Lai Mohammed: We Have Uncovered 476 Online Sites Set Up To Fight Govermnent by adenigga(m): 7:35pm On May 17, 2021 |
The Federal Government says it has uncover about 476 online publication sites dedicated to daily churning out of fake news to fight the government. The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed disclosed this on Monday in Abuja when he received officials of the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations on a courtesy visit
Mohammed said the latest of the hatchet jobs by the traducers was the fake publication on President Muhammadu Buhari’s mental status.
“It will amaze you that recently we unveiled almost 476 online publication sites that are dedicated to daily engaging in churning out fake news to fight the government.
“The latest which I found ridiculous is the one that said days ago, that they had information that when Mr President was in the UK the last time, he was advised to step down because he could not even recognise members of his immediate family.
“I begin to wonder how they can go this far, simply because they know that people are gullible and they will make the fake news to go viral,’’ he said.
The minister noted that fake news is taking a new dimension and threatening the existence of the country.
He said the debilitating effects of the menace was not only on the government but on every Nigerian.
Mohammed noted that many marriages had been wrecked as a result of fake news, particularly through the social media while people had lost their lives and many others committed suicide.
To buttress his position, the minister recalled a recent report where fake news almost led to killing of 600 applicants by scammers.
“A young man sent out letters to 600 people to enlist into Nigerian Army and collected N10,000 from each of them.
“He asked them to report at the Okitipupa Army Barracks in Ondo state on a particular day to collect their letters of appointment.
“At the same time, he alerted the Commandant of the Barrack that Boko Haram insurgents were coming to invade the barrack on the same day,’’ he said.
Mohammed said his ministry had spearheaded the campaign against fake news years back before the menace got so bad.
He said the NIPR had critical role to play in ensuring the fight against fake news.
“This is where your body comes in because you have a powerful platform to ensure that the menace of fake news is confronted squarely.
“Regrettably, however, members of this institute have been found wanting, they have most times place pecuniary interest and motives above patriotism and nationalism
“You will recall the sad incidence of the P&ID saga.
“It was a member of this institute, a firm of PR consultants that was hired to give impression to the world that Nigeria entered into agreement with P&ID and renege and have to pay about nine billion dollars.
“It took the combine interventions of this ministry and the Office of the Attorney-General of the Federation to go to the UK to change the narrative to prove that the purported contract was a huge scam,’’ he said.
The minister admonished members of the institute to place nationalism and patriotism over and above pecuniary gains in the discharge of their duties.
He also assured NIPR of the support of the ministry in its proposed plan to use its platform to engender stakeholders interaction and engagement on national security and cohesion.
Earlier, Malam Mukhtar Sirajo, the National President and Chairman, Governing Council of NIPR said they were willing to work with the Federal Government to engender peace and unity.
He also seized the opportunity to invite the minister to the Annual General Meeting of the Institute holding in Bauchi in May.

The only gullible cankerworms are those in support of this evil gov't & their blame games. Imagine the minister for information noting Nigerians that they've unveiled 476 sites that they claim are being used to peddle fake news against Apc gov't... But it remains difficult for same gov't to trace locations & accounts of those fulani kidnappers uses in receiving ransom. Damn this nation, the Giant of Africa has drown in mediocrity..

Gumi is being seen openly frolicking with well armed terrorists using arms and ammunition the clueless govt this fool is subserving but they refused to track in order to eliminate them because they are all in league.
Bandits/Fulanis/BH terrorists are on a free fall with abducting and killing innocent citizens even making videos, loading it on the internet and maintaining communication with govt.With what means you may ask?
The means of communication must be registered to a NIN, BVN, network communication service provider I guess? Yet all these mysteries cant be unravelled but the silly government is coming out with exact numbers of internet websites fighting it
Why can't the government do what is right and expected of it as a responsible government? Why is it obsessed with hate speeech/social media regulation when it is the terrorist in chief? As for this Lai Mohammed, he can continue spewing lies and all his nonsense.Karma knows how best to pay back. 7 Likes |
