Attention Fuel Users by Niyijac(op): 8:46pm On Feb 05, 2025
Did you know that some fuel pumps might be charging you for more fuel than you actually receive? 😱

Recently, I conducted a simple test: I filled a 5-litre container, but the pump showed 6.26 litres! That’s 1.26 litres more than I actually got. When I filled my vehicle with 71 litres, I was charged for 15.14 litres that I never received! 💸

Here’s the breakdown:

Amount Paid: 75,114 at 999 per litre at NNPC filling station

Litres I Should Have Received: 75.19 litres

Litres I Actually Got: 60.05 litres

This means I paid for 15.14 litres of fuel that I never received! 😤 That is 15k!!![/right]

What can you do?

Test the Pump: Fill a small container (e.g., 5 litres) and compare the pump reading to the actual amount.

Report Issues: If you notice discrepancies, report it to the fuel station management or relevant authorities.

Spread Awareness: Share this post to help others avoid being overcharged.

Let’s hold fuel stations accountable and ensure we get what we pay for! 💪

How many do u want to report. The point is ,naija filling stations are the nos 1 cause of fuel pump failure. They dispense more of air than gas,it will take the pump almost 20secs to dispense drops,but the meter go dey count,e no go pause or hook.

Secondly,in nigeria of today,everyone is out there to Rob u. The police, army,road safety,vendors,wholesalers, local govt,state govt federal govt,artisans,doctors,nurses,gateman, pastor,alfa,dibia,lil kids,neighbours, relatives,just name it. U cant dodge them all,and u can't be perfect everytime. Allow them chop,shey u wan tell me say u never cheat anyone b4.
