Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has reacted to what he described as the erroneous media reporting of his post-Federal Executive Council (FEC) press briefing on Wednesday, saying he never said President Muhammadu Buhari is to work from home henceforth.
In a statement issued in Abuja, Mohamed said the president only decided to work from home on Wednesday, not that he has decided to work from home henceforth.
He said the headlines in a section of the media, “Buhari to now work from home – Lai Mohammed”, is a misrepresentation of his statement at the briefing.
Quoting verbatim the relevant section of his briefing, Mohammed said: “He (the President) wanted to rest today and he asked the VP (Yemi Osinbajo) to preside over today’s meeting. In addition, he also asked that all his files be taken home to him and he will be working from home today”.
