let me test your comprehension...

interesting
this thing has been in practice as far back as early 90s. i remember then along benin-0re road, alongside my father. it was a VW passat, we stoped to refuel, after which he parked some few meters away to let his engine cool off, a guy alerted us that theres oil fast leaking from beneath, i checked, confirmed and i was alarmed. but shockingly my old boy just ignored and we drove futher away some 200meters, he parked and told me to check again, this time it was suprisingly perfectly dry and normal, no single trace of leak. he informed me that its all a fraudulent mindgame employed to expliot naive drivers , amoung other similar tricks. we eventually completed the trip back and forth with no issues.

slave and slavemaster politikings!
why should i care?

stuuuuuupid News report. fruits of quota system and federal character!
shameful ovation. next to be celebrated would be ''sniffer dogs''

reminds of those days on NTA News where u see ibb commissioning a handpumped rural borehole!

op, depends on ur location
opel vectra, astra and zafira are rampant up here in d north

@trac
99% is actually extreme, u r correct. but outside the big cities of abuja,lagos,ph, kd and co... thats the nearest figure, especially on auto-electronics of modern german cars. Good mechanics conversant with latest technologies are very rear. the opel Expert i patronize in jos gets regularly gets cars towed to him, from states as far as sokoto , jigawa and adamawa, all because of electrical complications. this shouldnt be the case! thats my point

op, get ur german machine oh, but take note... as a ''novice", you should be ready for the very few "auto authorities"... "They
have bills and family to feed.
They have less repairs. These
mechanics should be
encouraged/patronised".

@trac,
if u read me well, i never said "no single nigerian mechanic" understands german autos, i said 99% are not updated on MODERN GERMAN AUTOs, especially ELECTRONIC ASPECTS!
if am ''very wrong", kindly educate me with your percentage, am a willing learner.

as for CUT-THROAT charges, i have nothing against the true professionals, its just a caution to the op, at least you dint fault me on that.
i used a relatively modern vectra and i speak from humble experience.

op, trac is very correct, no car is actually free of electrical/mechanical faults. it takes deep pocket or GUTS to upgrade from japanese to german.

NOTE: NOT APPLICABLE FOR LAGOS ROADS!
also applicable only when you have slightview of atleast 3 cars ahead of you.

first i keenly observe and time the flow pattern of the traffic jam, then apply as such...
nuetral+handbrake.. for less than 2 minutes short movements
switchoff engine..if more than 2 minutes interval movements

u will be suprised how long 2 minutes could feel when in traffic

we have the same situation
in my opinion.... compared to asian cars, 99.9% of german cars are much safer(from theft also), rugged and reliable. newer models have better fuel economy and excellent performance, i love benz and audi especially.
BUT the problems are our automechanics, 99% of them are 10-15 years beyind in auto dynamics. especially on auto-electronics, thats where owning a modern german auto becomes a huge Challenge.
but for the few mechanics good with newer models.... their service charge is cut-throat. only if u r ok with models before 99, u then enjoy the best of our mechanics. thats why in the north 90% of transporters go for german Autos for these obvious reasons.
that aside, i love the audi A4's badly. they are luxurious, rugged and yet economical.

i hope the gurus will come to the rescue with their recomendations

You mean hausa-fulani leaders right? He doesn't need them. What he needs is to boldly continue the transformation agenda, and let the entire electorate decide.

Where are the Buhari boys? Where are they?

There are countless easier ways weapons enter nigeria. But.....
This is a shameful speculation by a govt official. Pure careless talk.
