"In the words of the famous US rap group Public Enemy... You'll remember a line from Flava Flav - a member of the group - who said: 'Flava Flav has problems of his own. I can't do nothin' for you, man', " he said in an interview with privately owned Channels TV.

"We already have over 230 million people," the minister said.
