Addressing Buhari As Major General Is Abuse Of Press Freedom – Lai Mohammed

Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has said it is an abuse of press freedom for journalists to address President Muhammadu Buhari as a Major General.

Minister stated this on Tuesday when executives of the International Press Institute (IPI), Nigeria chapter, paid a courtesy visit to him at his office in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

According to Mohammed, Nigeria has one of the most vibrant and free presses in the world. He stated that the media has no reason to fear the government in Nigeria.

He charged IPI Nigeria to take the issues of ethics, credibility, and fake news seriously.
