The Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, on Thursday confirmed that he won’t resign from office.
According to Malami, he will end his tenure gloriously by May 2023.
Malami stated this while speaking at a conference organised by the National Association of Judiciary Correspondents in Abuja.
The AGF distanced himself from the report that he had resigned from office, while he called on newsmen to be factual in their reports.
Malami in his address also called for the prosecution of journalists used by mischievous politicians.
The minister said, “It is high time that we enhance media literacy for Nigerians to appreciate fact-checking and verification of information.
“Many who relied on some unprofessional information disseminators will be taken aback that the Malami that was claimed to have resigned as Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice was still seen in office discharging his functions including attending the Federal Executive Council meeting yesterday, granting interviews to journalists and still today declaring this conference open as the Attorney General of the Federation.
“There is naturally an end to everything. My tenure in office has not yet ended. I pray for a glorious end.”
