"We’ve taken Nigeria out of hell, nobody should pray return of PDP, we can't go back to Egypt" — Lai Mohammed

The Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, in an interactive session with newsmen in Lagos at the weekend, says "Nigerians shouldn't pray for a return of PDP, that PDP took the country to hell".

The minister also said the Buhari led government has brought the country out of hell.

When asked if he is in any way afraid that the APC led government might not go beyond 2019, Lai said:

Now, as to whether we are afraid that the PDP would win, I can tell you absolutely, we couldn’t even contemplate it because it would be tragedy for Nigeria to fall back into the hands of PDP.

Look, we have very painstakingly taken this country through hell, I mean, they dropped us in hell, and we are taking you people out of hell, we can’t come back to Egypt. No, I am serious, it is not about APC, it is about President Muhammadu Buhari, it’s like the kind of revelations that are coming out, the kind of rot, you want those people to come back and preside over the affairs of Nigeria again.

"Now, let me ask you for instance what would happen to the investigations that have been held if the PDP should win in 2019? They would be swept under the carpet". he said.
