I already heard they've been taxing businesses that power their business with generator.

There's no electricity and sanitation is taxing people for using generators.
Too much problems in this country.

So long as Nigerians continue to remain fools the criminals in government will never stop pressing their necks. They have been telling us to endure since the days of structural adjustment and till date we are still enduring.

Borrow sense and switch to cooking gas. Dual petrol/gas carburetor are a fad right now. 1kg of cooking gas at N600 is equivalent of 4 litres of petrol at N2000. The problem now is that the Carburetor has mooned, something that cost N12,000 before the petrol increase is now selling at N30,000. Me I have ordered mine direct from China, I expecting it next weekend.


On which platform did you ordered?

Message me on WhatsApp let me suggest an alternative to you. I have a barbershop also and the only time I put on my gen now is Saturday evening just to re-charge my clippers for two hours max. There’s no way you are still using generator at this period and you hope to profit. 08051057165

Cost cutting control is key.

“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
— Revelation 12:9 (KJV)

How did he deceive the whole world?

He tells half truth and half lies.

He told Adam that he will not die if he eat the forbidden fruit.

Physically, really, Adam did not die.

He died spiritually by being separated from God.


Look at these three religion:

Judaism
Islam
Christianity

These religions originated from virtually the same source.

Seek the truth. The truth is here somewhere.

Don't let the devil deceive you.


and what was god doing when the only man he ever created was been decieved? I guess sleeping or acting unconcerned as usual

The question is, how long is this stability in electricity going to last? We have been enjoying at least 23hours of light for a few weeks now. But my worry is, no one really knows why the sudden improvement. Is it that the dams are filled as a result of rainfall and consequently, we are now enjoying light? Or is there another reason? No one can say for sure.
I believe it’s because of the rainfall
Hence the constant light…
They know wah they’re doing
Let’s see if they keep giving us light when we enter dry season….

This is a state government thing.

This isn't cool at all. If electricity supply was regular, would they resort to using generators?

Please who can do this conversion ?

For a generator

For a car

Thanks in advance

I did it myself. Got the gas/petrol carburettor, removed the old carburettor from the generator and replaced with with the new gas/petrol generator. Get a hose of desirable length and connect the carburettor to a a low pressure regulator connected to the gas cylinder. If you can't do it yourself, ask around in your area for any generator technician who can help you with it.

Like my tired is really tired o.

I'm a spray painter and we need petrol to execute tasks; ( mixing gloss paint, running the spray engine and what not).

This sudden petrol price hike had taken a huge toll on me personally. Welders are on the bright side cos diesel price keeps crashing for a while now and most of them use diesel engines.

Before now, N2,000 petrol will handle the painting of 15-20 doors. But now my brothers ,N5,000 worth of fuel can't deliver 20 of the same doors.

If not for the odd jobs and some improvisation, I wonder what would have become of me lately.

Like we're just programmed to suffer in this country.
no be the country de suffer you, na you( or should I say you and others who do your job) de suffer una sef. If price of petrol go up you too should increase price

Don't just type two lines, explain how it gives more run time, how much gas do you buy and how many hours does it last?

I get almost 4 hours run time from 1kg of gas on my regular load. I haven't accademically checked how many hours I get from petrol but I know it's way less than 4 hours
