The Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has described those involved in the destruction of public facilities and infrastructures as terrorists.
This is as he blamed such unpatriotic persons who are in the habit of destroying public infrastructures for the inability of Nigerians to fully enjoy the rewards of government investment in public infrastructures.
He also praised the President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government for its ability to invest massively in the nation’s infrastructural development despite the economic challenges and paucity of funds.
