Senator Ben Murray-Bruce has reacted to the recent statement made by Lai
Mohammed, the minister of information, blaming former president
Goodluck Jonathan’s administration for the present fuel scarcity.
Briefing journalists after the Federal Executive Council, the minister said that Nigerians are paying for the sins of the last administration.
In a swift reaction, the chairman of Silverbird Group took to his Twitter handle to express indignation and discontent.
Ben-Bruce wandered why the federal government did not commend Jonathan in June, when electricity improved, but now when there’s fuel scarcity, it blames the ex-president.
He called on the APC-led government to follow the example of President Barack Obama who inherited the worst economy ever but succeeded in reducing unemployment and petrol prices without blaming his predecessor.

So, let me get this right: The fuel scarcity we
are facing today is the fault of an administration that was voted out 9
months ago? Issorai!

This same Jonathan wanted to remove subsidy, you resisted him, now

How ridiculous! Are we going to be told Jonathan is responsible for harmattan and my neighbor’s wife’s miscarriage? #acceptresponsibility!

When electricity improved in June it wasn’t Jonathan’s fault but when there’s fuel scarcity in December it’s his fault #acceptresponsibility

The reason Nigerians elected this administration is because our
electorate wanted to hold them responsible for running Nigeria not
Jonathan.

Instead of blame game, swallow your pride and
work towards political collaboration to get us out of this no fuel, no
power, no FX situation!

Imagine that Govt is a relay race, how can this Govt expect to win
when it has spent the first relay of the race blaming instead of
working?

Earlier this year, Senator from Bayelsa state advised President Muhammdu Buhari to borrow N50trn and develop Nigeria ‘overnight’. According to him, Nigeria’s “piecemeal” borrowing would not achieve the needful development.
