Not every filling station sells diesel in Nigeria. If you have a diesel vehicle, that may be a problem. For those saying diesel vehicles are noise makers or heavy emitters, that is absolutely false, diesel vehicles have cleaner emissions and are more efficient all round.
They are definitely not cleaner. This has been proven in Europe hence heavy tax on them.manufacturers lied then.same way vw lied about thier emission test

I think I need to correct something here.
first, what is FUEL?
Anything that you use to produce any form of Energy. Eg.petrol. wood. Paper. Oxygen. Etc

Petroleum uses combustion while

Diesel uses compression

Besides both engines are extremely different diesel doesn't utilize spark plugs. Research well on it.
I heard diesel engines are loud and smoke a bit. My brother said he didn't go for a 2015 Benz E class cdi but chose the petrol variant because of that. He resides in the US
All that is hearsay. The Europeans on the other hand think Diesel is great. It's even more expensive to own one.

blank:
Why would they put him in detention and not charge him to court? It is against his fundamental human rights which the courts rightly acted on. The EFCC should arrest only when they have sufficient information to take to court. You can't keep someone locked up without trial.

The Judiciary is actually our last bastion of hope. Hopefully, EFCC will do the right thing by arraigning him in court and asking the court to grant them enough days to tidy up their case.
They use this to intimidate people.

I know this guy must go down. EFCC shld also investigate kakarta construction company. Conduit pipe for GEJ looting.
If u see the castle the MD is building in his village in Otakeme Ogbia, underground tunnel,..... Cashpiles etc.
The most annoying is that the same GEJ village has no road, not even connected to power grid. Kinapping is their sole business.

I dnt think so.me and you have no evidence that he stole any more ey and from what we are seeing EFCC do not ha e any evidence as well.you can't detain a person then go look for evidence later.u look for evidence first then arrest and detain.
Politics › Re: Before You Condemn PMB And Praise GEJ Concerning Fuel Scarcity, Note This by erico2k2(m): 8:10am On Apr 08, 2016
Montaque:
No.
the protest was because of the outstanding subsidy money owed them, and buhari and his party believe there is no subsidy or that its a scam. Buhari on assumption, directed all subsidy from january to stop, and nnpc to take over importation of all pms while supplemented with a part from local refinery product.
they oil marketers had just sat back to know how long nnpc can shoulder that responsibilty and look at where we are now. the last I know is that govt wants to resume subsidy again and allow the marketers to resume import since nnpc isnt up to task alone
Thank U v much. Some people I see on here preffer suffering in silence than facing realities. One month of fuel scarcity compared to 4 months of fuel scarcity.

[quote author=lailo post=44443300]GMB would not remove d subsidy abruptly just like Jonathan did,without any alternative plan to cushion d effect,making pple stranded during yuletide season but he would definitely remove it.There are better ways to do things.To answer ur second question,Buhari does not subscribe to fuel importation and thus would not encourage more cabals.He is busy working day and nite to end dis importation idea and encourage indigenous refining of fuel.That is what is causing d face-off btw him and d Jonathan-fed cabals called fuel importers.[/quote



they ain't Jonathan Cabals as they too held GEJ to work the last month
To my 2nd question your answer shows you are not in tune with news of the time PMB awarded 10 more import licence last year to importers mainly hid people.

Dis current fuel hardship makes me know better dat Nigerians are dumbos.A party dat was giving u peanut in d name of fuel and taken so much 4rm our common wealth through mass looting is now preffered to a party dat is bent on solving d problems in oil sector once 4 all.Jonathan was only allowing d marketers to import enough fuel,pay them huge subsidy,these same carbals will divert already subsidize fuel to neighbouring African countries for better gains.Jonathan maintained dis 4 good six years without thinking of building a single refinery or re-awaking d dead ones.So u guys prefer all these to someone wu wants to solve d problem once 4 all;refusing to coperate with cabals.Nigeria will be great again and wailers will bury dia heads in shame,its a matter of time.Bunch of impatient pple.
Lets test you sense of reasoning no bad intention intended I promise
Has fuel subsidy been removed?
has the number of Importers Increased?

You and I were given some amount of money which we decided to deposit in your account you no longer use, but is still functing. Each time I check the inbox of your phone, I see SMS alert of withdrawals, do you expect to continue keeping the money in your account or ask that it be shared between the two of us.

The SWF and ECA were run by both the FG and the states. When the states noticed that the FG was taking from it, they asked that it be shared.
Great if shared why ask for savings?what did the states do with thier own share?

It's that is suffering, from self deceit and denial. I hold my government accountable. But you should stop spreading lies that fuel scarcity never happened under Jona's watch.
No you are not fuel scarcity was as a result of importers going on strike for lack of payment and it was 3 wks to be precise so what's your point?

Stop telling lies. Nigeria was in deep shit. U also forgot the paralyzing fuel scarcity borne out of govt inability to pay marketers. So where was this 30billion u dreamed abt?
I think you are lacking in news in this sector.the fg never owed them money for supply. They where demanding the fg pay them the difference in forex in what they supplied. Ie the supplied @ $ lower rate and wanted areers paid @ $in higher rate nit at the rate of date of supply and we are talking supsidy payment. Do U understand?

Keep those questions to yourself. The scarcity we are experiencing today is on PMS (fuel) only. But under Jonathan it's PMS, DPK and AGO. The banks may likely not shut down because it's AGO (diesel) they make use of.

Seems you've conveniently forgotten that we run a monopolistic economy and crude is presently hovering around $33 while in GEJ's time was $100 plus for 95% of his tenure.

When your salary reduces..what do you do to your expenses if you can't rob other people?
So how does that relate to the lack of petrol in Nigeria? In the UK and US cheap Oil meant cheap petrol

Rubbish! You should've taken back to the era of Mungo Park. I guess it's Buhari's fault that Jona didn't save for the rainy days, always taking from the Sovereign Wealth Fund and Excess Crude Account, which were supposed to be jointly owned with the states?
How about the 30b and also where u not in the country when the fg was taken to court to share the so called savings?
We forget so soon.
