Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s Spokesman, Femi Adesina, has been criticised for his statement on the lingering fuel scarcity across Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Adesina in his latest weekly article titled \u2018Knock Knock. Who\u2019s there? \u201csaid heavens would not fall over the current fuel scarcity and Nigerians will survive like always.<\/p>\n

The presidential aide recalled that Nigerians had experienced a similar situation in the past and they survived.<\/p>\n

His statement has since been condemned by Nigerians who took to social media calling him out for being heartless to the pains of those who voted his government into power.<\/p>\n

They chastised him for being insensitive to the plight of Nigerians queueing at fuel stations since February.<\/p>\n

Here are some comments gathered by DAILY POST from Twitter:<\/p>\n

@DejiAdeyanju \u201cFemi Adesina is why nobody trust government critics. 95% of critics and activists turn out to be more heartless and hopeless than the people they criticize once they get into the government.\u201d<\/p>\n

@Unekue \u201c Femi Adesina said the heavens would not fall over the current fuel scarcity and Nigerians will survive like always. Which \u201csee finish\u201d pass the one?<\/p>\n

@Bukar_Hamman \u201c Yes, so we should continue to be with our economic hardship due to the failure of our leaders to address challenges. Oil-producing nations for over 55 yrs cannot have a single refinery.\u201d<\/p>\n

@ToheebAlim \u201c This is how these people think of Nigerians. Is Femi Adesina aware of promising youth that lost their lives indirectly due to fuel scarcity in Ilorin? How do you think their parents will feel seeing this your view? This administration is no doubt the worst. No human feeling at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

@AbeyBlack \u201c Femi Adeshina, One thing I want you to remember is that you\u2019re not going to be in that office forever. In fact your days are numbered, is that what you wish for your entire family, to adjust to poverty? God will judge you accordingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

@Kene \u201cThis Femi Adesina is a disgrace to journalism and seeing someone who attacked Jonathan\u2019s government badly is talking from another side of his mouth, PDP 16 years we have never witnessed one fuel scarcity, never terrible power supply as we have now. APC is a curse.\u201d<\/p>\n

@ExclusiveKing \u201c Sleeping in filling stations and buying for 65 naira is better than sleeping in Aso rock and paying 300 Naira.\u201d<\/p>\n

@TemitopeOjt \u201c When PDP was in power and we had fuel scarcity, these people protested. See what he is saying now. Since PDP is not protesting, doesn\u2019t that mean they are in cahoots with APC?<\/p>\n

@Ceewhy \u201c The disrespect! These guys take us for granted too much, sadly though a lot of people don\u2019t even know they\u2019re being taken for granted .\u201d<\/p>\n

@Toneroforeal \u201c No be your fault oga. Do remember the power is transient you hear. You will come and join us soon when your time expires next year.\u201d<\/p>\n

@Onyiforlife \u201c Femi Adesina continues to talk down on Nigerians, knowing our weaknesses and taking advantage of it. This man disrespects Nigerians. Do I blame him?<\/p>\n

@Edirined \u201c With full chest, Femi Adesina said the heavens would not fall over the current fuel scarcity and Nigerians will survive it like always.<\/p>\n

\u201cDid he lie? NO. We are indeed suffering and smiling people.\u201d<\/p>\n
