I dey here dey reminisce
I just did James Bond move on ojota express trying to link 7up/cmd road, I really don’t know how to describe it.

But I picked this G boys (1in front , 2 back) going to ogba on surge,
There was traffic in maryland and Mobolaji bank Anthony, so I faced ojota.

As I was about to turn right to service lane to link bridge, police stopped the car in my front,
I thought there was a one way or no turning sign that is hidden somewhere, I looked at my rear mirror and saw two police men running towards us from back. I reversed a little to see if they are coming for me or the car in front, next thing they hit my car and tried forcing door open.
See James Bond move people started shouting.
One came to the front with gun, i was ready to clear him, he jumped away I zoomed off and stopped infront, Window down to ask what did I do, they started running towards us again.
The G boys already hiding phone, removing exhibits. Then I realized they wanted the boys not me, But it was too late to stop now, they will rope me too. I zoomed off towards ikorodu ooh.
The boys were thanking me say them don faint for body.

E be like say na only island I go dey move now.
If you no smart in this hustle and pray to God, distraction will send you to relegation zone

Lol... Normally self I don't like their fuel it burns too fast, I've already known this since the days of their Total Card while still with telecoms and the little period with their Bolt Total Card. I only use the one on Bank Athony Way.

Again their attendance are top crooks with just a blink of an eye they've spam and scam you without your notice.

As in they just turn 04 Honda civic to V12... just 10k and my tank has run back to half tank. I only use 2 stations, it's either Bovas or NNPC ojodu. It is well

Was your tank on reserve before getting another gas? Atimes, unknown to us, our tank reserve might have been very low before refilling... Is one of the best filling station you can trust. I drive approximately 10km to get gas there. I doubt there is any foul play, but ofcurse, anything is possible.

My feul was on half thank, I was even think of getting 3k, but I want it to fill to brim, cos that's what obtainable for me every morning. The people shock me.

Lol...e fit still rise but those people are suspicious. My fuel is never complete when I buy there.

Now I only buy fuel in NNPC Ojodu, Ogudu, Alfred Rewane; Mobil VI and Ikoyi; Bovas Ojodu. Then if na midnight on the Island I go Rain Oil inside Lekki Phase 1. Finish

Modified: Mobil Ozumba and Awolowo

You say Mobil Ozumba? I hope it's not the one beside their HQ, I'll rather push my car to mainland, b4 buying gas. You see those 3 filling station in OJodu bus stop is so Ok, only the Oando have small common, they have touts as workers and you can hardly see what they are selling. I used to do Heyden and Northwest at V.G.C and Mobil road, but one i buy 3 or 3k5 in the morning on my way out, even if I like work till the next day, I'm covered, now I have to buy extra 1k gas to have some peace and sane mind.

Avoid Total filling station MBA for your good, those guys just play me long thing, normal 3500 gas that will full my tank at NNPC Ojodu from half tank is strugglin. I don't even know what happened, upon how meticulous I tried to observe, I can't point at any foul play.

Take a 25 Litre NEW Keg. Go to some choice filling stations and fill up the keg.

You will notice that there are always changes in pump quantity by different filling stations.

Eg.
Filling station A may take 4,400 NGN at 162.5 Naira per litre and use 27.08 LTRs to fill a 25 Litre Keg.

Filling station B may take 4,619 NGN at 162.5 Naira per litre and use 28.44 LTRs to fill the same 25 Litre Keg.

Now, assume you budget 100K for fuel in a month, to get 615 Litres at Pump price of 162.5 Naira;

At filling station A,
25 Ltr keg = 27.08 actual ltrs purchased to fill
615 Ltr budget = 666 Ltrs actual purchase.
I.e. difference in Ltrs translates to roughly 8.2K difference in a month and 82K in 10 months.

At filling station B,
25 Ltr keg = 28.44 Ltrs purchased to fill
615 Ltr budget = 700 Ltrs actual purchase.
I.e. difference in Ltrs translates to roughly 13.7K difference in a month and 137K in 10 months.

So you see, A will rip you off 82K while B will rip you off 137K in fuel purchase alone, if you budget 100K for fuel monthly.

No filling station will give you the actual pump value sha. They'll all rip you off but at varying extents.

Bottom line; from my small experience;
Run from Total (Oregun), Total (Old Toll Gate), Total (Alausa). Try Oando (Lagos Secretariat) or Heyden (somewhere at Ilupeju). Heyden sells at 165 but funny enough, their pump value is the best among the lot.

A lot of stories are hidden in numbers. Numbers tell the realest stories.
I did this for my work place and we changed filling stations; fuel costs dropped by more than 10 percent.

I hope this helps.

I know this long time ago, even from vessel to the tank at tankfarm will surely have variance, but when they take ullage and the discrepancy in variance is high, such order is being rejected. So I am aware of various methods at which we can never arrive at actual figure, but what these people did this morning is far above 1k. Either it's from the nozzle, hose position, machine or tank, they almost killed my vibe for the day. The pathetical thing was I didn't even check my gauge until I got to 3MB, I only observe he didn't pull any magic and zoom of cos I have a rider waiting.

I have 3 filling stations I get gas from, the moment I use one and I noticed the burning is not right, I just avoid them for like a week or 2, let them get over the bad products in their tanks before going back to try again.

I think Northwest sells d the type of fuel Total sells...it burns fast. So their pump may be accurate but it still doesn't deliver the results of Heyden, Bovas and NNPC.
My experience though.

But I picked this G boys (1in front , 2 back) going to ogba on surge,
There was traffic in maryland and Mobolaji bank Anthony, so I faced ojota.

One came to the front with gun, i was ready to clear him, he jumped away I zoomed off and stopped infront, Window down to ask what did I do, they started running towards us again.
The G boys already hiding phone, removing exhibits. Then I realized they wanted the boys not me, But it was too late to stop now, they will rope me too. I zoomed off towards ikorodu ooh.
