The picture attached here was takn last night @ NNPC Mega station akobo, Iwo road side, The pics might look like they have closed for the day but believe me, It was the beginning of black market sales, They shut their gates, told people on queue that they have closed, and they started sellin black Markets from 7- 10Pm. Infact ordinary attendant dey flog people with koboko. I pity we own country.

Why has Mbaka refused to speak again? Or abi prophetic messages don finish?
I remember during GEJ regime, how he was vocal, dropping prophetic messages every now and then. Now he has kept mute because the wind of CHANJI has now blew off what was used to blind fold him.

I really like how Buhari always results in economic contraction and queues. 1984 as a kid my parents and I queued for basic food stuffs and household goods. 2016 is here, and I'm queuing again, this time for fuel. As least the guy is consistent smh. angry
I said it, that this guy is not what we needed, but we all fell for the swindle. Hopefully we won't easily forget in 2019.

That isn't even long, I've seen a queue 3 times longer than that. There was a certain fuel crisis in Nigeria during 2000 - 2004 , not really sure which exact year it was but there wasn't any fuel in and around Lagos with only NNPC station, Ikoyi ( Alfred Rewane road ) having fuel in Lagos. I got there with my car at about 8am and saw the longest queue I have ever witnessed in my life, I parked at the exit of the station and decided to walk to the end of the queue , after walking the full length of 3 streets I stopped a bike to take me to the end of the queue, the queue ended at Obalende and I paid the bike man 100 naira. Now that is a queue to beat ( Ikoyi to Obalende ).

Bro.. It may sound insensitive but even me sef have my own threshold. At some point, the NLC would have to kick in and declare a force majure situation.

But what I meant with that statement is that I am will to suffer the pain now in exchange for a better tomorrow.

I don't believe importing more fuel is the solution.

I don't believe in subsidy either.

The earlier Nigerians know the truth about the state of affairs in the country, the earlier we start appreciating the work needed to fix this decay.

Can u pls tell me the real reason we are facing all this? Am confused

Yes. But who is sure that PMB understands the economic implications?

Petroleum ministry and Federal Inland Revenue Service - FIRS- are the two greatest money generating depts for Nigeria.

Last year, FIRS generated about N4.8 Trillion to Nigeria.

Election won. President Buhari took over Petroleum ministry.

Tinubu took over FIRS through his boy, Fowler, the man appointed by Buhari as boss of FIRS.

Tinubu boasted before TV cameras in Lagos during the last presidential campaign that he personally went to plead with Buhari to come out from retirement to contest the last presidential election.

Nigeria is in an intricate web of scammers who have no interest of the masses at heart.

I recorded 4km of fuel queue by NNPC SuperMega Station along Kubwa express opposite Jahi district in Abuja last week. I don't think any fuel queue can beat that in Nigeria.

The fault is yours for not asking how he was going to do it. Nigerians will believe anything which is why the country is the way it is. You all need to start asking questions. In normal societies, people ask questions.

That one na learner. Try Forte Oil after Lekki-1 toll plaza or the new Pinnacle station by the 2nd round about, Lekki-Epe expressway, you will weep for people. That queue is not less than 2 km long, and the queue is double or triple in some cases.

Some have slept there for for 2 days now, since Sunday

Fuel scarcity in Nigeria has continued to break records in the history of excruciating discomfort caused by the unavailability of Premium Motor Spirit across the country.

The current crisis has been described as the most protracted scarcity in recent times.

A social media user named Miz Carzola based in Abuja has shared what she believes is the longest queue for fuel in the history of Nigeria in the course of different fuel crises that has so far become a normal occurence in successive administration.
