Lai Mohammed-I do not have covid 19

While the media is buzzing with reports that COVID-19 hits Nigeria’s Presidential Villa, with notable personalities such as Garba Shehu, Lai Mohammed, Other Buhari’s Appointees, Permanent Secretary Contracting the Virus.

In a recent development, the Minister of Information and Culture of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Lai Mohammed, has refuted claims that he is down with the virus.

He dismissed speculations that he had contracted COVID-19 and was being treated for the virus.

He decried the online publication, which had been “latched on to by some mainstream media, once again highlights the uphill task the government faces in our campaign to stamp out fake news and misinformation.”

A statement issued yesterday in Abuja by his Special Assistant on Media, Segun Adeyemi, stated:

“The attention of the office of the Honourable Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has been drawn to a report making the rounds that he has contracted the COVID-19 virus and that he is now in isolation, where he is receiving treatment. For the record, the minister does not have COVID-19, hence he is neither in isolation nor receiving treatment anywhere. A journalism mantra says ‘when in doubt, leave it out.’ Also embedded in the code of ethics for journalists are the basic principles of truthfulness and accuracy, among others. The report in question did not meet those standards.”

He went further to highlight the Minister's activities for the week, while stating that the Minister is fully vaccinated.
