The statement added that the loan was to cover tickets and travel expenses of a five-member delegation being led by the Minister to Beijing, China, for a Conference on Tourism for Development.
“The loan being requested for is for the ministry to meet up its obligations to enable the Minister and members of his delegation attend the all important conference. The loan is not meant for the minister alone as personal expenses, but for the expenses of all members of the delegation. The Conference is being organised by the United Nations World Tourism Organisation in conjunction with the Government of the People’s Republic of China, under the overall theme “Tourism for Peace and Development. It will feature amongst others, discussions on major issues for sustainable development including the contribution of Tourism to poverty reduction and peace. The conference is a veritable platform to develop synergy and partnership with players in the global Tourism Industry which will go a long way in boosting our drive to diversify the Nigerian economy,” it stated.

God will expose all these shenanigans and hypocrites and their backers. GEJ hinted of removing fuel subsidy;they staged the mother of all protests tagged "OCCUPY NIGERIA." Soyinka,Bakare, Femi Falana, even Seun Kuti and the rest of them (the vocal southwest). They've all lost their voices. Hypocrites.
Talking bullshit
Bollocks
In dis same Nigeria? Lol
...merited happiness
Lai Lai
Loan indeed, you are deceiving yourself Mr lai , where in the public service rules or financial regulations gives a minister power to borrow money from a ministry or agency of government. Money for which is budgeted for some purpose. He should resign immediately
Well, 13m is still much for the trip. only if you guys are going forever.

Baba is broke he needs some cash!
Issokay seen, now we know. Linda take note!
Like I saw this and the first thing that came to my mind was the fact that all these people have going for one conference or the other up and down and still NOTHING IS WORKING IN THE COUNTRY so please Mr Mohammed when you get back from your trip after using 13.12 million Naira that would have solved a little portion of the problems of Nigerians will you come back home and do something about the unrest caused by book haram? Will you solve our security issues? How exactly will you fully utilize this 13.12 million? For five people to go and sit down and listen to someone else speak? I am soooo damn angry! When will we start doing things the right way? Why can't these people have the fear of the almighty God and do what they were placed in their different strategic places to do? The president does not spend up to a week in his country and things are getting worse everyday. All you people do is take from those who can't even feed themselves and travel the world. My God will judge all of you in due time. Have we not suffered enough because of the lack of proper judgment from these leaders? Our leaders are the highest paid in the world! What does that tell you? Their pot bellies are almost exploding and they eat and keep appearances and sleep and travel all day. Rubbish!

Please post my comment you have never posted my comments. This one must be posted.
Na so. As Nigeria is now a tourist attraction with all the eish we are dealing with @ the moment, the Minister thinks the most important thing to do is to attend tourism conference. Laughable
Mr Lai Mohammed, THE POINT IS; you do not NEED a five man delegation to travel for a United Nations conference. that amount is quite exorbitant especially in these hard times, by the way I thought Forex is scarce, why waste it on a 5 man team when at most u could just travel with two people... We know u all must take first class tickets, but abeg, reduce the delegation to save costs for the nation..
Is the NBC is a bank that gives loans to individuals? If Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information needs money to travel on his official duties, does him need a loan to do that? Doesn't his ministry have a budget? This is how ministers indirectly collect money from their department and agencies under their ministries. This CORRUPTION in the highest order! It must be condemned by all meaning Nigerians.
Useless people!
Thief,Ole.
Oga minister how much for ticket? Thief man
Story for the gods
Nice one! I clap for you

So it's true after all👎
Mr minister that conference is totally irrelevant to us right now. We do not even have the right security or environment to talk anything tourism, we have bigger problems to contend with at the moment. Besides if u go for the conference what will the minister of tourism do, or the boss of NTDC?? Pls u guys have a heart and stop all this unnecessary spending. Nigerians are really suffering. Enough already. Haba!
Thank God there's explanation for the leaked letter.
Such explanation could never be found in formal administration. #Changeinprog
They know they are governing the fools called Nigerians so....they know the fools will keep Suffering and Smiling so...
Nawa oooo
13m for what? People are suffering and you are galivanting about.
He's a mad man for requesting such an amount.. Whenever he opens his mouth, the first words that comes out are lies upon lies.. Criminal!!!
Okkk
In a sane environment, this man will be rendering his resignation but here in Nigeria it's not so.. We are so fantastically corrupt. From Buhari to the least of us.
There is problem in this land. We are doomed. Must all of curropt in this country?
God punish you sir
This guy's name reps him so accurately if spelled correctly "lie" mohammad
Say/do one thing n contradict it

