Ur refineries will be working now if subsidy had been removed earlier U prolly not living in Nigeria. Even as dem don remove am, no refineries will still work. They are doing everything for their own pockets.
INVINCIBLECSP1:
If the current slowpoke occupying the villa had allowed Jonathan to remove this subsidy long ago, all this would have been a thing of the past. Our refineries would be working optimally by now. But politics of hate and bitterness won't allow them to see the future. Now, the fool rushed to remove subsidy without adequate plans. What an slowpoke!!
One thing I am sure if in all thses, those who supports oppressors because of tribalism or religion, will be the most hit. Karma is a damn bitch. If you sow the wind, you reao whirlwind.

The way fuel burns now eh is so alarming.
Na condecent una dey buy, that is the by products of Modula refinery, most filling stations are now going for it to make much profit now that the original product is high. They load their tankers in the depot take it to the Stations those who can afford it the original product sell 15,000 litre to them take the tanker to the bush load it with 15,000 litre of condecent and send it back to the society to run their cars. If u are driving a brand new car v8 your name Na sorry after few months. Before now Na for North u go see mostly but since fuel subcidi e dey everywhere now.

I don't think that they dilute their fuel with water. What happens in most cases is that when rain falls, water gets into their underground fuel storage if it's not properlly sealed, their fuel pump will suck the mixture and nozzle will dispense both water and fuel into vehicles' fuel tank.
No filling station will intentionally dilute fuel with water, such will damage customers' car now and not only will they lose customers, their reputation will also go for it and they may be sued for a very serious criminal offence.

Come to Abuja and witness it.. they did it to a friend and he caused them a lot of madness, they had to buy another engine for about three cars that day

A liter can as well give you 3km depending on the type of road

Stop calculating by km, u think say Nigeria na London city drive

Except your engine is bad, you bought a bad fuel, issues with oxygen, you're using a V8 or V12 engine, why should an I4-v6 engine give you just 3km per liter?

I don’t think it’s water. Maybe water enters their tank.

But the fuel right now is up to something. Only God knows what they mix it with.

Methinks it's mixed with ethanol or some organic compound. They sha have ways of mixing this things.

Most times its the rubbish they sell in all these fuel stations.

I met a man that came to fix his range rover where I fix my car. His problem was that he filled his tank of 100 litres with fuel but when the mechanic emptied the contents of the tank, we all saw more than 25 litres of water. The dude almost went berserk.

These fuel people now dilute their fuel with water.

Most people doesn't know that the rich is terrible.
[color=#990000][/color] This is what they do and they have being doing it before now but they will increase the concentration after the fuel increase to make double gain.

EVERY PROCESS PLANT HAS SEWAGE or WASTE
They sell this sewage which are also flammable also, to petrol station at middle of night.
When a fuel station receives fuel from depot, they he will dump three quarters of petrol (original) and another truck with sewage/waste will sell the remaining half to them. The fuel eill be adulterated .
But now that fuel price has increased, they may do it 50/50. It is so sad.

DPR and many other agency supposed to follow up where company dump their waste but they do not. And they collect bribe

I will not speak futher so that my employer will not sack me grin. But those that works knows what is happening.

Most people don't know the effect of the removal of fuel subsidy to their pockets.I told someone you would start feeling it 3 months into the removal i.e if our refinery don't start working.A smart person would have pressed his calculator check his fuel consumption for the month compare with is earnings and expenditure then you will know if you should drop the car at home and use it only Sundays or within your neighbourhood or turn the car to taxi to share the burden.
Re: The Rate At Which Fuel Burn So Fast Right Now Scares Me by confusedlady: 6:15pm On Jul 07, 2023
I think it is more of a psychological thing. The fuel used to be cheap so nobody was concentrating on the fuel gauge, however now the fuel is expensive people are really watching their fuel gauges. in fact in the estate where I live I no longer hear the noise of generators when PHCN seizes their silly light. Everybody dey manage the darkness like that.

Na only fuel?

Even electricity companies have discreetly reconfigured all the existing prepaid meters to suck the units faster.

Data consumption nko?

I think it has to do with the grade of fuel. Remember we import PMS from different refineries around the world. The lower the octane level the faster it burns. However, this doesn't mean the fuel is inferior to the one with a higher octane level.

Please change your oil. Use the highest grade to reduce friction and watch your fuel consumption go lower

Your fuel is not burning faster; you might just be buying the same amount in terms of cost but not the same in terms of liters.

Max of 8 liters on a 2 hours drive.

Did you calculate the kilometres you drove?

A liter should give you 12.5km, so do the math.

How did you arrived at 12.5km per litre Bec I used it to calculate for my daily fuel and it was accurate despite the fact that my car is even old
