Only Constructive Criticisms Will Be Tolerated - Minister

Dr Isa Pantami has warned CEOs of telecoms that he would only tolerate constructive criticisms backed with facts and figures.

The Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Pantami, has warned chief executives of telecommunications companies that he will only tolerate ‘constructive criticisms’.

Pantami, who stressed that he could not be influenced by propaganda, spoke at a reception organised for him by the Association of Telecommunications Company of Nigeria in Abuja.

He said, “I will welcome constructive criticism. But if it is not constructive then it is propaganda and I will not be intimidated.

“I encourage you to engage in constructive criticism. If you come up with facts and figures, you will humble me but propaganda will only make me to continue to do what I am doing.”
