The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, says the Federal Government is delivering on its election promises and that only “a few vocal minority are not seeing what the government is doing.’’
The minister stated this when the leadership of the National Association and Nigerian Students (NANS), paid him a courtesy visit in Abuja Tuesday evening. Mohammed said:
The administration is on course in the delivery of the three major electoral promises it made before coming to power. That are: to fight corruption, fight insecurity and fix the economy.
He said in less than two years, the government had restored peace and territories that were taken over in the troubled North-East and defeated the Boko Haram insurgents. In his words:
Our success in fighting insecurity is there for everybody to see. It is not just fighting insecurity but consistently restoring peace to every part of Nigeria.
The minister said the administration deserved credit for securing the freedom of the Chibok school girls so far released by Boko Haram. He assured that the government was working toward the release of the remaining girls as well as others in Boko Haram’s captivity. In fighting corruption, the minister said government took the bull by the horns, considering the fact that it is as deadly as insecurity and has grave effects on national development.
