Fayose describes minister as Liar-General of the federation

Fayose said this while reacting to Mohammed’s claim that some treasury looters are sponsors of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The Information Minister, on Sunday, September 17, 2017, said IPOB’s agenda is to sabotage the Buhari administration, by pretending to be fighting for the rights of the people of the South-East.

Mohammed also said the group is being sponsored by those he called the coalition of the politically disgruntled and the treasury looters.

In his reaction, Fayose called on the minister to reveal the names of all the IPOB sponsors to Nigerians.

The Governor also said “In the history of his lying career, if he (Lai Mohammed) is able to read through his past comments and juxtapose them with his present comments, he will realize the contradiction that he has become.”

Fayose also called on the international community to investigate the alleged human rights violation by the Army in the South-East.

He also said “On June 10, 2013, Lai Mohammed spoke against the proscription of Boko Haram, saying that it stifled the press and tampered with the fundamental human rights of Nigerians. He also spoke in support of true federalism and restructuring of Nigeria. But today, in defense of President Muhammadu Buhari’s government, everything Lai Mohammed supported then, he is now against and what he was against then, he now supports.

“It is shameful that Lai Mohammed now runs speedily to defend the lion king and his autocratic government, so that he won’t be devoured and in the process of trying to avoid being sacked, he is manufacturing lies like pure water.”

Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari has reportedly signed a presidential proclamation proscribing the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
