If you can believe this news, you can also believe that Tinubu did not forge his certificate!
These are the same people that come to Filling Stations in broad daylight, take measurement of their litre and go inside to collect envelope.

They BLAME Politicians.

But the WICKEDNESS and GREED of average Nigerians is UNPRECEDENTED.

The SHEER, UNBRIDLED GREED is too common in the common man.

These people already make INSANE money from their business.
And buyers already pay EXPENSIVE price for the fuel.

Yet they are still STEALING from consumers.

They charge EXORBITANT prices.
And still REFUSE to give people what they've PAID for.

By the time Dangote opens MULTIPLE RETAIL outlets across the country, these same RETAILERS shortchanging people will WAIL and MOAN about how Dangote should NOT be allowed to retail his products.

Absolute MADNESS!
bro, the government should look at the gas station as well, so much madness is going on there as well

MEGAWATCH:
The reason for being a leader in the first place is to lead and they refused to show leadership.

So why blaming the fuel stations when nobody is checking them to make sure they are doing what is right?


Oh common you can do better.


😎😎😎
What I wrote there was in simple English sentences, that a 8 old years child can read and understand easily.......

Are those leaders from the moon? Are they not from our rotten society.?

An average Nigerian always look for who to blame for their wickedness and greed..

The politicians made it possible.corruption everywhere. I could remember back in the days when taskforce go around town, checking and sealing filling stations that were playing that trick. They check their underground storages whenever there was fuel scarcity, to ensure that they were not hoarding products. They went along with their calibration to make sure the meters were accurate

They uncovered a crime, but no one's going to jail or losing their license.

i will just take it as You are not Expose

You see All over the World if Govt takes a nap/sleep or enter working working vacation mode ... People will do unto themselves shege

Govt act as the refree/VAR just as we see in football field they enfoce a system that monitor/mitigate A dont break B head and also B dont sell A

Look at the lawlessness xenophobia in south africa it is becos the govt and system look away see what people are doing to people

WE Blame not even the politicians We blame the Govt for being a deadbeat not doing enough to ensure consumer protection and no commitment toward sanity ... where the system us dead or compromise we see all kinds of consumer extort & expliotations

So yes ! Its Govt fault ... Players on field dont just behave well out of violition it becos of their is a Refree with yellow card, red card and can award penalty.

Imagine a match the refree is bought, You see one side gets away with anything and the team B are maltreated,

Your outburst Team A is wicked unfair bad people is just misplaced anger. Humans don't wana do right, argue from here to pluto that why system must stand active to enforce people do right undecided

Most comments here are from greedy Nigerians who believe they are being cheated.
NNPC stations are the worst in under dispensing and NMDPRA does not have one single petrol station under their name that they can use as standard.

Citizens pay fraudulent NMDPRA License fee to operate but you will still see unlicensed and unnamed black market stations operating without control and regulation. That is total failure if the agency.

Their members also indulge in fake license issuance. You pay your heavy license renewal fee but when you go to verify it, you discover it is fake. The worst is the agency blames you for the fake certificate even though it was issued by one of their own.

One thing Nigeria should know about this agency is that they are not getting the excess revenue from fraudulent activities they were running with NNPC. They are fighting tooth and nail to establish an illegal revenue channel and who would be the culprit, marketers. They plan on issuing threats or license revocation so that affected marketers will negotiate with them in fear.

They actually have no business with marketers because the industry have been deregulated. Customer who suspect marketers are under dispensing are meant to report the marketer to consumer protection for verification and possible penalty/competition. It is no longer the duty of NMDPRA.

There is also department of weights and measures in the ministry of trade and investment. They make sure marketers make use of accurate recommended scales and equipment.

Greed is really making Nigerians go against their own laws just to accuse someone else instead of taking responsibility for their actions.

The level of dishonesty or corruption in Nigeria is unimaginable. Meanwhile, we are some of the most religious people in the world. This country is beyond redemption especially with the kind of clueless, visionless and inept people we "elect" into government.
Re: NMDPRA Uncovers Fuel Under-Dispensing At Filling Stations Nationwide by Mathewrichard99: 7:18am On Sep 23
You write as someone in the industry that knows the deeper running processes. However, that doesn't say that you should relegate the action of NMDPRA in this issue of dispensing. Nigerians are being cheated at the filling station every minutes and there's little consumer protection can do, whereas, consumer protection might not have the technique to verify if we are being cheated or not. Support NMDPRA to checkmate all these unpatriotic marketers so that proper things can be done.....Industry been deregulated doesn't give any marketers the right to under-dispensing of products......

You have no idea of how crazy Nigerians are. I know a man whose business money of over 230 million was stolen. These men ran out of Nigeria. Interpol is on the matter . There is another friend I was talking to last week whose friend stole over 50 million of their business money and japa. There is a reason Nigeria is the way it is . It is the people . The politician come from the people. They are not imported .

Very wicked people, after paying for expensive fuel, they will still under dispense. Almost all the filling stations do this.
If you don't do it, you cannot make money in that business. You will be similar to a woman making 500k every month meanwhile you run a multimillion-naira business

This just another avenue for their task force to make money.
If anyone is caught, bribe will settle it and we will continue to suffer
Corruption is already institutionalized
So what do you suggest, that the agency goes back to sleep and allow illegality continue.

It’s this kind of make money mindset that breed greed among Nigerians.

You don't know much about the topic.
Even if Dangote takes over all station, is it not people that will manage it?
Shortchanging is everywhere and it can only be minimized. You can't eliminate it.

Re: NMDPRA Uncovers Fuel Under-Dispensing At Filling Stations Nationwide by davidodiba(m): 7:49am On Sep 23
The other day I was at a filling station buying fuel, the attendant had entered the amount I wanted to buy, before ever putting the nozzle in my tank, the dispenser was already reading without bringing out a drop of fuel. He looked ridiculous and ashamed as I had caught them red handed. Instead of the thieves to apologize,mthey were busy saying incoherence. I had to find another filling station who were smarter thieves...because all of them are the same. So painfully so
