‘Blame PDP government for fuel scarcity,’ Ex-Vice President says

Atiku stated further that the unfortunate situation is a result of the PDP’s mismanagement of the country.

 

Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has said that the current fuel scarcity plaguing the country should be blamed on the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

The former VP stated this on Wednesday, April 29, 2015, while speaking with journalists after a private meeting with President-Elect, Muhammadu Buhari.

“We just discussed private matters. Well, there is nothing unusual in what is going on. That is PDP for you: corruption inefficiency and what have you,” Atiku said.

“Real changes will come. The president elect has assured that but it will not just come over night. It has to be gradual. Definitely there will be positive change in that matter but it will be gradual,” he added.
