Nigerians have reacted angrily to the government's nonchalant attitude concerning the lingering fuel scarcity.

Queues at a filling station because of the fuel scarcity

Nigerians have taken to social media to express their total disgust concerning the lingering #FuelScarcity that has crippled the nation.

Many say prices now go from N120, N140, N300 etc and have decried Federal Government's reluctance to address the issue. The public have accused President Muhammadu Buhari of complacency in not addressing the issue or even releasing a statement concerning the crisis.

The result of the fuel scarcity is seen on the citizens who have complained of high cost of fares, goods and

living. The fuel scarcity has also crippled businesses that run on generators because of the epileptic power supply by Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).

Here are the reactions as seen on twitter:

This amounts to economic sabotage. GMB must have a solution to this #FuelScarcity or hand the ministry of petroleum to competent Nigerians.
