Christmas: It’s A Shame That Nigerians Are Suffering To Get Fuel – Osinbajo
Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has said it is a shame that Nigerians are celebrating Christmas amid a serious fuel scarcity.
Osinbajo’s spokesperson, Laolu Akande, quoted the vice-president as saying this, when he visited Oando and Heyden filling stations in Lagos.
“It’s such a shame that Christmas has been, to some extent, with this sort of discomfort,” Osinbajo said.
“This is deeply regretted, and l know that, despite the resilience and strength of people in Lagos and the Nigerian people, we would see ourselves through this and will enjoy our Christmas and have a great new year.
“We are trying to move as quickly as we can. Obviously, people have gone through a lot of pain and anguish in the past few days, and that is deeply regretted.
“We are trying to do what we can to move as quickly as possible and there is certainly enough products to be able to solve the problem.
“We will be able to solve the problem; the short period of scarcity is quite a bit of burden, but we know that so long as products are enough and the trucks coming out and feeding the stations, this will be over very soon.
“I am going around with the Honourable Minister of State for Petroleum Resources here in Lagos to ensure that first, the trucks are being loaded from all the depots, and also looking at the filling stations to see that things are moving on very well.
“The GMD of the NNPC is also working in Abuja to see that things are moving quickly and we are moving around the country. So we expect that it will be resolved very quickly.”

APC lay a good example in Nigeria, to see a vice-president in depot on Xmas day. If our previous government did as exampled, Nigeria will have developed. But PDP under Jonathan used his days in office thinking how to drink beers and looting public funds.

Chai ajibola it’s bad to have useless brain like yours. Well it’s as a result of the overdose Tramadol you took. You are supposed to ask your brother/pastor cum vice-president who that shame is meant for. Are you guys not yet tired of dreaming about Jonathan?
