Group accuses minister of lying about Nigeria’s security situation
The Arewa Youth Vanguard has berated the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed for not telling Nigerians the truth about the security situation of the country especially the ongoing fight against insecurity in the Northern part.
It would be recalled that Information Minister Lai Mohammed had in a recent joint press conference with security chiefs hinted that the worst security challenges in the country were over.

The minister was also quoted saying that: “As far as the daunting security challenges we face are concerned, we can tell you that the worst is over. Never again will terrorists and bandits and their cohorts hold sway in our country.
The group in a statement on Friday declared that the claim by the
Minister of information was not only far from reality, but also a mockery on the Nigerian populace which deserves much more than what it was being fed with.
The group therefore called on the Minister and heads of security apparatus in the country to bring experts to a dialogue table and chart a new cause in fighting security challenges.
