The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, compared Abia State Governor Alex Otti’s stint in the Labour Party to that of a prodigal son, suggesting that Otti will eventually return to his rightful place.
Otti, who was previously a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2020 after leaving the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), joined the Labour Party and went on to win the governorship election in 2023.
Keyamo made this remark during his speech at the groundbreaking ceremony for the Abia International Airport.

“The President’s motivation was also the fact that he loves the governor of this state, he loves his spirit. I know the comments he has made about the governor of this state and how much people here love him so much.
“Today is not the day for politics, he strayed away, he was with us, he strayed away like the prodigal son.” He said
Keyamo further explained how the facility was developed into an international airport, rather than the airstrip that had originally been planned.
“When I called Dr Alex Otti and I broke the news to him, he said no, I will partner with you, I will also put in counterpart funding, let us upgrade it to an international airport. This was what happened. As minister of aviation, I’m just telling you the trajectory.”
