The last time I checked the only fuel being 'refined' by bunkerers is diesel. That is all they can achieve with their contraption operation.

You folks are really ignorant of the operations of these guys that's why government hasn't been able to tackle it or why bunkering would never end, partly because the sophistication of the refining process is downplayed.

I am from an oil-producing LGA. We got the activities stopped in my LGA about a decade ago in collaboration with the government because it's too close to essential companies and it's a tourism designated LGA as waters were being ruined.

Other oil-bearing LGAs across the Niger-Delta still have these bunkerers.

These guys produce petrol and diesel perfectly. PERFECTLY. The only problem they have is kerosene which has quantities of petrol in it so very combustible.

And that diesel has a low gravity/density which damages generator lift pumps over time. It will do same to heavy duty vehicles.

Again, you are ignorant. The bunkered diesel is deep purple. Magenta even.

No major marketer is going to expose themselves to the fall out from dodgy fuel.

A crooked dealer might, but that will usually have fall out as the fuel will damage dispensing pumps at which point grammer will start.

Dealers for major marketers are getting warning memos straight from head office.

Actually, marketers prefer bunkered diesel because it is 'heavier' so they can adulterate it.

Heck! A large section of diesel gotten in Nigeria are refined by these private refineries. These guys have gotten better at their refining process.

Don't argue what you know nothing about. There's a lot you won't even see in the media. Politicians even own these refineries and the network of fueling stations they supply to.
NNPC depots get from these private refineries.

Prove me wrong nah. I work with Indians, I have many of them in my Team from Punjab, Kerala and co. Even Mumbai and New Delhi have Slums.

I am talking from experience not just trying to score cheap points on NL. I listen and learn a lot from them about their Country, same as Pakistanis and Filipinos.

He will go back to his brothers but this time he has the bigger fish to fry so they'll comply. Peter Obi is PDP through and through and they have the structure he needs. Or else he will be like Azikiwe - a ceremonial president. You cannot make significant changes without the NASS as they collectively have veto power against the president. The few things he will be able to do will be by executive orders and who can he force to implement them? Law enforcement? The military? They won't fear him because he cannot make substantive appointments without that same NASS endorsing it.

Even the fact that NNPC can deduct what they like before making remittances is crazy but guess what? You need that same NASS to change the law concerning how deductibles from crude oil sales are collected. Will they do it? No way because NNPC pays them hefty bribes to keep the status quo. That is the vicious cycle we are talking about.

How much you buy petrol isn't my business. My business is to expose the erroneous assumption that illegal bunkerers aren't getting better at their refining craft.
I even exposed that they supply cheaper.

Much like you, this man had a similar expose about how the construction industry has no need for professionals. We all know how it ended.

Clowns with your mentality abound in this country, always claiming there is a shortcut or bypass or that long tedious process is unnecessary

It is clowns like you who celebrate the skirting of regulations, who are smart enough to bypass regulations but too stupid to know why they are in place, that are one of the fundamental issues with this country.

On this same thread your fellow obidients have been shouting about nnpc oil losses. But here you are bragging about the end result of stealing Nigeria's revenue , polluting the environment and sentencing generations to lung cancer.

I am sure after the community has finished tapping the pipe they will call you to picket the local oil company over 'devastation of the environment'

Later you will be writing long meaningless epistles about apc.

If you had anything going for you other than your phantom 'glorious gbola', you'd realise I am exposing the illegal refineries.

In December 2011, we got the then-Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State who became NDDC Chairman (2016 to 2018) and APC Governorship Candidate for Akwa Ibom State in the 2019 elections to stop all bunkering activities beginning from my LGA. We brought the Navy Base.

Next bunkering activities were reduced across all LGAs to the barest minimum , except in Mbo LGA which borders Cameroon and Cross River. That's why you'd never hear of militancy in Akwa Ibom.

I'm exposing these people because I know the environmental damage which follows such activities. But other states tolerate them and fueling station owners buy from them. Most.

Mbo LGA in Akwa Ibom, Azumini in Abia State, Omoku, Rumuokurishi, Rumuodara LGAs in Rivers State. These places have illegal private refineries and fueling stations buy from them from all over the country.
The authorities are in bed with these people so underreport the extent of the issue.


How does the construction industry relate to illegal refineries? You definitely have Tinubu's current mental capacity so I see the connection.

May the only thing glorious about your life always be your phantom gbola.

larride:
All three major marketers like Oando, AP, Total, Bovas are still selling fuel 180.

It's the small chain marketers that are jacking up the price of fuel.

