Goodluck Ebele Jonathan handed over power to President Muhammadu Buhari on May 29, 2015.

On Monday, December 22, despite the APC being in power for 8 months, the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed blamed the administration of Goodluck Jonathan for the fuel scarcity that has besieged the nation for several weeks now.

Reactions poured in immediately on social media with Nigerians apparently tired of the tirade of excuses the current administration has given for its failure to address the lingering issue of fuel scarcity.

The hashtag #LetsBlameGEJ immediately took over the social media space.

If you don't have light, no generator? No food, no wife, got sacked please lets #LetsBlameGEJ

Imagine the kind of cold in Naija. If GEJ had done his job well this harmattan would have been diverted to Togo.

And then, those who did not remotely think the Honorable minister made any sense to them

Someone tell @MBuhari and Lai Mohammed that we voted @APCNigeria so they could fix PDP's mess but everyday we keep hearing #LetsBlameGEJ

Still wonder how Lai Mohammed became a minister not to talk of being minister of information and culture. Still talking like APC goon…