Why taking him so long to release this statement. That man cannot be trusted with Nigerians hard earn money. #FatherOfLies
*Comment by: BelieveAll.com *
Its sad how these people keep telling us lies, as if we are fools.
I'm short of words!
I'm so so angry, I can't even express myself right now!
I like your post. You hit the nail on the head. All these politicians are only interested in flying all over the world with their girlfriends or trying out chics in each country they visit. They also look for every opportunity to get travel expenses so they can pocket some. Is there a honest Nigerian politician? Probably a 1,000,000:1 odds. Linda, thanks for publishing the initial article; it seems these politicians have people that monitor blogs like yours.
exactly first Anonymous..... I agree with you 100 percent..
Addition, if they like they should travel the world, one day monkey go market, he not go return.
Nigeria is going through alot right now.Must he attend?
It shows insensitivity to Nigeria's current predicament. We dont have government in this country yet.They only fight for their pockets.
Stupid man, 13 million for travelling expenses. And masses are suffering. Na 2019 go judge.
Apc is just confuse I swear.
Hmmmmm. It's well and if he like he borrows frm CBN.
Kia 13.12million for 5 people, I weep for our country they are all the same lieing thieves. Imagine this is so so sad.
This is a typical cases of "pot calling kettle black" 13.12 million for "LOGISTICS" Please!!!!!! ..... with all the talk LAI MOHAMMED does he could have come up with a better convincing story to cover his loot!!!!! Same china PMB went cap in hand to request for loan to fund his budget!!!!!!! you want N13.12 Naira to visit on "official trip" hmmmmmm 2019 is not far oh!!!!!...... The story we hear everyday is that there is no money to run government that Jonathan stole all the money in naija........ these guy need to realize that NIGERIANS HOWEVER PATIENT ARE NOT STUPID!!!!!!!!!
Am totally disappointed in dis country. God please come and take control.
Absolutely RUBBISH 13.12 milli for just a week travel? Dis pple are just thieves WTF???
We Nigerians are good in wasting the resources we have. Must he travel to China? What are we going to benefit from this wasteful trip.
A whole 13 million for only 5 people in china??? Haba Lai Mohammed.. stop lying! 😒
I wonder oooooo fantastically corrupt
SMH. What a pity. I know we can not continue like this,these people are liars and thieves.
On point. It's high time Nigerians start holding their leaders accountable. Let's throw away our tribal and religious sentiments and hold them accountable. Enough is enough!
How wil such amt of moni given 2 u nd ur delegates 2 lavish over dere improve d condition of dis country..... Do u knw hw many souls such amt of moni will feed in yrs nd fuel dere biz Nd u stupidly go over dere Nd waste it Nd come bck wit notin bt empty speeches dat add ntin 2 d economy...
Story
Lai Mohammed is a fool for life. This government is made up criminals. How can this idiot spend 13.2 million for a China trip? Why the five delegates Mr lying minister? It's only God that will judge you and your criminal scam party APC for putting Nigerians in chains. You guys won't even make HELL because the devil is afraid of your evil.
No light, no fuel and they will be travelling. All of us should just carry our bag and go and leave in aso rock. Shebi, there is constant power supply in aso rock. Abi nepa dey take light for there? When Buhari see all of us for im dommot, na dat time im go know say the tin serious
Anoda scammer
If a minister and 5 persons require N31.12 million to travel to china I wonder how much PMB and his band of APC chieftains claim either he embarks on his endless foreign sojourns........
Is that conference worth that amount? Of what economic benefit will it be ?
Lai Mohammed should invest this N13.12 million in the "Masquerade" job project!!!!! anyways this is what you get when you vote people without a vision into government. honestly do we need a conference to tell us how to grow tourism in Nigeria??!!!!! DONALD DUKE has set the standard in Calabar if LAI MOHAMMED requires a blueprint to grow tourism in Nigeria he need look no further. Silly Old Man!!!!!
Buhari ministers are his problems. Offload all these guys your are the c in c. They can do shit. Even if the finance your campaign to win, now you are there any body that says shit we will face him ourselves. Off load them. Amaechi,lie mohammed even there godfather tinubu kick his ass guy. You need us not them to return to aso rock.
the issue i have now is that is when its close to election year this APC will start making things right and some stupid nigerians will go and vote for them again forgetting that its all strategy
Made in nija and grow nija....Please CONSULT DONALD DUKE...EPILEPTIC ON FLEEK ABC!

Is not fear,God help ur people in the hands of looters!;
Wait until you have a preview on what Buhari spend on trips with his team. It will blow your mind. Not less than 25 people tour with Buhari; that it's about 70 million per trip going Lai revelation.
Wait until you see what your presidency spend on his own trip; it will blow your mind
This is a real definition of "fantastically corrupt" that UK Prime Minister was referring to. I can only imagine the ones we are not aware of.
This is what we are saying, how will Buhari expect support from Nigerians when his allies are milking our nation . This is what is going on secretly in this administration. if Buhari is serious with fight against corruption Lai should resign.
What is the ambassador in China doing that he can't attend on our behalf or the culture and tourism officer of the embassy doing equally. Ole government which spent all their brain fighting GEJ and today are clueless travelers.
And they keep telling d people the country is broke...running local scam on em...fake change
Naija and corruption!

