BusinessRe: Filling Stations No Longer Sell Kerosene. Painters, How Are You Coping? by drignet(m): 9:19am On Jul 16
Gbadugbakun:
Go to the airport you'll see it an buy because that's what aeroplane uses. It's what they call jet fuel. Na kerosene be that o. They don't want it to look like the plane uses stove so they found a porsh name for it. grin
The claim is **partly true, but mostly misleading**.

Here's the breakdown:

* **Jet fuel is derived from kerosene.** Most commercial aircraft use fuels such as **Jet A** or **Jet A-1**, which are kerosene-based aviation fuels.
* **Household kerosene** (used in some stoves and lamps) and **jet fuel are not the same product**, even though they come from a similar part of the crude oil refining process.
* Jet fuel is manufactured to much stricter standards. It contains carefully controlled additives to improve safety and performance, such as:

* Anti-freeze additives to prevent ice formation at high altitudes.
* Anti-static additives to reduce the risk of sparks.
* Corrosion inhibitors and lubricity improvers.
* Strict quality controls for purity and consistency.

As for the statement:

> "They don't want it to look like the plane uses stove so they found a posh name for it."

That's **false**. The name **"jet fuel"** isn't a marketing term. It's used because it refers to fuel specifically formulated and certified for **jet aircraft**. Different aircraft engines require different fuels:

* Jet aircraft use **Jet A, Jet A-1, or Jet B** (aviation turbine fuels).
* Small piston-engine aircraft typically use **Avgas (aviation gasoline)**, which is completely different from jet fuel.

So while someone might casually say "jet fuel is basically kerosene," it would be incorrect—and potentially dangerous—to assume you could use ordinary stove kerosene in a jet aircraft or vice versa.

In short: **Jet fuel is a specialized kerosene-based aviation fuel, not just regular stove kerosene with a fancy name.**

Oluwadare316:
It might turn to ww3 thereby super powers like Us, Russia and China will be involved. Death and destructions to people and minerals resources, economy setbacks and change in global dynamic etc. It's easier said than done, I believe Russia hasn't nuke Ukraine till now, nuclear war affects both parties. No country has everything , becos a country is not gud doesn't mean you can erase them from the Earth. Africa economy will also suffer in different ways, people go dey suffer for mumu of US and Isreal.
we pray it ends well.

Stop saying NONSENSE.

It's a violation of International Law to ASSASSINATE the Head of State of another country.

ILLsrael/US did it.

DON'T make it seem like Iran was the first to violate International Law.

Iran used cluster munitions to attack Isreal. This is ban by UN... So since Iran and UN didn't see it otherwise... Let the otherwise feel am

This is colonization 2.0. Trump is just tweeting/truthing anything that comes to his dementia mind.

Tomorrow now he might say Venezuela should change their name to something in English

The lacuna and loopholes for talking points were to be corrected by the boy.
So u never see where people are doing Nin corrections...

You can do another course. But it must be with same information. In one claim the person claimed Lagos as state of origin and in the other, the person claimed Anambra. That's the issue.
Then don't you feel ashamed for the person that a 400l medical student is competing with teens for high score?
ashamed? Why even obj at 70 moved to get another degree.
They should focus on the NIN. We know many mistakes those organisations do

Eboes never like to take accountability

The Point is that once you have passed JAMB and matriculated in one university you are not allowed to Matriculate AGAIN
Repeat
once you have passed JAMB and matriculated in one university you are not allowed to Matriculate AGAIN
once you have passed JAMB and matriculated in one university you are not allowed to Matriculate AGAIN

If you try it the system will pick it up and block you

So he tried to get around that by dishonestly manipulating information about his identity

Those are the issues instead of engaging with that Eeboes start whipping up sentiment

1. DOUBLE MATRICULATION NOT ALLOWED
2. IDENTITY FABRICATION
u re funny . So I can't read another course after the initial or take jamb for my best. Are u ok?

under 48 hrs. That's only sees jamb as unserious institution.

Many even got the message or even have the idea of reprinting the day of their exam. A friend was even in Lagos and had to hurriedly rush down to east... Just check it out. A week would have been the best

I have no iota of respect for ANY Nigerian politician starting from the drug lord and treasury looter in Aso Rock and to say I hate Nigerian politicians with a burning passion is an understatement. In fact I pray daily that ANY Nigerian politician that has stolen monies meant for poor Nigerians will move from one calamity to another for the remaining days they will spend on earth and their lives will be 1 million times more miserable than what they have foisted on Nigerians with their stealing from the Nigerian treasury.
And they will steal and steal and steal and went down to steal directly from the masses. I wonder the kind of human they are. And when you think one will be different....boommm that person becomes worse
