@izzou, this is what can definitely lead to increase in price of fuel.

This is where we are

Higher cost of oil is more revenue for us but also higher cost of petrol.

Rolling out gas powered vehicles may resolve the issue, but then again as price of lpg is going up for who knows what reasons...

.....I think its something common though. When my Auntie lost her husband, a Pastor with 3 Churches. Auntie inherits the main church, while my cousins take charge of other 2 churches as Pastors/Evangelists.

common sense doesn't work in Nigeria, it's his time to eat, he has to introduce new projects, the kickbacks from some of the old projects still finds it's way to the Ministers in charge when they were awarded.

You don't want him to make money to fund his presidential aspiration?

You yourself just said the existing road is 700km and you can't drive it in 4 hours even if the road is smooth.

Another road that will cut the distance and drive time into two is very much welcome.

An average car that consumes 10km/litre will burn an extra 18,000 worth of fuel using the old road vs the new road for a single trip and 36k for a return trip.

That's significant savings.

Itsrm:
The new road will be about 400km according to him from Lagos to Abuja.

The new road is far more efficient. If it means abandoning the old ones, so be it.

Itsrm:
The project seems to make a lot of sense to me. He said Lagos to Abuja will be 4 hours and maybe to PH, 3 hours.

As it stands, it takes roughly 10 hours to travel from Lag to PH and more than 50k worth of fuel.

That's unecessary waste of valuable time and money

Unlimited22:
Jalingo-Yola and Wukari-Mutum Biyu axes of the road from Ogoja to the Cameroon border.


Which is a very important route because of the food that comes into the east from the north.


But nah, let's make more shiny new toys.

I don’t think this particular case will be business as usual. The public outcry is just deafening .

The fact that the IGP picked interest in the case , I’m willing to give the police the benefit of doubt to do the right thing in this matter

Izzou I dey see say people dey swim for Alaba side 😁.

GloriousGbola:
We have had this convo before.

NNPC is not buying dollars on the open market. And nnpc for all intents and purposes is still the sole importer of product into Nigeria.

What I would have thought you would be commenting on is the fact that oil is now $92 per barrel.

Theflint1:
They are, the math of it doesn't make sense. Tinubu lacks the balls to truly float the price of fuel. It's good news for the common man sha, but probably bad for the economy in general.

Possible. Na dat per sec billing Adenuga take carve out him own share. Plus he upped the stakes in the endorsements and advert game.

BlueRayDick:
Oya show me the section of the criminal code, police act or Nigeria's that says there MUST be a complainant before the police investigate an alleged crime. I'm always ready to learn

GloriousGbola:
no one needs to file anything. the case of Iniubong Umoren started on twitter. same with the case of the case of Bamise [Lagbus]. Unironically david hundeyin jumped on the umoren case with some bizzare organ trafficking angle.

BlueRayDick:
This is not true. The police may have said this, but that is not the true position of the law.

It is not written anywhere that there must be a complainant reporting a crime before the police investigate. The police has powers to investigate and make arrests on behalf of the the state if they suspect a crime has been committed.

Nigeria police say all those nonsense when they are caught pants down not doing their job

Godx:
Can any stranger file a report or it must be family members and relatives ?

BlueRayDick:
I'm assuming that when the police say they will investigate the circumstance of his death, then definitely they will arrest as many people as possible starting from the guy that made a video in the car crying over Mohbad's dead body.

Some of those guys will sleep in police cell for the coming weeks, they just don't know it yet.

Ibime:
His family is responsible for his autopsy and burial

Which means they have no suspicion against SamLarry, Marley and co. He either died of an ailment or overdose, and if there is any foul play suspected, those who rushed to bury him should be the one under microscope

GloriousGbola:
burying without autopsy has always been our way na.

if the guy was an unknown - na brief illness syndrome
