Opposition doing everything to distort our achievements and spread misinformation – Lai Mohammed

Minister of Information and culture Lai Mohammed has alleged that the People’s Democratic party, PDP are trying to sabotage the achievements of the Mohammadu Buhari-led administration.

The minister claimed that the Opposition is trying to trigger another EndSARS protest in order to overheat the polity.

This is coming after the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had prayed a Federal High Court, Abuja, to declare the planned exercise of the APC unconstitutional and illegal.

The PDP, in a suit marked, FHC/ABJ/CS/389 2022, also sought a court order deregistering the APC as a political party, having failed to meet the requirements of Sections 222(a), 223(b) and 225 of the Nigerian constitution.

Reacting Mohammed said: “As you know, the folks on the other side have been doing everything in recent times to overheat the polity, distort the achievements of our Administration and spread misinformation.

”Yes, it is very cold out there for the hungry and desperate opposition, but every indication is that they don’t even want to wait for the 2023 elections before testing their popularity or acceptability at the polls.

”How else does one explain their court case seeking the declaration of our convention as illegal? How do you explain their threat of another EndSARS that pushed Nigerians to the brink? How do you explain their glaring misinformation regarding the nation’s state of affairs?”
