The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has claimed that the African Democratic Congress, ADC, is using ‘419 format’ on Nigerians.

Keyamo stated this while speaking on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

According to him, ADC is not using new tactics and therefore cannot deceive Nigerians ahead of the 2027 elections.

“They know us very well and we also know them very well. They are not strangers to us,” Keyamo said.

“And some of these tactics they are using are what is called 419. It was what I used to prosecute people as EFCC prosecutor.

“The format they are using is expired. Nigerians know that format already. So you cannot use it to deceive them. Reeling out figures, picking out isolated incidents and using them for generalisation.”
