National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party,(PDP) Adamu Mu’aazu, has alleged that the current fuel scarcity in the country was sponsored by some APC Leaders.
Mu’azu, in a series of tweets on his official Twitter page, alleged that the opposition leaders and some vested interests were behind the hoarding of fuel which, according to him, was responsible for fuel scarcity in the country.
He, however, did not mention the names of the opposition leaders.
The PDP chairman said the fuel scarcity was engineered to undermine the profile of President Goodluck Jonathan ahead of the elections.
He said all plans to tarnish the image of Jonathan would not work.
He said in the tweets, “Concerned Nigerians have drawn our attention to the fact that some opposition leaders and vested interest are behind hoarding of fuel.
“Concerned Nigerians also draw our attention to plans by those who control the South-West disco to sabotage electricity in the zone.
“We assure Nigerians, they will fail. All their plans to tarnish the image of government will fail like all other previous attempts. We want to assure concerned Nigerians, especially all of you here on social media, that we will reverse this trend soonest.”
But the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Lai Mohammed, described the allegation as laughable.
Mohammed, in a telephone interview added that the allegation had further shown that the PDP was confused and terrified of imminent defeat at the polls.
He said,“If there is any further proof that someone is confused, I think this statement by Mu’azu is one of it. Who are the people bringing in refined oil products? Are they the opposition members? What is the business of the opposition with petrol scarcity or hoarding? Who are the people behind the oil subsidy scam? Are they opposition members?
“The PDP is completely clueless and frustrated. I will advise the PDP to just simply not bother to contest the elections. Our democracy cannot grow under their leadership. Nigerians now know that they cannot even clean their own mess.
“We should be the one making the allegations. We are sure that they are ready to attribute any little problem to the opposition. We are not ready to join issues with the PDP because we have better plans to fix Nigeria. The allegation is absurd.”
Mohammed later in an email statement said, “It is totally unconscionable, and indeed an admission of failure for a sitting government and a ruling party to blame the opposition for their failings.
“These guys have simply abdicated their responsibility to the people. They can as well throw in the towel and head for home.
“The questions to ask are: who runs the NNPC? Who pays subsidy to fuel marketers? Who has used federal resources to bribe individuals and groups to such a level that there is no money to run the government, let alone paying subsidies?
“The moment a ruling party starts transferring its responsibilities to the opposition, it is clear that the market is over.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Adamu Muazu, who forced you to say this? Its very absurd to know that this is coming from you. Won't it be better you guys in the Presidency and PDP just shut up and watch the way APC members conduct themselves. Comments coming from you guys are always never coherent. What is wrong with you guys. Can't you see you are indicting the Presidency and the Ruling Party? Please stop these nonsence or are you all suffering from mouth diarrhoea?
ReplyDeleteGo and ask your fathers who is more corrupt .GEJ OR GMB.Go to the elders that lived during his reign.many of you are to young to understand.
ReplyDeleteMUMU.
DeleteIt is ordained that God wants to save Nigerian at least for once. If a statement of thus nature can emanate from the headship of a ruling party, then what other evidence do we need to change this confused Government. We need another hand at least to relief ourselves of this confusion every time. After all, we all thought Mr President will perform magic in 2011 and Nigerians voted en-masse for him. Now we all shared the blame and the consequential sufferings afflicted therefrom but with our PVC and total resolve, we can move mountain.
ReplyDeleteWe all understand that fuel scarcity is a normal thing and it's never a political issue rather a federal government issue which will surely be resolved with time but this big head don't even want to make it simple at all. Everything to them is political, what a foolish reasoning.
ReplyDeleteMr president need to change the people that surround him fast cos they don't have brain at all.
