Return of fuel scarcity: APC says Jonathan's policies are fraud

The Presidential Campaign of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has said that the return of queues at filling stations across states of Nigeria is a confirmation that the policies of the Goodluck Jonathan administration are founded on pure deceit and insincerity.

According to the APC campaign, it is now evident that the recent reduction in cost of petrol was borne out of political expediency for the elections, rather than compassion.

It also condemned the poor electricity supply across the country by power firms, describing it as a sad reminder of the failure of the PDP-led Federal Government.

The APC group, in a statement by its Director of Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, wondered how a political party which has been in power for 16 years, could still feel confident to seek another term in office.

The statement partly read,“The issue is that being unable to set up even one new refinery in the past five years and unable to get existing refineries to function up to 50 per cent capacity, the people of Nigeria surely need another set of people to be in charge of affairs."
