A former ally of President Muhammadu Buhari and a chieftain of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Alhaji Buba Galadima, on Wednesday, lampooned the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, over his recent outburst against opposition parties.
Recall that the minister had, last Sunday, told the opposition parties to stop complaining about the 2023 Presidential election and accept defeat, insisting that the claim that the presidential election was rigged was fraudulent.

Also recall that a statement issued by his Special Assistant (Media), Mr. Segun Adeyemi, the minister had said that both Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) and his People’s Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, lost the election due to overconfidence and complacency.
However, speaking on the matter while appearing on Arise Television programme, on Wednesday, Buba Galadima lambasted the minister over his claim, stating that he was only appointed to reap where he did not sow.
Accrding to Galadima, “Lai Mohammed knows nothing about the feelings and condition of the people. He does not know the conditions of Nigerians.
“He has always been appointed to reap where he did not sow. He brought himself into office so he is allowed to say what he wants to say.
“A date is waiting for him to put his scorecard on the table after serving as a minister for eight years.”
