is not on the 2027 ballot, according to Vanguard, Punch, Daily Trust and The Sun Nigeria. Punch and Daily Trust linked his remarks to a Federal High Court judgment that nullified the David Mark-led leadership of the African Democratic Congress. Vanguard reported that Keyamo criticised what he called the inconsistent attitude of opposition parties towards the judiciary, arguing that political actors should respect court decisions. The sources describe the story as developing, and the excerpts do not give further details on the court case or its outcome. Summary from 5 sources

Sources differ: Vanguard and Punch do not state the court ruling date, while Daily Trust refers to Thursday's judgment.
