The Federal Government has reacted to the reported formation of Biafra Customary Government, BCG, by Asari Dokubo, calling it a “theatre of the absurd by a joker seeking attention’’.
Speaking with newsmen on the development in Lagos on Monday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said:
“I am sure you have heard of the theatre of the absurd, that is the best way I can describe it.
“This administration will not be distracted because we still have a lot to do.
“We are not ready to give any attention or time to a joker like Dokubo who is just looking for attention.
“We will just take it as one of these entertainment things.
“The beauty about Nigeria is that it is never a dull country, you must have one thing or the other to entertain you,’’ he said.
The phantom government was announced with names of some leaders by one Uche Mefor, who claimed to be its Head of Information and Communications.
