Segun Adeyemi, Abuja: The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, says contrary to the belief in certain quarters, the Executive and Legislative Arms of Government are working harmoniously to improve the social and economic well-being of the citizenry.





The Minister made the remarks in Abuja on Wednesday when he received the Senate Committee on Media and Public Affairs, led by its Chairman, Senator Aliyu Sabi Abdullahi, on a courtesy visit to his office.

“If the spokesman of the Senate wants to meet the spokesman of Government, that says a lot about the trust, understanding and also the confidence between the two arms of government. This visit will also show the world that the so-called feud between the Executive Arm of Government and the Legislative Arm is only the figment of their own imagination,” he said. ‎

Alhaji Mohammed restated the commitment of the present administration to ensuring good governance, providing adequate security and revamping the economy in order to deliver the change that Nigerians are yearning for.

“It proves once again that this government, each arm of the government, is working in tandem. They recognize security, the economy and good governance as the sole pillars of any government,” he said.

The Minister said upon assumption of office, he adopted creative and pragmatic approach to bridge the communication gap between the government and the people in order to deepen democracy and inspire trust and confidence among the people.

“We realize the importance of information to the deepening and sustenance of democracy and to that extent, we have evolved means to ensure that there is no communication gap between the government and those that are governed. We put people right in the centre of our communication strategy. We know that the moment that gap exist then you create opportunity for mischief makers, misconception, half truths and downright falsehood,” he said.

Alhaji Mohammed identified town hall meetings as a deliberate strategy adopted by the government to communicate with the people directly to inform them about the policies and programmes of the government and at the same time get feedback on their perception of government.

He disclosed that the government will soon hold a summit on National Rebirth, Values and Ethics during which the National Re-orientation Campaign, tagged Change Begins with Me, will be launched.

In his remarks, Senator Abdullahi said though the challenges confronting the nation are surmountable, there is the need for greater value re-orientation.‎

He sought the collaboration of the Minister in the efforts to promote actions that will bring about positive change in Nigeria. ‎

“As managers of the information and communication space of two critical arms of this democratic government, permit me to note that we need, more than ever before, to proactively work to promote and canvass for the urgent need to ensure genuine and sincere actions anchored on rule of law, due diligence and due process.

”In doing this, we must promote confidence building through genuine co-creation, co-action, co-operation, collaboration and co-ordination,” he said.

Well, facts available support this assertion by Lai Muhammed:

1. Ministers were nominated and were all screened successfully.

2. All screened ministers were approved despite some noise from the sore losers.

3. The budget, despite padding by some criminals among them, was eventually passed as desired by the president.

4. 2 bills from the presidency is being passed without any much rancour.

I guess the trial of Saraki is the only reason people think there is no harmony between the Executive and Legislature which is also normal thinking. But I see it as a good development in our system that you should answer for your crime irrespective of your position.

Cordial relationship between both arms will benefit Nigeria at the end of the day.

N

when someone wants to make a statement and you hear Lai...

you just start laughing


see the picture below me

Yes, that is what the government is all about. When there is cordial relationship in the arms of government, there is tend to be steady progress in every areas. Ee cannot wait to see the desired change we are clamouring for

oshea.....

OK.... We don hear Mr. Lai

oga linus.....

When u have a friend who always lıe to u, there ıss tendency that u won't believe hım even when he sayss the truth... I no call person name ooo

Mtchew. Who dey talk?

Yeah, they are indeed. Just like Water and Oil. Meaning Saraki and Buhari/APC are on the same-page too

The truth is that Legislature dey from page, Executive dey center page while Judiciary dey back page.

Still wondering why Lai Muhammed talks like a Toddler

What of Judiciary?
Dem dey page 2..?

Schemings, bribery and up turning verdicts?

Its ramadan period. He should avoid talking much cos he might lie.

Same page of bad governance

Is that why the senate president is being tried at the CCT for the same offence over which the APC National leader, Tinubu was freed in "error"
Who is fooling who?

And what happens to judiciary, the last hope of a common man as its been left out. Buhari had stated that the only challenge he might face is the judiciary and am not surprised because a dictator will always oppose every view from the judiciary.

Ok

Lie lie lie sheep,
have you any lie,
yes sir yes sir 3 bags full.
one for my master
one for myself
and one for all the zombies in Nigeria.

useless liar. FG just arraigned Saraki and Ekweremadu for forgery just almost the same time he was lying and spewing out this gibberish. Nonsense

...and the lie continues....from oga Lie-nus.

Buddy, the selective/biased nature of the bolded, a big NO NO for any serious minded government that really wants to deal with corruption, for to be biased is to be corrupt.

Unnecessary harmony between the arms is not even needed so that the people can get the best from governance.
