President Muhammadu Buhari’s Special Adviser on Media, Femi Adesina has been taken to the cleaners by lawyer cum activist, Ayo Obe over his comment on the current scarcity of petrol in the country.

She said; “Yes Fem Adesina we did. It was even worse.”

“But that’s one of the reasons why the government responsible then was voted out. It wasn’t because Nigerians said: Let a different set of people preside over our fuel shortage.”

For those who don’t know, in an article entitled; ‘Knock, Knock. Who’s There’, Adesina said Nigerians have survived petrol shortages and “we will survive again. Las las”.

“It’s obviously not the easiest of times in our country currently, with severe fuel scarcity exacerbating the other existential challenges we have been coping with. In some areas, there’s no fuel, no electricity, thus translating to severe energy crisis,” the presidential spokesman said.

“There were cases of bad fuel before in this country.

“We slept for days, weeks on end at petrol stations, queuing for fuel. We survived. We will survive again. Las las.”
