Federal government has dismissed claims that it had been overwhelmed by the widespread insecurity in the country.
The minister of information and culture, Lai Mohammed, made this known to newsmen after the Federal Executive Council meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja
Mohammed maintained that the terrorists, who attacked a military base in Birnin-Gwari, Kaduna State, on Sunday, were repelled by troops and suffered heavy casualties.
The Minister, however, blamed the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, for laying the foundation for the hunger currently ravaging Nigerians.
