The Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo, says Nigerians have spoken for themselves in the just concluded FCT polls as well as the by-elections in Rivers and Kano states.
Keyamo stated this in a post on his verified X handle on Sunday.
The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on February 21 conducted the FCT area council elections and by-elections in Rivers and Kano states.Reacting, the minister said, “The real Nigerians have now spoken for themselves, not those who pose for cameras in front of the National Assembly, claiming to speak for Nigerians.
“Not some funny journalists who don’t know the polling units in their villages, seated comfortably in some studios and claiming to speak for Nigerians and not the clueless opposition claiming to speak for Nigerians.
“Everyone or any group have a right to their opinions, but never claim to speak for ‘Nigerians’ when there is no yardstick to ascertain your claim.
“When you make your point, clearly state it is your own belief or the position of your NGO or organisation, but do not pose as some Voltron defending majority of ‘Nigerians’.That is just my point.”
