Badgers14:

You might have issues going back if you still haven't renewed your passport before leaving Nigeria. I advice you do express renewal. And even if the passport is not out you can present evidence that you have commenced the renewal process
I think you forgot the part where I said I have a British passport.

I read that Lufthansa let's you through in Frankfurt. Thank God for that!
But how long does it take these days to renew your passport in Nigeria? What if I don't get it in time to fly back?
Is it possible to travel to Nigeria with a expired Nigerian passport and afterwards return to Schengen area with a dual citizen passport (Belgian in this case)?
This is what I am doing, to Nigeria with xpired 9ja passport then return with british passport.
Politics › Re: Reno Omokri: Why Dangote Refinery Is Buying Crude Oil From The US by erico2k2(m): 4:37am On Jan 31, 2024
DesChyko:
Reno: Dangote Refinery bought US crude because Nigeria's crude has been purchased far into the future.

Still Reno: Dangote Refinery can purchase its crude from anywhere because it is a private establishment.

Why the fuss if it was never really meant to be a Nigerian thing then but just a private show?

Factos: Dangote will import crude with dollar purchased at N800 - N900. Local man will import for their businesses with dollar purchased at N1500. But local man should spend more time shinning teeth for every Dangote news that emerges.

That's if it's actually crude that is being imported
At the End local man still losses so whats the fuss,You see my guy,9ja matter tire person

To me it does not matter if he is a pastor or not.the mare fact that anyone feeds the orphans and they that cannot feed thems3lve Instandby opens the flood gates of God's blessings Regardless of what religion you believe in. So God speed to the cook and the money giver.

no mind am. I'm sure his accord instrument cluster was littered with Christmas light. A faulty Corolla may consume more than a gx470. That it's a Corolla doesn't mean it won't consume much petrol even when it's plagued with powertrain issues.
Let me tell U guys a wee story.my car got hut by a concrete truck in tunnel SE London so the company took my car 4 repairs so they gave me a small toyota 4 doors. Its 1.2 ltrs I was wow fuel efficie t small Engine.one day some Aunty came frm 9ja and wants me to drive them to central London at night.so I had 4 very heavy women in the car.I kid U not.my fuel zapped cos of over weight. Consumption was like a 3ltr Engine.

Lmao! I'll still tell you to get off your high horse, your reality is different from the reality of millions of Nigerians. Before, everyone says Toyota cars are easy to maintain and the parts are cheaper, look at the reality today, the parts are freaking expensive and it's even knock offs too, how many people do you think can afford to buy original oem parts? It's easier and cheaper to maintain a C180 or C200 2004 benz than to maintain a corolla of same year. Realities differ my bro. Be thankful for where you are that's all.
There is no horse here since the pound reached 1770 today. The horse ran away. Anyway, back to topic. The fact I'm trying to stress at is this, i nstead of countless journeys back and fort to mechanic, its better to just buy OEM parts and I swear down people do cos you will end up spending more money buying cheap fakes.If one has anyone that lives abroad best to telle them to help buy OEM parts. and oh yeah stop going to roadside mechanics, Cars are not cheap so be ready to pay to mentain them or give up your car for good.I was buying used tyres for my car until it messed up my supension mudule cos each tyres werer diff sizes,I had to buy 4 brand new 22inch tyres from UK at cost of 200 per one.cost nearly 1300 buying and shipping, so my car tyres now cost nearly N2m, so my guy if you live i n an Earth Road Im not coming to your ends for the fear of 6inches n ails and stuff grin grin grin

Bro, you're definitely buttressing my point, probably you didn't get the context before replying. The 08-11 accord v6 has a 3.5ltr engine capacity making it a gas guzzler, and I'm definitely speaking from experience.
I don't k now why anyone in their right mind will buy a saloon car above 2ltr Engine, if I should buy anything bigger it would be an SUV or MPV end of,as a new car owner I suggest a Golf 1,6 or 1,8 even a polo 1.2 and 1.4. Now that fuel prices has hit the roof.
NB the way you worded your statement was l like Brand of car instead of Engine capacity hence that reply.

lmao! Get off your high horse man, you seem like an ignorant person who has a grudge to bear. How many people can afford the "cheap" knock off parts nowadays not to talk of the unicorn original parts.
what's ignorant there when the truth is actually spoken? if an Engine requires 5W30 its folks like you that will pour in 10W40 cos its cheaper and widely available, by the way high horse does not have any bearing in what I was saying, you are just using that phrase for lack of better words to use or say. I stand to be corrected, you lot buy cheap n knock off parts and complain certain brands have problems or that the parts are cheap. This a case of penny wise pound foolish, Buy the original OME part for the real price and enjoy the parts for up to 5 years or buy a knock off cheap part for a fraction and keep going back and forth to the mechanic for 5 years, the choice is yours.it might interest you to know that most people have the money to buy original or OME parts but cos of certain school of thought or ignorant folks, they settle for what everyone goes for. People who cant even pay rent on a studio flat own iPhones that cost 2 million in Nigeria, so speak for yourself mr.

U are still ignorant.2024 u still do not know the fuel efficiency is regardless of brand and make of cars rather the engine capacity..I don't know how u lot have the brazneck to talk on car threads when U dont even know the fundamentals of fuel consumption s.This topic was talked a out and xplained on Nairaland as far back as 2007.

Fuel consumption is irrespective of car rather Engine size.
