Always blaming the head ....where did those leaders come from ? Is it not from this rotten society?

They are our children, uncles , aunties, mothers, fathers , brothers and sisters.

You can't expect to sow mango and reap orange .

Our leaders are the reflection of who we are as a people

An average Nigerian is greedy , want to reap you off , but are quick to blame the government for their wicked and foolish acts .

With most Nigerians attitudes, Nigeria can never be okay..

Charity begins at home .

It does not work like that, there are some bad eggs in every society, that's why we have the government to protect the good ones. We can only blame the people on their own responsibility to vote right.

Tell me, who is paying that organization that it's duty is to checkmate those filling stations? still the government.

If societies work like, then there will be no need for leaders, everybody will be on his or her own.

Please who should not encourage complacent for those agencies, we should always call a spade a spade.

MEGAWATCH:
You should have been asking yourself why the politicians who are the leaders has refused to punish those operators of the fuel stations who are cheating the public?

Most of you expect things to work when the head is rotten, my dear it's never possible.


😂😂😂

Politicians don punish themselves finish? Haven't you heard that everyone is a criminal plus including you. You think it's a joke abi?

Kelklein:
It's a pandemic and it's worrisome. 8 out if every 10 fueling station criminally adjust their pumps to underdispense fuel.

Just another symptom of how an average Nigerian wants to cheat another.

Despite the huge pump price, the managers of the fueling station still act in cahoot with the fuel dispensers to shortchange poor and hapless Nigerians who are already being severely battered by its own government they hardly notice all these small criminalities.

The top management and owners may be unaware of these goings-on

There's nothing special or new here, we are shortchange ourselves in our areas of work. All plus including you.

Those filling stations are already keeping the fine charged on every litre they under-dispense, so DPR should just go and collect its own share. Because there’s no way a station can keep under-dispensing fuel and not expect to be caught one day.

Which is why I mostly buy from Rano or Bovas, at least their pump still dispense accurately.

nkwoemeka:
People are extremely wicked upon the high cost of the commodity,, they still have the nerve to tamper with the meters, Nigerians are really suffering.

and to matters worse they will add 100 naira charges if you use POS to pay

A lot is just wrong here, a whole lot, from the process, the procedures, the products to the personnel.

It's is tiring.

It is pure wickedness to sell fuel at N1,400 and still under dispense it

The devil will be shocked at how wicked some Nigerians could be

Namaster:
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!

Correctly said.
But I don't like the approach of the NMDPRA. Why do we have to know. Just do your investigations and shut down and withdraw the license of any retail outlet found wanting. We don't want the announcement, we just want actions.

By the time 10 retail outlets are shut down in each state of the federation, the rest will learn to do the right thing.

We Nigerians are our own enemies but we can always shout at the government.

SmartPolician:
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

See them encouraging evil, continue. We deserve our leaders.

davidodiba:
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

Some will be pressing the pipe button severally while it is running

Nigeria's Economic Crime Victimization practices syndrome successive FMGNs since 1976 proliferated and perpetuated to date.....Who bells the cat now?

Earlier political and society crime victimizations by successive FGNs altogether not withstanding.......

If we don't solve the problems from the root . We will just keep going in circle....... corruption is embedded in most Nigerians , but do you expect them to do , when they get to the position of leadership, change to saints overnight? Are those our leaders from Jupiter?

You can't plant Banana and expect plantain

You mean, immediately after granting this news... Lols

Human beings by default are like that hence we have law and order, the blame should go to those that are charged with responsibility of maintaining law and order.
Everybody is not the same, maybe, the bad ones are many, hence the bad leaders but it is left for you to ask yourself which side you belong.
For me, I take responsibility for what is entrusted to me and another person should.

They should come to Lagos especially those extreme ends, Ikorodu,epe, Badagry POPC

Mathewrichard99:
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......

There are hardly fraudulent marketers but fraudulent management exist. Beside marketers that manages their business themselves and unregistered stations, no marketer allows under dispensing at his petrol station. I have not seen one that does. There is approved standards which marketers adhere to but some management of some outlets can be fraudulent.

If a station cheats customers, NMDPRA won't compensate customers that are being cheated. They only collect fine which most times becomes their personal income because they are most times resolved by negotiation and such funds don't pass through government channels.

Consumer protection can however fight for the right of the customer if their complaint about station not serving the public according to standards is proved.

NMDPRA are doing great work, no doubt. But some statements made for public attention should be scrutinized. It is their duty to licence and regulate petrol stations. They can withdraw the licence they issued a petrol station If they violates the rules stated in their act without anyone knowing. If they start making public statements and issuing threats regarding what is supposed to be their job, then, they are playing to the gallery. They should do their job without inciting the public against business owners.
