Bandits threat to kidnap President Buhari is laughable - Lai Mohammed

Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed on Wednesday July 27, reacted to threats by bandits to kidnap President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna state.

 

The threat was passed off by bandits in a video shared last weekend. 

 

Reacting to this after a Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting presided over by President Buhari at the State House, Abuja, Mohammed said the terrorists were spreading propaganda. He also added that the threat is laughable. 

 

On threats to impeach Buhari if the rising insecurity is not addressed within six weeks, the Minister said; 

 

“We are doing everything possible to ensure that the whole nation is well secured and it’s a matter of time to see results”.

 Superstar footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo has stated his belief that Ralf Rangnick can do a good job at Old Trafford but insisted that the Manchester United interim boss needs more time. The German tactician was employed by the Red Devils until the end of the season after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked following a run of humiliating losses in November. But Ragnick, 63, admitted he fears he does not have the time or influence to solve the club’s troubles before his job as interim manager ends in May.  Rangnick faces a toxic atmosphere at Old the club with morale low as up to half the squad want to leave the club with some on expiring contracts and the dressing room divided into cliques,  leaving United seventh in the Premier League.
