Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has blamed the current fuel scarcity in parts of the country on the People’s Democratic Party.
While speaking to journalists on Wednesday, after a private meeting with President-Elect Muhammadu Buhari at the Defence House in Abuja, Atiku said the PDP’s trademark has always been inefficiency and corruption.
Speaking on his meeting with Buhari, he said: “We just discussed private matters. Well, there is nothing unusual in what is going on. That is PDP for you: corruption, inefficiency and what have you. Real changes will come.”
Speaking further, he said, “the president elect has assured that but it will not just come over night. It has to be gradual. Definitely there will be positive change in that matter but it will be gradual”.
Atiku also spoke on the ongoing jockeying for principal offices in the National Assembly, saying it will be resolved.
“This is something the party and the leadership are handling. I believe it would be resolved before the House reconvenes”, he said.
