It's not possible

Why?

Which kind govt b dis sef? Nigerians ran towards gas afta discovering it was cheaper and a beta option. Nigerians saw a business opportunity in d sector and decided to set up road side and street retail centres to services customers and also earn a living and now d govt wants to clamp down on roadside retailers. What's dis nonsense about Nigerians not owning their own cylinders?

Next level.

Everything that is essential to survival is what this govt wants to tamper with and we all know that once they implement whatever they want to implement it will bring hardship to already struggling middle class while lining the pockets of a few.

Make gas available and affordable, instead it is what does not concern them that they want to change.

Anything to cripple small scale businesses is the policy.
