Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture, has said he is being haunted by his role as former National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Mohammed, in an interview with TV host Osasu Igbinedion, said his former job as spokesperson of the then opposition APC made him appear as a liar and propagandist to Nigerians.
“I think I carried two major burdens. The first burden I carried is that I was the face of opposition for almost a decade and I think quite a big section of the internet has not forgiven me for the role I played in the coming of this government.

“Many of them hold me personally i was responsible for the defeat of the PDP.
“I am flattered by that but the truth of that it was Nigerians that wanted a new government and I was just one of the instrument.”
On allegations of lies and propaganda levelled against him, Mohammed said, “I have always asked anybody to come out and say Alhaji Lai Mohammed, this is what you said at this point and we found it to be a lie and nobody so far has come out to say anything.
“You can fault me on emotions but you can never fault me on facts and figures,” said the minister.
