Outgoing Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has stated that former President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari is aware that some Nigerians nicknamed him “Baba Go Slow.”

According to the Minister, Buhari was given the name incorrectly because he is “tolerant and a democrat who allows his ministers to discharge their duties without undue interference.”

During a send-off party organized in Mohammed’s honor by the Board of the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) on Sunday, he lamented that Buhari’s government was constantly in the crosshairs of everyone.

He however commended the President for his tolerance in the face of insults from individuals, radio stations, and television stations.

The Minister said: “We are always in the bad books of everybody. In the bad book of governments because they think we are too soft and in the bad books of naysayers because they say we are too strict.

“A station (Tv or Radio) will abuse the government for a whole year, nobody will raise a finger. But if you try to impose a fine or shut the station down, the whole human rights family will now say, fire Lai Mohammed.

“I must give credit to Mr President. I have never seen a President as tolerant as President Muhammadu Buhari. He has never said that the Minister of Information and Culture should go and close this station, even when they are abusing him.

“One day, I was surprised in the cabinet when the President said, ‘I know they call me Baba Go Slow’.”
