Lai: This government has a clear-cut agenda

Lai Mohammed, minister of information and culture, says the current administration has a clear-cut agenda.

Speaking on the sidelines of the 12th edition of the All Nigerian Editors Conference (ANEC), holding in Port Harcourt, Mohammed said President Muhammadu Buhari’s government had enough political will and the technical know-how that would change the fortune of the Nigerian economy.

“The government has a clear-cut agenda; it also has the will to drive a system that will lead to economic prosperity for the country,’’ he said.

He said the theme of the conference: ‘Economic Diversification: Agriculture as Option for a Prosperous Nigeria’, shows that the media is indeed an agenda setter.

He said agriculture is the “surest” way to the economic prosperity of the nation, expressing the hope that the conference would produce ideas that would form part of the government’s programme on agriculture.

More than 300 editors are attending the conference.
