Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information and Culture, has again come out to praise the Buhari-led administration saying before they came into power, there was major insecurity in the Federal Capital Territory Abuja.Lai made this statement on Friday after inspecting the venue meant for the UN World Tourism Organisation (UNTWO) commission for Africa meeting set to take place from June 4th to 6th at the Transcorp Hilton in Abuja.
”But for the effort of this government mostly in the area of fighting insecurity, we won’t be hosting this meeting in Nigeria. When we were bidding to host this conference in 2016, I had to explain to them that the federal government of Nigeria was on top of the security situation in Nigeria. Four-five years ago, it would have been impossible to host this conference in Nigeria. I remember that four-five years ago, nobody in Abuja was sleeping with his or her two eyes closed. But we are very confident in holding this meeting here because of the success we have recorded in decapitating Boko Haram.” he said Photo Credit: Getty
