I noticed a disturbing trend in total filling stations the last few times i went to buy fuel. when i asked the attendant to fill my tank,i was told that i had to buy their insecticide for 500 naira. Failure to do that meant i had to buy nothing more than 2,500 naira worth of fuel.

After quarreling and all,I had no other option than to buy the insecticide because I needed to fill my tank. The next time I went to another total filling station, I was met with similar conditions. I demanded to see the manager who reiterated the terms.I felt frustrated but I had to buy.

I don't know if this is only applicable to total filling stations located in calabar. Also,is this legal or are they just capitalizing on the fuel scarcity to sell their insecticides to desperate citizens?

Who else has experienced this?

People ain't buying that product, so they had to push it out via that meaans. I experienced it last year tho.

That's true, nobody is buying that product but forcing it on customers is just wrong...
