Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed has said the Nigerian government will resolve the rift between the Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige and the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.
Mohammed said this while briefing journalists at the end of the weekly Federal Executive Council (FEC), on Wednesday.
“What happened between the minister and party chairman will be resolved.
“Two weeks ago, we inaugurated a campaign against fake news and that is one of the most dangerous phenomena we have today.
“We don’t know who said what and until we know and the ministers confirmed these statements credited to them, it is a difficult time to comment. I can assure you that if there is any problem between the party chairman and any of our ministers, it will be resolved.”
The APC Chairman had asked Ngige and Hadi Sirika, Minister of State for Aviation, to inaugurate boards under their ministries or face disciplinary action.
But responding, Ngige said he would not inaugurate the board of the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF) because of fraud.
