The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed says plans are on ground by the Federal Government to launch National Policy on Culture, Tourism and finalise work on Motion Picture Council of Nigeria and others.
Mohammed stated this when he played host to Culture, Arts, Tourism and Entertainment Writers Association, Abuja, CATEWAA, in Abuja. He described the achievements of the ministry in the last four years, as remarkable and laudable.
The Minister said that there were some misconceptions in certain quarters that the ministry in the past four years paid more attention to the information sector rather than culture and tourism.
Earlier, the President of CATEWAA, Bridget Onoche said the meeting with the Minister was imperative, considering the desire of the association to project activities in the culture sector.
The CATEWAA comprises journalists from different media organisations covering Culture, Arts, Tourism and Entertainment beats.
