The Special Assistant to the Ekiti State Governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka has described the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed as unfit to speak for any decent government, saying, “he speaks like a tout.”
Olayinka, who reacted to statement by the Minister that Governor Ayodele Fayose and others kicking against President Muhammadu Buhari’s Treasury Single Account policy should return to elementary school, said it was shameful that the Minister ran away from the main issue and chose to attack personalities.
Olayinka said: “Now that Daddy Lai Mohammed has been elevated to the position of the spokesperson of the Federal Government of Nigeria, he needs to be purged of the APC basket mouth syndrome that made him to speak like a tout.”
Governor Fayose’s spokesperson insisted that the Federal Government must explain to Nigerians why and how it mortgaged their existence to a single company that has made what no manufacturing companies with thousands of employees can make in one month.
Olayinka said “Ekiti State under Governor Fayose is managing its finances perfectly well without the Treasury Single Account, which is obviously aimed at enriching a few individuals at the expense of Nigerians.”
He advised President Buhari to urgently de-brief Lai Mohammed so that he will operate normally as a spokesperson of the government and not APC propagandist.
Olayinka said: “At 63, Lai Mohammed should know that speaking for the federal government of Nigeria is different from speaking for the APC, which he did by always tying corn to his anus while dancing naked at the market place.
“He should know that opposition is a major ingredient of democracy and any democratic government devoid of opposition must be ready to embrace anarchy.
“It is therefore the duty of Nigerians, especially the National Assembly to ask questions on the administration of the resources being held in trust for them by those in power and it is the responsibility of government at all levels to explain.
“When a man like Lai Mohammed, who is employed and being paid with tax payers’ money now chooses to insult Nigerians just because they ask questions, sane minds should pity the President who employed such a loquacious person to speak for his government.
“As for Governor Fayose, he will continue to uphold the truth and speak in the overall interest of Nigerians, not minding the offensive odour emanating from the propaganda infected mouths of Lai Mohammed and his ilk.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

I am still finding it difficult to believe that my state Ekiti, could produce people who are as disresectful as this. It is very disheartning
ReplyDeleteSo because he is an elderly person, if he says God punish you,you will say thank you sir. You should know when somebody out there is insulting the sensibilities of Nigerians pls.
DeleteAll this Igbo youth will never change! I don't know why you are commenting on a platform like this when intellectuals are commenting. You never see anything good in Buhari's government so anyone that insult him and his cabinet, you praise sing. Continue, there was a time Fani Kayode insult the whole Igbo race and even insult Ojukwu and his wife, then he was your enemy, now cos he see nothing good in the government of the day he has become your hero championing the Biafra course. It's going to be Fayose's turn to insult you people soon. Fayose is a bastard and he wakes his father by kicking from the bed just like you do too. Fayose will meet his Waterloo soon like he met it during Obasanjo's regime during his poultry gate now it's Ekiti gate.
