2023  Adamawa Guber Election: Why President Buhari  Didn’t  Get Involved- Lai Muhammed

President Muhammadu Buhari did not get involved in the imbroglio recorded in Adamawa state with regard to its 2023 governorship election because it was strictly the responsibility of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC  to handle such a matter, Minister of Information and Culture,  Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said.

He added that it is not in Buhari’s character to micromanage government institutions.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned the minister said this while talking to   State House correspondents  after the FEC meeting in Abuja on Wednesday.

‘I don’t think that this government has ever intervened in the way the Independent National Electoral Commission conducts its elections.

So, there’s no need for us to intervene. It was an entirely an INEC matter and INEC handled it.

The chairman of INEC is in charge of all employees in INEC and he’s handling it. So, what do you want the government to do? he submitted.

Mohammed  also argued that he did nothing wrong by   accusing the LP  presidential candidate , Peter Obi of committing treason   saying, ‘if his running mate had called for insurrection and he did not react, he was guilty as charged’.

Alhaji Lai Muhammed also added that  his recent trip to  the United States was to balance what he called the skewed reports on the 2023 general election, which he asserted was ‘the most transparent, freest and authentic ever held despite the effort of the opposition to delegitimize or discourage the election’- Team@orientactualmags.com
