Ben Bruce Blasts Lai Mohammed; Lai Denies Saying Economy Is Out Of PMB's Control
The minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has debunked reports that while appearing on a radio show on Saturday, he claimed the Nigerian economy had gone out of control of the current administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The minister was reported to have said the situation was as a result of the global economic meltdown having a negative spiral effect on the economy. He was also said to have explained on the show that the situation was so bad because Nigeria cannot determine the price of crude or gas.
In reaction to the reports of the minister’s claims, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) expressed his disappointment Sunday morning on Twitter(see his tweets above)
In a reaction to the reports and criticisms, the minister on Sunday issued a statement through his special assistant, Segun Adeyemi, in which he claimed his words were distorte
The statement reads:
“On Saturday morning, I appeared on a Radio show here in Abuja at which I spoke extensively on the issues affecting our country, especially the economy.”
“To my surprise, my views were twisted and I was reported to have said that the economy of our country is beyond the control of the President.
“This is a gross misrepresentation of what I said. I could not have said our economy is out of the control of our President or the administration he heads. As a matter of fact, this Administration has decided to turn the economic disaster that we inherited to a blessing by diversifying our economy.
“I don’t know the reason behind the gross distortion of my comments on the radio, but whatever the motive is, Nigerians should disregard such distortion and continue to support our President and his Administration to take our country out of the woods.”
The minister maintained that the Buhari administration has decided to turn the economic disaster around by diversifying the economy and called for support of the citizenry in the quest to achieve the government’s aim.