Total in my hood sell at 169 but they have massively adjusted their pump, such that you are even better off buying at 250 elsewhere. I have reported them to DPR in the past, but nothing happened as they are still into that criminal act. A lot of people are now aware though, Nigerians are wicked and criminal minded by nature...

GloriousGbola:


Make up your mind what you are doing

Or are you another diagnosis patient in disguise?

Our own bipolar kanye west?

You were just celebrating illegal refining claiming it produces the exact same quality of fuel as dangotes billion dollar refinery

Yeah, I see this. Hoping I'd go on the defensive? I've done more for my LGA and state that you'd ever know. Than you'd ever be recognised for. Dîsstroy never goes on the defensive.

In fact, I was part of the team which interviewed the Deputy Governor as a teenager for a magazine that same December 2011.

A Chelsea faithful here and I had a spat in June 2021 in the Foreign Affairs Section, and one of the things which was revealed then was that I banded with other professionals from across my state to organise free skill acquisition programmes for indigenes to get employed in the construction and oil companies in my LGA and region since we had an agreement with them to employ these people.

That's one of the ways we have been able to find feasible solutions to the problem of bunkering and militancy in my part of the Niger-Delta.
All you have to do is local-search "pipe-fitting" in the Foreign Affairs Section to get the whole story. That's just a part of what I do for my LGA to keep tensions downand prevent some returning to oil bunkery and illegal refining.

You, on the other hand, have just kept reiterating you know people alleged to work in the oil industry while posting fuel kegs at intervals. Why you were allowed to breed is still a mystery. But Portable bred too so that's that.

You don't report to dpr. Dpr collects protection money from all stations.

You do one of two things. Contact their customer care by email with a detailed report. Station, time pump etc

Or you make a video right there where you make a scene. That video will get to their ogas at the top and there will be consequences down the line

If you don't like confrontation, you can find a way to make a discreet video.

This assumes the station is company owned. Some stations carry the logo and brand but are actually independents.

A bad industry practice as they always erode your brand.

When I said Lagos is one of the safest metropolitan cities in the world with its type of population, some butt munching ediots started attacking me cos they just can't think outside their emotions.

Lagos is too safe for the type of population it has.
Cities with way less number of people are crime ridden cesspool.
And Lagos used to be like that before 1999, where ghettos etc are no go areas.

People actually have no idea how big this record.

Lagos is not that safe bro, if you use public transport and leave home very early to beat traffic you will understand. No be the same Lagos Uber or Bolt drivers are now robbing their passengers at gun point, or the BRT dude that killed Bamise? If you are driving at night and you get hit from behind, it's best you don't come down cos you may be robbed on the spot. People get kidnapped in Lagos regularly too, but i do agree the crime here is not as high as other States.

Good-looks work though. It can get you certain audiences you wouldn't otherwise get in a professional setting because one is very easy on the eye.

My suspicion too, i couldn't do a video because i publicly accused them of the crime and a heated argument ensued. I am now a persona non grata at that Station, but a lot of people are now aware. I saw a man with Gerry can accusing the pump attendant of same crime recently, i just smile waka dey go my own..

The foolish Jerrycan boy asides who has been going on and on about my looks (which is queer because only women should get giddy about a man's good-looks), the issue is illegal refiners have gotten better at their trade, and government is in on it.

Even years ago, they upped from using drums to steel drums about the sizes of standard overheard tanks. These are controlled by rival militant groups. The Rivers State government is aware. Cross Rivers no longer produces oil but fuel stations buy fuel from other states in LGAs like Ikom and Obubra.

If I know this, you think the government doesn't know? Somehow it never makes it to the media because investigative journalism is deåd and politicians own stakes in them.

The comatose refineries Atiku privatised are an incentive.

I have seen these things firsthand at some point but some Jerrycan boy high on the fumes of petrol refined in places he doesn't know thinks he knows better than a person whose LGA rivers and seaside were almost turned to a haven for illegal refineries until everyone had to put a stop. But that's just one LGA and state.
What about others?

It is very funny to compare Nigeria with a country like India which has a dominant cross-ethnic indigenous language, a dominant religion, and THOUSANDS OF YEARS of intermingling, and on several occasions over the past millennia, instances of political union.

Most of the different ethnic groups have been in close social and political contact for at least 2.500 years and on a number occasions you had a single entity controlling most of the country BEFORE the British got there.

The major stumbling block to Indian progress was avoided when Mohammed Ali Jinnah and his people insisted on a separate Muslim state at independence. This could have been done in Nigeria if our leaders had insisted on the North and South gaining independence separately.

With all these, at the individual citizen level the average Indian is only marginally better of than the average Nigerian. India’s advantage is about size.

I have long stopped being surprised by the silliness to be found here from time to time.
