No Diversion Of Public Funds Under Buhari’s Administration – Mohammed

The Federal Government on Monday dismissed the alleged fraud in the Treasury Single Account (TSA) and the rumoured diversion of the TSA funds to bankroll elections in Bayelsa and Kogi.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media, Mr Segun Adeyemi, in Abuja on Monday,described the allegation as a contrived distraction.

Mohammed said if those behind the accusation had allowed themselves some measure of honesty, they would have realised that there had not and there would be no such impunity under President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.

S’East APC: Biafra Agitation Will Scuttle Igbo Presidency

In reaction to the spate of mass action by Pro-Biafra agitators, South-East All Progressives Congress (APC) has appealed to Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) and similar groups to stop their war drum, as it could scuttle the quest for Nigeria president of Igbo extraction in 2023.

Spokesman of South-East APC Leadership Caucus, Mr. Osita Okechukwu, made the appeal in a statement on Sunday.

Part of the statement reads: “Whereas we agree that there is gross unemployment, discontent and despondency among youths in the land; however it is not peculiar to the South East alone. The gross unemployment is nationwide and would be addressed holistically; luckily our son distinguished senator Chris Ngige is the minister in charge of employment” Okechukwu said.
