Momoh had during the build up to the 2015 general elections called on Nigerians to stone the APC government if they don’t leave up to expectations.
Speaking with The Sun, the former minister said Nigerians were already stoning the president despite his monumental achievements.
He said, “We are in a democracy. As Minister of Information, I gave Nigerians information; one, to satisfy your need for information; secondly, to give you the information to do what you like to do with it.“So, people who are saying that APC has done nothing have a right through the information they have to achieve the aims they want, but that does not reduce from the fact that objectively, APC has done something.
“Whatever happens, I said stone us if we
don’t perform, but some people are stoning us, not that we didn’t
perform, but because they are in opposition and cannot appreciate that
we are preforming. In the area of security, nobody would say that we
have not tried.
“Nobody will say that the challenges we
have in the Northeast, Middle Belt, South-south, Southeast, Southwest
and even in the Northwest, are not being attended to. In the area of
agriculture, nobody can say that we have not attended to eating what we
grow, and growing what we want to eat. We came out of recession. There
are a lot of things we have done.”
