Tinubu... The cat with nine lives. He has defeated IP0B/0BIDIENTS again

Chinkoalhaji34:
Finally, someone is speaking up! Alico Dangote is right on the money here. It's high time we address the issue of substandard fuel that's been wreaking havoc on our vehicles. Let’s demand better quality and ensure our cars don’t suffer for the incompetence of others. Nigeria deserves better!

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) began regulating diesel fuel sulfur levels in 1993, and in 2006 began phasing in stricter regulations to reduce the sulfur content to 15 parts per million (ppm) or less. This fuel is known as ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD).
The standards for ULSD are intended to reduce harmful emissions from highway vehicles and non-road engines and equipment by more than 90%. After 2010, all highway diesel fuel supplied to the market must be ULSD and all highway diesel vehicles must use ULSD. Most diesel fuel sold for off-highway (or non-road) use is also ULSD.
The EPA's regulations are a result of the Clean Air Act (CAA), which was amended in the 1990s to include technology-based standards that require the maximum degree of reduction of emissions of hazardous air pollutants.

Atiku, Obi and Kwankwaso should get ready to form the interim government because we are hoping that the protest will escalate into a nationwide revolution and flush Tinibu out of Aso rock.

TopNotchTrends:
Amidst the saga regarding the refineries, business man Alico has during a press conference stated that imported substandard fuel is damaging fuel in the country. He said this as a response to why he his lowering the price of diesel which he currently produces (some hinting that is a substandard). He said most senators are already experiencing that damaged that this substandard products are causing Nigerian, a problem his refinery will provide solution to.

■ Unknown group formed by Agbado boot sucker.

ObiORBiafra:
Som people will be rolling on the floor in severe pain right now. they will insult the north tire this afternoon.
Watch.

PresidObi:
■ Did you give my people any okpa? They are in the same position as me. Nobody is a fool in the Nigeria of today.

PresidObi:
■ Ok, but we won't follow people that ate okpa to drink water.

Empresa:
Who is Northern Ethnic group Assembly? Who know them?

PresidObi:
■ If you check my posting history, you will notice that I have always been right in most of my summation. Nobody in the middle class will gain anything from this protest, this is planned by those big shots that are not happy, or wants to gain from the chaos that will ensue. Some people even say govt insiders are behind this. Nobody should use our heads to break any coconut.

PresidObi:
■ Same logic applies, we have nothing to gain from any protests. We have no horse in the race.

PresidObi:
■ The consensus opinion from my quarters is the same, we have nothing to gain from any protest. It has been rigged from the beginning

PresidObi:
■ I don't care. We are simply not protesting. Hoo haa

RenaissanceGuy:
Breaking news: 1,680 northern groups declare support for Aug 1 protest.

PresidObi:
This is exactly why we have been calling on the eastern and southern parts of Nigeria to desist from any planned protest, they will "collect" from the back and leave you high and dry, it's all politics.
If you are a young struggling person in Nigeria, pray for peace, they have made their arrangements and it's all against you and your future. The people who are there at the top are devil's, stone hearted witches who cannot see you progress.
What chances do you have against such wicked people with armouredcars and big guns. They will kill you and accuse you of being a Yoruba nation agitator terrorist. Just go to work and pray to God for peace, if the protest starts, the poor masses will be the worse for it.
God bless Peter Obi
God bless Nigeria
God bless all lovers of peace and progress.
God punish supporters of drug cartels.

no wahala, todays news says NMDPRA has gone to test samples from Dangote, lets see how it goes. We will catch the liar las las.

■ I disagree...wat gud can come frm denying us cheap petrol in Nigeria

leokid866:
■ share the link cause I don't think I've seen this interview and if diesel is been subsidized the price would definitely be lower and our neighbors wouldn't be crying they are paying more for our petroleum products.......

leokid866:
he actually can't get crude cause Nigeria entered into a forward sales agreement with Afreximbank earlier in the year.....the contract ends at the end of this month.....so Nigeria and NNPC can't sell to him direct and the IOCS have taken advantage of this by selling their products at a markup or just not selling to him at all.....

dalongjnr:
1.He's a house of reps member,not a senator as you portrayed!
2.He tarred roads and still constructing more, show me a senator from your constituency that is currently doing that.
3.He's compassionate towards his people,that's why he was able to do what he's doing, considering how heartless other members are.
4.If you consider what is on ground, I will tell you that, it's more than his salary and constituency development allowances for the passed 5 years.
Go to his Facebook page and verify what I'm telling you. Yusuf babayo gagdi or Yusuf gagdi.Seeing is believing.

Mryacks:
■ On top of that he is busy buying properties in Jos and Abuja.

adabaraabdul:
I dont know what you are getting at but obviously you are derailing from the original points of this discussion. Something is definitely wrong with Government accountability in Dangote refinery and Government should handle herself. If there are shady deals there, the relevant authorities should investigate and do the needful. But a government regulatory body coming out to say Dangote products are sub standard at a time when the Nation needs this products is suspicious. I like the way the man has told The house to commence an investigation so we can know who is lying. Dangote products are better than the ones imported and thats a fact. Tell your government not to shy from the investigations and testing of Dangote's, and the imported products, lets see who will come on top. The NMDPRA boss should hang his head in shame.

Umuinyioku:
[size=8pt]■ A friend of mine uses same type of far. He bought it N26million. That was 2023. Even we were disputing the cost of being too high. So,how come same car costs amount you quoted this year?[/size]

leokid866:
∆ you have no choice.....it makes no sense to deprive of him crude.....you will just be shooting yourself in the foot economically.....cause if you sell your crude outside you will still have to import it after it's refined.....it's 2024 bruv no one has time for that.....drop your hate I beg.....

leokid866:
your right the prices went to 1100 then to 1200....currently the highest is 1300...that is still a far cry from 1800......and yes some level of price control exist when it comes to oil related products but those only kick in when certain markers are passed for example if by some strange reason prices rises to 2k per litter.....but at 1300 you are not going to get a cheque
∆ from Tinubu and the people who have import licenses have been bringing in diesel of lesser quality just to compete.....I believe that NMDPRA guy is one of them which is why he is salty.......

leokid866:
wait I don't get you mean the diesel we were buying 1700 - 1800....that is now 1200 is not a good thing.....and you say it is been subsidized.....subsidized how?

grandstar:
His claim of receiving no incentive from government is not entirely true.
Emefiele sold dollars to him at heavily subsidized rates which did not reflect its market value.
Meffy was prepared to practically do anything to ensure the refinery project was a success. He was a strong believer in development financing.
