The newly appointed Minister of Art, Culture and Creative Economy, Hannatu Musawa, has pledged to revamp the country’s image on the global scene.
Channels TV report that, While speaking during a visit to her home state of Katsina on Thursday, Musawa expressed optimism that the country will no longer be known as the ‘419’ a code name for fraud capital of the world.
“We will project the ministry in a way that we can really change the narrative of who Nigerians are. No longer are we going to be known as the 419 capital in the world!” she noted.
Through this ministry, we will be able to advance the narrative that will place Nigeria at the forefront of not only entertainment but also culture because it is a nation with a diverse range of cultures, which we have a duty to preserve. The minister urged Nigerians to keep supporting the Tinubu administration after thanking them for their patience.
“I want to hire the greatest people, reach out to Nigerians in the diaspora in the several fields in which they are experts, and convince them to return to Nigeria so that they may work to change the world by trying to move it in a positive direction.
Because I have the necessary skills, we will also be able to generate a tonne of money through this to help the Tinubu administration.
In order to offer Nigerians a better understanding of the type of work we aim to accomplish, this ministry will start releasing a timeline the next week.
“We’re going to get right to work. I commend Nigerians for their endurance and patience, and I implore them to help President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima carry out their mandate and implement their action plan.
Nigerians ought to provide them with the assistance they require. A little patience from Nigerians is needed given the kind of mission the President and his Vice are on.
They have a plan that, in Musawa’s opinion, will truly revolutionise the nation and make it a better one.
