The Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy has reeled out the benefits Nigeria stands to gain from the National Digital Innovation and Entrepreneurship Centre.
The groundbreaking ceremony of the centre located in Abuja was held on Thursday, where the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr. Isa Pantami, hailed President Muhammadu Buhari for his support on the project and the approval of the building.
Pantami said the President approved the building of the centre on the 11th of November 2020 during the FEC meeting after he made a detailed presentation to the Council on the project and successfully answered around 22 questions in the robust debate that followed the presentation.
Bakare claimed that his comment during an interview with Dele Momodu, Publisher of Ovation Magazine was misquoted.
The clergyman was reported to have said Nigerians are feeling disappointed because they expected the Buhari-led government to bring about change.
He was quoted to have said Nigerians appeared to have been shortchanged by the APC-led government.
Dismissing the reports, Bakare explained that he only said Nigerians are entitled to say they are disappointed, amid the competing demands.
Appearing on Arise Television, the clergyman said, “The truth of the matter is, that was an Instagram live interview that lasted for over 2 hours and the audio and the video will be available, I’m sure the publisher of Ovation Media, Bashorun Dele Momodu, can make that available to the public.
