The federal government says with oil prices sliding to as low as $30 per barrel, the APC-led government will have to prioritize on the promises it made during the election campaigns.
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed said while on Channels TV Sunrise daily.
He said: "When you campaign, you say you’ll do A, B, C, but when you win elections, you’ll prioritize. We were elected for a four-year period, not for one year. Things, we hope, will not be bad all through these four years.
We are still faithful to those promises, but as you have rightly said, when we were campaigning, the price of crude was $100 a barrel. Today, its $30 a barrel, so definitely, we would have to downsize some of the things we intended to do, or prioritize them but this does not mean abandoning those promises”.
