Are you sure soludo is a professor?

This guy is just not fit to be called one. This one is wonder product.

The government of the day doesn't care about Nigeria at all. If it burns or destroys forever. The only thing they know is to win the election anyway.

Dangote greed is killing Nigeria. Crude oil have crashed internationally

The right thing was for the government to pay dangote refinery the refining cost. And the government control the price for Nigeria market as a kind of subsidies. Not allowing dangote to buy crude refined and sell anyhow to Nigerians.

Why is dangote not accepting refining cost. What is he afraid of? For domestic market he should accept refining cost from NNPC while that is dyed to red or yellow. The one he wants to produce and sell to international market should be a clear colour.

And at-least the fuel can be traced.

Government should never allow him to sell to domestic market. That is already affecting Nigeria and it economy.

Before the Iran war oil was 70$. And at the peak of the war when it reach 160$ fuel jump to 1400.

Now crude is 80$ fuel is still selling for 1400. What rubbish excuse?

What ever he thinks is good for the refining cost no matter how high it is he should tell the government and Nigerians. Not under any excuse of crude oil price as disguise to be increasing fuel every market day. The economy is dying.

Lithiumite:
Imagine you sell bottled water and your cost price is 1,200 to sell at 1,500 a pack,you still have stock to last you a week but you get news that prices have gone up to 1,300 a pack,yoi will have to increase price to 1,600 despite you bought your current stock at 1,200,you need to hedge against the 100 naira increment and maintain your profit margin of 25%......you will have to increase prices immediately.

When you then restock at the new cost price of 1 300 to sell art 1,600 but you then hear again prices has dropped back to 1,200,you cannot immediately reduce your selling price back to 1 500 because you bought at 1,300 and you will need to still retain your 25% margin.
you have no options or choice when others have drop their prices. That's business.

A solid competitive business is what all Nigeria needs. Not talking Trash about monopoly business


What benefits if that refinery to average Nigerian?.

If not for greadiness. Dangote should have been charging the Nigeria government refine cost while the government continue with the fuel pricing and distribution, maybe subsidy. But he refused than he wants to control everything and ban import for business people are already doing long before he came. Since he open that refinery that fuel price have increased more than 20 times. And by the next ten years Nigeria will be paying it 3-5k mark this post.

Look where we find ourselves now.

The rice farmers didn't favour Nigerians same way with this refinery.

Dogalmighty17:
Let me try explaining to you OP since you are obviously too lazy to research issues yourself.
Crude oil tankers take weeks to arrive at ports of destination. The price that crude was bought, determines how much the resultant fractional units gets sold for. It doesn't matter if price drops when that ship is still in transit and the refinery has to process its contents. The refinery will sell products at the price of the latest import.

If the refinery orders more crude at a lesser price, then prices at the pump will come down. Let's not forget that Dangote still sources his crude from outside. He has to offset that before little gains can start coming in.
have you run a business before? There is what we called loses in business. You can’t escape that is a decentralized economy. Only a monopoly.

Company cover loses its not a new thing. As price change over time. They make more gain when it increases and lose when it decreases. It's that simple

Claiming that all of them will have to first sell out all old products is a total rubbish.

Politics › Oil Prices Have Crashed But Nigeria Fuel Is Still High by fineboynl(op):
before the conflict in Iran, global crude oil traded between $70 and \$72 a barrel. Went up to about 140 -150 at the peak of the war. but now back to 80$-90$ but why Nigeria fuel is still very expensive?

They are just complaining because more and more european are using the platform because things are cheaper there.

This has nothing to do with batteries
Temu doesn’t sell products like powerbank or any products with high capacity batteries.

Things the europans find on temu are 10X cheaper than stores or other european websites.

Just fix the whole screen. All those "na only the touch na em damage," so you want to go fix only touch-screen is just a temporary solution, it will further damage later. Just fix the whole screen, and pray that the person you giving it to is a good and sincere one.

The last time i heard, na 17-15k for fixing.
How you sure? For amuled screen?

It's not the touch. But the screen n. It still touch fine. And can be manage. I am typing this with it.

Just that it hurt the eyes.

Last night my redmi phone fell.

The screen is not cracked but super internal damage with white flickering screen like Samsung.

I really tried to avoid Samsung phones because of this. Alter several research back and forth I settled for redmi. And yet that shit still happens.

Unplanned expense just sets in.

Guys please how much to fix this phone noted 12 pro +?

I really don't like fixing phone screen because the glue doesn't always firm like it came out from. The box.

MTN is acting up lately. And it's getting worst each passing day.

I'm beginning to think that's it's intensional to get people into their cyber x.

I'm on MTN yearly plan. Since last year I haven't been using it.

So I only use Airtel my area plan as a backup.

Airtel will disappear your data. If they had the power they will disappear your phone too.

The money I keep wasting on Airtel my area plan daily. Airtel will zap it all within few seconds and you will be asking yourself what you did with gigs of data every day.
Car Talk › How To Customise Japanese Sedans Soft Suspension To Stronger One by fineboynl(op): 11:43am On May 24
To customize a Japanese sedan for a stronger, stiffer suspension, you need to replace factory "soft" components with performance parts.

To make standard Japanese sedans (like the Accord, Camry, or Altima) handle rough terrain, potholes, uneven and unpaved roads. You must swap factory components for heavy-duty and lifted parts. Replace factory struts with heavy-duty twin-tube shocks, install polyurethane bushings, add lift springs to increase ground clearance, and upsize to taller, thicker-walled tires.

If you are dealing with severely damaged roads, ruts, and potholes, follow these actionable steps to build a more robust suspension:

1. Upgrade to Heavy-Duty Struts and Shocks
Factory shocks are tuned for smooth city driving. When they are pushed over rough terrain, they quickly blow out or overheat.

Twin-Tube Dampers:
Opt for heavy-duty gas-charged twin-tube shocks (from brands like KYB, Bilstein, or Koni). They can handle aggressive impacts and dissipate heat much better than factory ones.

2. Install Lift Springs (Increase Ground Clearance)
Lowering your vehicle is terrible for bad roads. To clear rocks and avoid bottoming out, you need extra height.

Raised/Heavy-Duty Springs:
Brands like Dobinsons or King Springs manufacture "raised" or heavy-duty coil springs for vehicles like the Camry and Accord. These will lift the car by 1 to 2 inches while offering a stiffer rate that supports heavy loads.

3. Switch to Polyurethane Bushings
Rubber suspension bushings tear easily when constantly twisted and pounded by uneven roads, which leads to metal-on-metal knocking.

Polyurethane:
Upgrade to aftermarket polyurethane bushings. They are significantly more durable, resist rot from dirt, and keep your suspension geometry tightly aligned, although they will transfer slightly more vibration into the cabin.

4. Optimize Your Wheel and Tire Setup
Your tires are the first layer of defense for your suspension. Large, low-profile alloy wheels will quickly bend or crack on potholes. Smaller Wheels,

Thicker Sidewalls:
Drop down a wheel size (e.g., from 18-inch rims to 16-inch rims) and pair them with taller tires. This increases the amount of rubber between the road and your metal rims, acting as a natural cushion that spares your shocks from brutal impacts.

Front/Rear Strut Bars
Bolting a strut tower brace across your engine bay stiffens the chassis, ensuring that all road impacts are absorbed by the upgraded suspension rather than the car body itself.