Story dt touches
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
Is this not fantastically corrupt?!!! Let's us ask the reasonably obvious questions;
1.what is the ministry of information doing at a tourism conference?
2.What protocol allows the Minister burrow money from a govt.parastatal ?
3 Is the Minister of Tourism aware of trip ?
4. Explain how 5 people's trip add up to N13M
5. As minister of information, how does this sit on the ministry's priority list of events knowing it is not yours to attend.or are u filling a quota for the Minister of Tourism ?
5. Why not the appropriate channel like the budget office, or even use ur allocated ministry budget?
6. In terms of value how will the ministry of information use this forum to help mitigate our present economic challenges
7. These 5 persons who are they,their role profile as it relates to the conference
8. How do u intent to refund the amount of monies borrowed from the NBC ,is there an established legal protocol for this type of borrowing... Explain.
9. Were these other relevant ministries ond parastatals copied in this transaction?
ministry of budget and planning (for refund), ministry of tourism(for support and assent) CBN (for forex purchase) Ministry of foreign affairs (for support in logistics and sundry).
10. Does your ministry have proof and documents to support all ur response to the questions raised?. Please provide these at ur defence.
Note;please remember that you are not responding to civil servants or subordinates. So be clear and concise with ur answers. ......
(Senate/H.O.Rep Hearing on the matter)

Foul mouth arse bole. Tinubu's bitch. Maybe He needs the money for pampers
Back to sender!
We are sorry for accusing you wrongly sir.
A top most Newspaper Editor-sitting on a befitting chair in the office of a National Newspaper in Lagos, Mr. Samuel Ajayi wrote this breakfast-open Memo to our dear President, Muhamadu Buhari.
MEMO TO MY PRESIDENT, THE THIEF CATCHER...
My dear Mr. President,
Rankadede sir.
There is always this sense of excitement from your supporters whenever they hear that someone (always from the opposition) has been invited by EFCC. They go overdrive whenever figures are mentioned.
Let me make it clear: I am 100% in support of you if you go after those who were awarded contracts and collected money without working. I will be your anti-corruption ambassador if you go after service chiefs who diverted money meant for their services. I support you if you go after banks who aided money laundering. I am your man if you go after those itchy fingers at FIRS. Or those who collected defence contracts and subsidy claims and ran away. BUT YOU CAN NEVER BE MY GUY WITH THIS YOUR PROBING OF CAMPAIGN FUNDS. You know why? You are GUILTIER than those you are pursuing!
It is not only immoral, but against law of natural fairness for you who publicly announced that you borrowed money to buy your nomination form, but ran a campaign of hundred of billions of naira. Where did your money come from? Lets tell you certain things which you pretend not to know about.
* When Akin Ambode resumed as governor of Lagos State, the total money he reportedly met in ALL Lagos State bank accounts was a paltry N850m! It was the lowest in recent memory. Not that alone. Capital budget for the fiscal year had been executed up to 85%! Yet, that was just FIVE months to the year. We only saw capital spending without capital projects. If they present these facts before you, you cannot deny you don't know where these monies went to.
*Rivers State has been complaining over almost N100b missing few months to the end of one of your minister's tenure as governor. Invite Wike over and you will hear ween!
* Each state being ruled by your party was taxed to contribute to your campaign. Depending on the strength of their treasuries. But they tried to outdo themselves. Sir, can you swear by Allah that you don't know why many states could not pay salaries today? Ask your campaign treasurer! And also banks they took overdrafts from!
* One of your ministers today, who is seen as agents of change, actually took N1b bank loan to prosecute a second term election he lost in 2014. If you are keen at probing campaign funds, sit him down and ask how he intends to pay back. As I write this, the loan is still pending!
* There are couple of banks and oil service companies who contributed to your campaign funding too. Your EFCC has pretended as if it is not aware.
Politicians know themselves. They know how they fund campaigns. It is public funds. Contracts are inflated or outrightly not carried out. Funds are diverted. Banks play their own role. Contractors key in. On the eve of election, banks overwork themselves. From minister/commissioner down to special assistants, cash is provided for them to go and prosecute elections in their areas. These runs into billions. Is that acceptable? NO! BUT THAT WAS HOW YOUR OWN ELECTION WAS PROSECUTED TOO.
I learnt you turned the blind eye when all these were going on. You jettisoned your long held personal principle not to have anything to do with thieves. After winning election and assuming office, you wanted to pick that principle again and expect someone like me to hail you? No sir! Lailai!
Since you saw nothing wrong in people stealing to run your own campaign, you have no moral justification to go after those who equally stole to run their own campaigns too. Public funds are public funds, either in Abuja or Lagos!
Assurances of my highest regards! Say me well to the First Lady. As copied from a Facebook poster
Amen my dear and me too
His name is LAIR. Silly old fool. I don't just know why the younger ones will be there and old fools wl be our leaders talking nonsense#Lindangwanu#
I feeling the change now, when i said there is nothing good in APC, some people said i was tribalistic because they were myopic to see the level of deceit and even the kind of people that surrounded the cabal. now change has come and same people have started crying. even the Northerners are doing evil prayers against buhari, the yorubas are crying while the ibos are too but doing their business little by little. The worst are yet to come. SAI BABA, SAI BABA . CHANGE CHANGE CHANGE. BESIDES, HOW MANY HAVE BEEN PROSECUTED BY BUHARI? TOPIC FOR ANOTHER DAY.
Naija which way...#onMYway
well, considering the situations of Nigeria right now, 13.12 million will go in a long way than investing it on 5 men for just a conference. from your own end, what effort than traveling have you put in developing tourism Mr. Lai Muhammed?
Now, do the maths. If an ordinary minister of information spends N13.12m for just a conference with just 5 delegates to china, how much would have the President spend with all his 'accomplices' to china, India, UK, US,Daura,kaduna etc?
No wonder,"they are fantastically corrupt"
The time for peoples revolution is way past in Nigeria. Nigerians need to eliminate all the current politicians and send forth new breeds. This old criminally minded corrupt fools must be eliminated
His name is Lai. That's who he is. What else do you expect?
Abeg if dem no go come back make dem come I go dash em d money. As long as em no go return back 2 dis our country dem company.
WHAT if dey go nd dem no come back in d process??....so wah rin appen to r mny?..13m wat??
How come NBC has such amount to give out to you as a loan and your Ministry does not have the money?
Eva Da Diva...
well permit me so say HE is immature lets look at the fact and why he asked for the loan,jes for selfish and stupid reason can you imagine he said Travel expenses.Our country is in deep pains and chaos we live in a country of abject poverty while d so called politicians are wallowing in riches,VP. Osinbajo said that N5000 will be paid to 1million poor nigerians,how sure are we that when they implement dis trash they call objective it will surface positively
My dear we just need God in our daily lives and we should try as much as possible to keep praying for NIGERIA.
GOD BLESS US>

