Minister of Information and
Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said that the Federal Government, under
President Muhammadu Buhari, won’t be distracted by the politics of 2019.
Mohammed said, instead, the next
general election was putting pressure on the government to do more for the
people of Nigeria.
He said the government’s
performance would speak for it come 2019.
Speaking in a meeting with some
journalists in Abuja, the government’s spokesman also noted that Governor
Willie Obiano’s re-election in an All Progressives Congress (APC)-led Federal
Government was a further demonstration of President Muhammadu Buhari’s
commitment to free, fair and credible election.
“It is not true that his visit to
the South East is to market 2019. It is not by visiting a particular place that
you show that you are running for 2019”, he said.
“What will determine your
campaign in 2019 is your performance while in office and I can say as a member
of the Federal Executive Council (FEC), we are very careful that projects are
spread equally across the country and that the interest of every zone is taken
into considerations so that nobody can say ‘I have been marginalised or
shortchanged”.
