Lai Mohammed Argues A Buhari 2019 Will Cost Less Financially

Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, believes President Buhari does not have to run an expensive campaign to win in 2019 as his administration has performed.

While speaking to The Cable in an interview he said:

“INEC is the statutory body saddled with the responsibility of monitoring campaign expenditure, but one thing I can assure you is that for us, 2019 election will probably be the least expensive for us, because we have performed, we have delivered.

“Just talking to you now, we feed 8.2 million pupils everyday, one free meal a day, they have parents. I just told you what we’ve done in infrastructure.

“I was about to tell you what we have achieved in tackling insecurity. When we came in in 2015, 20 out of 27 local governments in Borno state alone were under the influence of Boko Haram, today not a single local government in the entire northeast.”
