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.
Desperate sellers might not think like this - they know Nigerians don't sue for damages and the court will slow you down.

Must times, we should appreciate others view and not always think we are always correct with our views.

Most filling station are adding water to their fuel, same happen to me this Monday, my new car đźš— that I was driving from Car stand, decided to buy fuel in Ikorodu to enable me drive home.

Bros when I got to Custom Headquarters at Ikeja, naxo my car no gree trotto, Bros I fear, make New Motor no go off for road for me ooo, Lagos get the way e take dey oo, them no dey pack for road.

Mechanic said it's the fuel, that is mixed with water, decided to buy fuel and also buy fuel cleanser, something like that, that's what that person's meant by saying 4L, boss is that the name? Bros till now the car never fail like that again.

I suppose drive go Delta, but bcs of that thing, I gat change mind, make I no go drive reach Shagamu, make e start to worry, that will be a journey I won't forget, Bros I'm in Delta now, went here with Agofure, can't kill myself.

But this fuel stations are not doing well.

Bros my car dey shrink for my eyes, e cun be like say na the motor dey chop fuel, I don tell my wife say, e be like say na the exhales (stand to be corrected) that is making the car to chop fuel, but I have confirmed it now. Fuel cost and not durable.

That's my bad, I really didn't take note of the brand, it was the mechanic that ask the girl at the filling station if she has fuel cleaner and she brought it, I was scared if my fuel pump was bad

The fuel has almost damaged my pump. My car suddenly doesn't do slow again and I had almost 18litres left. I have called my mechanic to come and loose the pump and soak it inside diesel.
Soaking it in diesel?

So no more traffic and potholes on our roads to reduce 12km to 3km per liter?

12km may likely take you up to 40 mins to cover in Lagos if you're on the road with these factors.

The map image here is without traffic and no major potholes known on this route.

Judge by majority and not by your location

No traffics no potholes and it’s still taking 40mins for 12km, stop letting google confuse you, it should be a fvking 5-7mins ride
Are you saying legs are now faster than cars
