Lai Mohammed, the minister of information and culture, has been charged by the Labour Party (LP) with attempting to spread false information among Nigerians.
Remember how the Minister had criticized the Labour Party and the PDP for their response to President Muhammadu Buhari’s appraisal of the 2023 presidential election?
Buhari said opposition parties were luxuriating in the ecstasy of false hope while the All Progressives Congress (APC) was working hard to retain the presidency last Thursday during a meeting with APC governors in Abuja.

Atiku Abubakar of the PDP and Peter Obi of the LP, he claimed, lost to Bola Tinubu, the incoming president, due to a combination of “overconfidence, complacency, and bad tactical moves.”
The president’s remark was attacked by the opposition parties, who asserted that the APC had been given an unfair advantage in the election.
However, Lai Mohammed urged the parties who had been wronged to end their never-ending complaints about the election.
Mohammed claimed in a statement released on Sunday that the president’s explanation on why the opposition lost the 2023 elections was unarguable.
The Labour Party responded to the minister’s assertion by claiming that only the blind would accept the results of the 2023 presidential election.

“We would rather not join issues with a man who is famous for constantly prescribing doses of expired and ineffectual propaganda to Nigerians,” The Cable quoted the Labour Party as saying.
“His ill-fated and hugely failed trip to the United Kingdom and the United States where he attempted to redeem the grossly battered democratic credentials of this present administration; spending millions of taxpayers’ money to defend an indefensible action is yet another tragedy of President Buhari’s eight years leadership.
“It is only the blind that will continue to insist that the 2023 presidential election, which was massively rigged, was free, fair, and credible.
“As we have said earlier, the opposition political parties lost the election because the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC jettisoned the electoral act, having not uploaded the result from the polling unit in real time as promised and, in so doing, created room for riggers to have a field day.
