Atiku won't see what Buhari has done since he lives in Dubai -Lai Mohammed
  • Lai Mohammed criticizes Atiku and asserts that no amount of deceit can undermine Buhari’s accomplishments
  • Atiku said Buhari had not done anything for Nigeria in eight years.

Lai Mohammed, minister of information, says Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), cannot see the achievements of the current administration because he lives his entire life in Dubai.

Atiku had earlier said President Muhammadu Buhari had not done anything for Nigeria in eight years.

RNN had earlier reported that the former vice president was to have spent the majority of his time in the Middle Eastern nation after losing the presidential race in 2019.

More so, the minister stated that Atiku should not be the one to accuse the current administration of doing nothing while speaking at the seventh installment of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration’s scorecard series on Monday in Abuja.

“During his recent campaign in Akure, the former VP was quoted as saying the APC had not done anything for Nigeria in eight years,” Mohammed said.

“What a preposterous statement from
somebody who should know. I guess we can excuse His Excellency the former vice-president who, until recently, had fully relocated to Dubai, thus losing touch with Nigeria.

“Before this administration came into office, all the five local government areas in Adamawa’s northern senatorial district were effectively under the control of the Boko Haram terrorists.

“All state institutions, the local government administration, the police, the judiciary, schools, hospitals, and markets had been sacked. Today, not an inch of these local governments in Adamawa, the home state of the former vice-president, is under the control of terrorists.

“All institutions of state have relocated back and are operational. All emirs and chiefs have returned to their palaces.

“You can also see the irony of someone who held the number two position in the country for all of eight years but could not positively impact his own hometown, state, or region now condemning an administration that has made it possible for him to even access his hometown — anytime he flies in from his new hometown of Dubai!”

Lai Mohammed continued by saying that the country as a whole has benefited from Buhari’s leadership.

“No amount of fallacious soap box rhetorics can change this fact,” the minister said.
