Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed.
Nigeria’s Minister of Information and Cultire, Lai Mohammed, has stated that the President Muhammadu Buhari administration owes Nigerians a duty of developing the country.
He said this in Tatabu village, Niger state, while inspecting the reconstructed and rehabilitated Ilorin-Jebba- Mokwa road project.
The Ilorin-Jebba road is part of the Lagos-Algiers road called Trans Sahara roads which cut across West and North Africa.
In Nigeria, the road connects the South-West geo-geographical zone to the Northern part of the country.
And addressing journalists, the minister stated that the government was aware of complaints of no money by many Nigerians.
“Yes, people are complaining of no money and high cost of living, but I want to tell you that it would have been worse today but for the massive infrastructure development this government is investing on,” he said.
“When people make these complaints, they easily forget that for 16 years, one political party was in power, sharing money when this road became completely failed,” he also said.
