E cheap nah, for just 93k.na small Toyota wey na 70 liter capacity she dey use. Like say na Benz wey get average of 120 liter capacity she for know how far. Lastly, na 2 cups of rice as APC palliative go sort her out
I wasn’t aware that there is a Mercedes-Benz passenger vehicle with a fuel capacity of 120 liters.

I used to believe that the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon had the largest fuel tank capacity among their passenger vehicles, which takes around 100 liters of fuel.

These are people who have attained certain level in life and are struggling to maintain their lifestyle. For him to be complaining means it's no longer acceptable. He cannot just park or sell off his car because the subsidy was removed.
That’s true.

sure, the reserve is extra 10 added to the 100 liters or in the case of gl series 15 liters for reserve.popsi ml 350 2003 model is 100 liters for fuel, then 10 liters for reserve =110

What is ur minimum wage compared to other countries?
Also, do other countries depend on fuel for generator and car and business?
I had two businesses, I shut em down because i was fueling the generators at the two stores, plus fuel for my house, plus fuel for my car. Omo, i wanted to run mad, I quit. Thunder fire this country, I dislike it with passion.
you shouldn't have honoured that thing with a reply . They are quick to compare Nigeria with other countries when it comes to issues like this, but when it comes to standard of living of citizens , the dunces say otherwise

LagosOrigin:
Many Nigerians have parked there cars permanently because of tinubu hardship

Tinubu should resign and apologize to Nigerians for his massive failure all around the country .

He's a disaster
The reality is just shining at Nigerians that we have been leaving a fake life all these while. Imagine, how can a reasonable government subsidises fuel with ₦1200 per litre in other for its price to come down to ₦200. Then some people will buy fuel while some will not buy for weeks, where is the equity? Only in Nigeria people buy cars and don't have money for fuel just like some people using i phones and have no money to buy data.

If u have money for Benz or any car u should have money for fuel to keep it running no matter the cost.

Talking about Tinubu resigning, Subsidy is gone. No government can ever reverse it because where are they going to get money to pay Dangote the balance of ₦1200 per litre if the price is to go back to ₦200. Even Obi or Atiku can never reverse it. The solution is to cut things u do to your size and have peace.

What I don't understand is, why this has not come to the attention of government.... if it is a government that cares.

Leaders of other countries and the government they administer have all come up with various strategies to help ease the pain of the worldwide disruptions on their citizens.

Ours are just playing blind, deaf, acting mute and burying it's head in the sand like an ostrich.
Poor quality governance.
Poor leadership.
What strategy has trump come up with in USA?
What strategy has uk come up with?
What strategy has other Europe countries come up with?

Aside from buying gas at high price, what strategy have those countries come up with?

If a vehicle manual stated that a vehicle has a 50-liter tank capacity. It means the total volume, including the reserve, is 50 liters, and nothing more.

I know most vehicles' fuel warning light usually activates or triggers when 5–10 liters remain in the vehicle.

A car's "reserve tank" is not a separate tank but rather the last 5 to 15% of fuel in the fuel tank that activates or triggers the low-fuel warning light.

The fuel in the reserve tank only serves as a safety net warning the driver to fuel up the vehicle.

Nigeria is currently facing a serious rise in the cost of living, and fuel prices are at the center of the crisis. Many Nigerians are now sharing their real-life experiences, and the situation is becoming alarming.

In this video, we highlight shocking reactions from Nigerians who say that ₦100,000 is no longer enough to fill a car fuel tank. One individual revealed spending over ₦93,000 just to fill up, while another claimed to have spent more than ₦300,000 on fuel in just one week. These are not isolated cases — they reflect what millions of Nigerians are going through daily.

With unstable electricity supply, many households and businesses rely heavily on fuel to power generators. As fuel prices continue to rise, the cost of transportation, food, and basic living also increases. This has led to growing frustration across the country.

Some people are even pointing out that major roads, including the Third Mainland Bridge, appear less busy than usual — a possible sign that fewer people can afford to move around like before.

I expected by now his supporters would've realized th y made a big mistake by electing Tinubu ... see how they were fooled with promises of a better life ..... but instead Tinubu had made matters worse and show no interest in turning things around. But these are the same people willing to elect him again ...hoping for a different result. On subsidy .... we have crude and we have a refinery that can fulfill local needs. Why can't the FG supply Dangote with crude at a lower price and subsidize. the cost of fuel produced by Dangote? Instead he's allowing the importation of oil. Again....we need a coup ...and thesegreedy politicians put on trial for corruption and embezzlement.

SmartPolician:
Why should Nigeria have a business with all these nonsense you are mentioning?

Nigeria consumes about 60 million litres of petrol per day, which is less than 400k barrels of petrol. Dangote refinery alone can refine 650k barrels of petrol per day.

Why does Dangote only contribute less than 40% of our locally refined petrol? What are Tinubu and APC people not telling us?
So how do think dangote source his crude?

Are you living in a cave? The Tinubu Government has already rolled out plans to ease the pain due to the worldwide disruption. Tinubu has ordered the release of bags of rice from the National grain reserve to ease the pain and discomfort among the citizens, that was caused by the closing of the strait of hormuz

To think that some poor and wretched in this country still wants this wicked man to continue to rule this nation all because of rice and salt.

God forbid evil.

Even if u don't like your life pls,consider ur unborn children...must dey suffer the way u are suffering?

This man is not what Nigeria needs now...for the late Buhari to be better than Tinubu means,this man has no reason to be close to power.
Please mention a name of the who we should vote in the next election so that we can follow.


Thanks