Is the trip forever?
These old fools who are nearing their graves see this as the last chance to see the world, hence they resort to meaningless travels. They want to see the beauty of other countries but refused to develope their own. They won't offer good quality education to their citizens, their solution is to send their children to schools abroad.
They wont build good hospitals, then they run to hospitals abroad for a simple headache. They won't give their citizens electricity, thus they go to stay in hotels around the world where there is light 24/7. In my 23 years in europe i have only witnessed power failure 3 times and none lasted more than 3 hours, and was caused by lightening during rain. In Nigeria these sick leaders have spent billions of dollars on etectricity and still power supply is epileptic as epiplepcy itself. Ridiculos!!!
Alhaji Lier Mohammed is a lawyer and he knows that NBC is neither a financial institution nor a money lending organisation with licence to loan money. He officially stole, he was caught instead of repenting he was fooling himself the more.
Liar Mohammed has proved to be a disgrace to this country and as a cabinet Minister under President Muhammadu Buhari's government. All the while, he has been saying things and denying that he ever said them. Lies all the while. Now look at what he is saying - the letter was leaked by staff of the unit. He deserved surmmary dismissal from Buhari's Cabinet and an urgent replacement.
The one and only reason buhari will fail is the criminals he choose to work with and are surrounding him.(1)lai mohammed (2)bukola (3)pls guys help me.
And PMB is running round the whole world telling those who cares to listen that he is fighting corruption but has pretentiously failed to recognise it even as it stares him in the face with cases like this. SMH.
Me too my sisters. No be like this we go take die for suffering!!!
Mother Confessor
There's nothing wrong with getting a loan. The questions to the Hon Minister Lie are 1. At what interest rate. 2. When is he paying back. 3. What collateral is he putting down. 4. Is the Presidency a guarantor. I think these are few questions that our loan seeking Minister Lie should try to manipulate to convince unsuspecting innocent Nigerians. Haba Agbalagba like your lying self. Don't you just feel sorry for several millions of poor Nogerians. Well don't forget God dey o.
i dnt care abt ur false reasons mr lie muhammed
