You sound like an illiterate in Nigerian politics. Tinubu like Awolowo was disatisfied with the Nigerian's political leaders from the north and their mentality. He hated the oligarchy system of the north. Ha proposed secession clause but was frustrated by his Benjamin brother, Zik. Igbos went for war while Awolowo went for aggressive educational campaign. Years down the lane, you can see the difference. The northern leaders using Islam to deceive and suppress their subjects. Islam is not bad. Islam contributes so much to education. So much. The oldest university is built by Muslims before the western world.

Today, the insecurities that wants to engulf the north is the product of the greed of northern politicians.


Tinubu once kicked against one Nigeria. War in not an option. He had to team up with other parties to wrest power from directionless PDP.

He had an agreement to rule after Buhari. Northern elements want to thwart it, in what led to' emilokan' using Abdullahi Adamu.

Greed showed up again. Gradually, military intervention is no longer an option in Nigeria.
The eyes of the middle belters are opening. If the north is not careful, in the foreseeable future, they will lose all like the northern Cameroon.

They believe that Tinubu being a Muslim share the same philosophy with them. Tinubu Is firstly a yoruba man before being a Muslim. He thinks as a any yoruba man of any religion.
He thinks about good quality of life for all.
Oga we are talking about the pros and cons of CNG why are you bringing politics and tribalism into it. I don't want to talk about politics, every leader meant well .

The government is talking too much with little action. For same distance of about 250 km by appro. N2500 worth of CNG, you will need about N10,000 worth of petrol or diesel. CNG is just about 25% of petrol or diesel. Imagine if trailers and buses cut their fuel consumption by 75%!. Imagine what the effect it will have on transportation of goods and people. And the effect on the economy.

So many opportunities waiting to be given the enabling environment and policy, and we are good to BLAST as a nation.
The government won't encourage it because it can kill NNPC business.

Which refinery? That of DANGOTE or that of FG? If it is government’s refinery you are talking about, my brother, FORGET ABOUT IT. It can never work again. May be it can work in another life sha.

I don’t think you know the level of decay at those refineries.
Something they have been collecting trillions of Naira on for over a decade and no single drop of oil was refined. You better don’t raise your hopes on that.

Bros! The refineries dint go bad, the crroks in government abondoned it so that they will keep stealing from importation and subsidy.

You dint get my point, if FG wants to sincerely cut import duties and make CNG affordable and readily available, they can sincerely make our refineries work and if it starts working, no Nigerian will bother about converting their vehicle to CNG fuel.

So how do you measure good governance your Emilokan was talking about restructuring then, shey he is in power now, restructuring noise has gone down. The Nigeria structure is deformed on it's own . Those people in the Red and Green chamber should all be sent home.

It is a dual fuel system. You maintain your petrol capabilities as an option.

my question is - what volume of your boot does the tank take?
is the tank fibreglass or steel?
what is the weight of a full tank?

my concern is that retrofitting a consumer car to CNG will reduce its utility - what space would be left in the boot of a corolla after conversion?
and is the tank delicate and capable of being damaged

Now this was a test product, I literarily have no trunk space.

Steel type one.

Tank is bulletproof. (Literarily)

Weight of empty tank is 67kg,

Inam currently doing a corolla and there's a lot more boot space (about 65per left)

Dey deceive yourself and be using lies to advertise CNG grin. Is it not same Akure i know? Did you pass through ilesha-Ife highway at all? If I could try it on generator and there was no significant difference, I wonder how it could work on automobile. When the cng was first being over-hyped here. I tackled the OP. Later when some Nigerians got carborateur and tried to convert their petrol gen to cng, they dropped the idea and kept silent.

Even in the USA, the country we used to copy in everything, there are barely 2,000 cng refuelling stations there. Today, petrol and diesel remain efficient means of powering automobile engines. Any Nigerian who falls for this lie the way they fell for the generator would only throw away money once again.
you have done no research, so keep quiet. Cng is different from LPG
