The Federal government says it has credible evidence
pointing to the fact that the main opposition party, PDP and its presidential
candidate, Atiku Abubakar, are planning to sabotage the Buhari-led
administration. Lai Mohammed's comment comes few days after the Nigerian Army
raised alarm that some persons are working with foreign powers to stop the
inauguration ceremony on May 29th.
Speaking at the 2019 edition of his Annual Ramadan Lecture
held at his home town Oro, Kwara yesterday Saturday May 18th, Lai Mohammed said
“As you are aware, a few days ago we raised the alarm that
either by themselves or via their proxies, the PDP and its presidential
candidate are doing everything possible to sabotage the Buhari Administration.
Our interventions are based on credible evidence, and no
government, with the kind of evidence that we have, of plans to subvert the
power of the state, attack the nation’s economic live wire and generally
unleash mayhem on the polity, will keep quiet.
The security agencies are all alert to their
responsibilities and will not sit by and allow anyone to reverse the gains of
our democracy under any guise''.
