Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to resign over the “nonchalant attitude ” of the Federal Government towards ending the fuel scarcity being experienced across the country .

The governor said it was unfortunate that the fuel scarcity was biting harder under the watch of the president as the Minister of Petroleum .

He maintained that the All Progressives Congress -led federal government was punishing Nigerians with fuel scarcity so as to achieve its planned raise of petrol pump price from N 145 to not less than N 185 per litre .

The governor stated these in a press release issued on Friday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media , Lere Olayinka.
In Ado Ekiti , there were long queues in Bovas filling stations in Adebayo and Bank roads as well as the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation mega station on Iworoko Road.

Our correspondent observed that the long queue led to traffic gridlock on the ever busy Adebayo road.
Fayose said , “Already , fuel is being sold officially at between N 180 and N 200 at petrol stations across the country .

“ It is sad that this Buhari ’ s APC government had to choose this Christmas and New Year period to ground Nigeria with the fuel scarcity that it deliberately orchestrated .
“ It is obvious that the president has failed in all ramifications and he needs to do Nigerians a favour by relinquishing the portfolio of minister of petroleum. ”

“ Like I said a few days ago , what the federal government is doing is to create scarcity so that Nigerians will be willing to buy at any price , provided the product is made available.
“ It was to achieve this planned increment of petrol pump price that they restricted supply of petrol to NNPC alone . ”

The governor , who sympathised with Nigerians for the hardship said that the only option to rescue Nigeria now “from being brought down completely is to vote out Buhari and his APC in 2019 . ”

The day army man slap you, you will remember the police is your friend. Fuel was selling at #87 for 4 odd years and we still voted out the man in charge because we said he was corrupt?

Now you are waiting for 5 hours under the hot sun to buy fuel at #350.

Sai poverty

In 1983people queued to buy milk and in 2017 people are queuing hours to buy fuel. Hmmmmmm

The incompetence of the APC led FG fully responsible for this scarcity. Now they should know propaganda ain't enough to rule Nigeria

Yes i agree with fayose but he must 1st resign for unable to pay ekiti workers about 5months salary.

where are the yoloba Muslims?

Will President Fayose deregulate the downstream sector ?

The elephant in the room is deregulation.

If we are seriously considering ending this fuel scarcity, we need to allow marketers to set their prices, instead of govt doing it for them.

We need to privatize NNPC, and the refineries too.

Do that, and hoarding, stealing, subsidy scams, etc will stop.

Yes, prices will go up. But do we have money to pay for subsidy? No.

That is what bubu should do. Or a hypothetical President Fayose.

Oil subsidy must go. Let us stop deceiving ourselves.

Resign no dey Buhari agenda. He did not resign when he was very sick, is it now that he is flexing you want him to resign?
BTW, if and when Lere and Fayose fall out, cans of worm will be opened

All those condemning GEJ back in the day have been cowed to remain silent and dormant.

No politician is just, they are all hypocrite, they spoke while in opposition but have been mute since they came on board.

What a pity. #Buharimustgo.

Lol

That was how Omenka ran away from Nairaland and Changed moniker

Wristbangle developed phobia for Politics section

Mynd44 turned adviser

All Pro Buhari fans now uses alternates to troll anyone against Buhari as IPOB including our able MOD (You know yourself)

Can anything good ever come out of Bullhari?


Lol...

I agree
Buhari should resign

Imposicant. Don't just go there.

General dullard Buhari should do the needful.

Afonjas come and beat me

Pls he sud stop ranting joor...which president don resign since 1960. No b naija we dey? Yeryer dey smell...just like ti open mouth ...hiaaaan

What I find annoying and embarassing is how Nigerians have suddenly lost their voices and senses... I'm guessing dis govt's ineptitude and horror show so far has left dem petrified

When they said removing subsidy will solve our problem.... Then fuel scarcity happens under removed fuel subsidy... That means this time we will purchase fuel x3 of what it should be before subsidy removal.

Nigerians are in for a long ride.

This his talk is hypocritical and unnecessary

daddy buhari Walahi you are a Bastard o..... what I went through day before yesterday to get fuel your daughters first born go under go am too by God's grace

Big failure.Only fake promises and propaganda

imaging governor that cannot pay his state salary want the President to resign .......with all the Paris fund, bailout fund, he still owing......bfor throwing shit pls clean urself up
