Basically most people think tyres are naturally black but there are other colours.

Today I found outmaking tires black, instead of the natural white color of rubber, produces a much stronger and longer lasting tire.Originally rubber tires were white, which isthe natural color of rubber. In the early 1900s, Binney & Smith began selling their carbon black chemicals to Goodrich Tire Company, as it was found that the use of carbon black in rubber manufacturing significantly increased certain desirable qualities for rubber meant to be turned into tires. (Binney & Smith would later switch to making school products, and, eventually, re-name their company after their most popular product, Crayola Crayons.)In any event, carbon black works as a reinforcing filler in rubber, which increasesthe durability and strength of the rubber. Specifically, adding about 50% by weight of carbon black increases the road-wear abrasion of the produced tire by as much as 100 fold and improves the tensile strength of the tire by as much as 1008%. For the uninitiated, the tensile strength is the amount of force needed to pull something to its breaking or bursting point. |
white tyres do exist

'When as a minister in the 70s i built Warri and Kaduna refineries together with 20 deports and several kilometers of pipe lines....... Aliko Dangote is building a refinery capable of refining 650, 000 barrel a day, we are also going to repair the four refineries all these will be completed within two years. All the channels of oil theft will then be blocked and those who happen to be alive will witness a rich and better Nigeria. After all that, if Nigerians choose to elect thieves as their leaders again...it is s left to them."

Suspected assassins on Wednesday shot dead an Egba High Chief, Moses Oyebade, whom they accused of promiscuity. A note the attackers left after killing their victim in his Abeokuta, Ogun State, said “useless man, Oni dokudo (promiscuous)”. The assassins had arrived Mr. Oyebade’s Ikanna compound in the Ago-Oba area of Abeokuta, and broke the sliding glass window of his room to gain entry. Mr. Oyebade, 75, who was the Apena of Ikanna, was said to be sleeping when the assailants visited. He was shot him at close range several times. He marked his birthday in Lagos two weeks ago. PREMIUM TIMES gathered that at the time he was killed, Mr. Oyebade was the only one in the house and his neighbours were said to have been. Mr. Oyebade’s colleagues were said to have reported the matter at the Ibara Police Station, Abeokuta. The police later visited the home of the deceased to remove his body to the mortuary. The first son of the deceased, Oluyemi, said he heard the news of the death of his father through a phone call from one of his brothers in the early hours of Wednesday. He said he had earlier been informed about some unknown persons trailing his father’s movement. He recalled that gunmen had on two occasions visited the house but could not get access into the building and that their inability to gain entrance into the building in their first two attempts could be the reason why his father was shot through the window this time. He said, “My father was sleeping in his bedroom. The bed is close to the window. As the glass was broken, he woke up to see what happened. He took his torch to see who was there. That was how he was shot. The first gunshot was in his hand which was seriously damaged. Maybe when he was still struggling, they shot him again. I guess they shot him three times.” The younger Oyebade expressed displeasure that none of the neighbours of his father could come out after the murderers had left to assist his father. He said his father could have been alive if help came promptly. He said, “The funniest part of it was that, when that incident occurred at that time, nobody came to his rescue. If you look at that room, the blood on the floor was more than what you see in an abattoir. It means he struggled to death, while the neighbours were quiet. They could not assist him. They pretended as if they did not know what happened. “That is my pain. How can you be living in an environment where you call yourselves neighbours and none of you could even come out to assist? It is just unfortunate. If I have my way, I think everybody in this neighbourhood should be arrested and investigated. “Can this people who are very close say they didn’t know something happened here? I am beginning to suspect that there are connivers within the neighbourhood.” When contacted, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi confirmed the incident. He said, “We have a case of murder at hand. Apena of Ikanna Chief Moses Oyebade, some men went to his residence , broke his window and shot him at 12: am . “We have examined the place and recovered assassination note which contained a message written in both English and Yoruba languages”. “The content read ‘useless man, Oni dokudo. In our preliminary investigation, it could be a case of assassination. We will invite some people for interrogation. “The state Police Commissioner, Valentine Ntomchukwu has directed that the case be transferred to department of criminal investigation. The perpetrators would not go Scot free. The commissioner of Police sympathises with the family, even, the Kabiyesi, the Alake of Egbaland.” Source:http://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/ssouth-west/185347-gunmen-kill-ogun-chief-accuse-him-of-promiscuity.html |
Facts have emerged showing why Senate President Bukola Saraki led a delegation of Senators to meet former President Olusegun Obasanjo at his hilltop mansion, Abeokuta, Ogun state on Friday. A source close to the meeting told PREMIUM TIMES that the Senate President was in Abeokuta to beg Mr. Obasanjo to reconcile him with President Muhammadu Buhari and his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC. Mr. Saraki emerged as the president of the Senate against the decision of APC leaders. He was also elected when most Senators from the APC were at the International Conference Centre waiting to hold a meeting with Mr. Buhari to discuss the election of the Senate president and Speaker of the House of Representatives. Our sources said Mr. Saraki lamented to Mr. Obasanjo that although the party leaders have stated that they have accepted his emergence, there was “complete communication breakdown between him, the president and the party”. The national chairman of the APC, John Oyegun, had abruptly cancelled a scheduled meeting with Mr. Saraki last week without giving another appointment. Likewise, we also gathered that Mr. Saraki had tried severally to meet with Mr. Buhari after his emergence, but was always denied audience. Another source in the presidency informed us that the President was angry with Mr. Saraki and the management of the national assembly for going ahead with their election despite adequate knowledge of an invitation for a meeting with Mr. Saraki and his colleagues. “The president considered it as a mark of disrespect for his office for Saraki to ignore an invitation to meet with him and his colleagues,” our source said. In his response to the Senate President’s lamentation, Mr. Obasanjo reportedly promised to do his best to “ensure communication between all parties”. However, the spokesperson for the president, Garba Shehu, said the Senate president has never sought a meeting meeting with Mr. Buhari since his election. “I am not aware of any request for a meeting, the president would have seen him, he represents a key institution in our democracy,” he said. Calls to Mr. Saraki and his aide, Bamikole Omishore, were not answered. Our source said the former president, in his usual jocular self, also joked with the delegation, saying “ you children of nowadays only run to elders when you have finished making the damage”. Mr. Saraki and his entourage laughed. A presidency official told PREMIUM TIMES President Buhari was aware of the the senate president’s visit to Mr. Obasanjo’s home. The official said Messrs Buhari and Obasanjo are constantly in touch and regularly have telephone conversations. The official said in one of their recent conversations, Mr. Obasanjo informed Mr. Buhari that Mr. Saraki was leading a delegation of Senators to his Abeokuta home. “I overheard President Buhari laughing and saying to Mr. Obasanjo, “you have to see them, are they not all your boys?”, our presidency source said. Among Mr. Saraki’s delegation include former governor of Gombe state, Danjuma Goje, Senator Andy Uba, former Zamfara governor, Ahmed Sani, and former Osun governor, Olagunsoye Oyinlola. Mr. Saraki and most members of his delegation are largely Mr. Obasanjo’s “boys”, a term loosely used in describing the former president’s staunch loyalists.
