1. For manual transmission, while driving ensure to leave gear 1 and 2 as soon as possible, the other gears save fuel much better.

2. There is really no need for air conditioner at the moment, you can survive without it. Wind all your 4 windows down, Natural breeze go enta. Economy hard!

3. Endeavor to switch off the engine during heavy traffic.

4. Consider trekking at times
You own a car doesn't mean you drive it everywhere, set your priorities right!. Stuffs like going to pick up chick's, or cruising around town should be put on hold.

5. All v6/v8 cars should be parked for now. I believe anyone who has a v6/v8 car should also have a small car parked somewhere. Use that one instead.




Abeg driver's in the house, feel free to add yours.

6. Those who 'steped-up' from riding motorcycles should put it back on the road.
Everyone should consider having a motorcycle at this period; they are very economical than you may think.


its good to go for a power bike, its safer; if u dey fear, then consider any of the fashionable motorcycles around (lady machine).

(7) make sure you call and confirm before going out

Off your car engine whenever there is free

@No 2, you never dey for beta hold up in Sokoto or Zamfara else they wouldn't tell you to use AC.

Use gas instead, it's far better,it's commodity is never scarce. some people use both PMS and the gas to augment the use.

Better trek for Buhari

I remember Obj's tenure when something like this happened, Ojo Madueke as transport minister promoted the use of bicycles. Sounded funny and odd buh made some sense. Now that's a thoughtful government.
Contrast that with the present government officials, while one is flying about in our presidential fleet, another is flying private jet while another tells us to "endure or die, cos hez not a magician , while yet another continues his series of lies by telling us "The president feels our pains ", a president who didn't consider it necessary to discuss the budget at the FEC with his ministers (for less than 2hours) yet has made out time to travel to China tomorrow(a journey of more than two hours) .
How did we get into this mess?

Don't go out @ all that is the best way to preserve ur fuel currently except if it is gonna bring money to u because u re spending twice on fuel nw

How about you oily hypocrites take to the streets and stage a protest similar to the one staged during Jonathan's regime.


This country will NEVER move forward. If you've got your means, leave this cesspit and don't come back.




On judgement day, I'd just hold a nigerian flag to show God and his angels that I've been to hell already

Op, please explain more on Number 5

Na that V6 part concern me.

Is It Because It Is Buhari? I marvel at the way and manner we think in this country, worst of it the way they think in the north. It is just a few months ago that we all continually lambasted president Jonathan's cluelessness, people referred to him as the "drunken master of Otuoke", and nobody harassed me, and now because they fear the power of the media that brought them to power they want to castrate the social media, with Buhari firing the first shot in an interview with Sahara reporters' Adeola in New York, why, Is it because it is Buhari? We demonstrated against pump price increment for petrol, government of president Buhari wants us to swallow the same pill we rejected a few months ago, yet some of my northern compatriots see nothing wrong with that, Is it because it is Buhari? When three sons of Sheik Zakzaky were murdered during the Jonathan administration, El-Rufa'i called it genocide by the jonathanian army, now under Buhari more than 200 are killed, their mosque and houses destroyed under Elrufai's nose as Governor of the same state, he has not called it genocide by the Buharian army, Is it because it is Buhari? Under the Jonathan administration subsidy payments were termed as fraud, and there were hues and cries to crucify oil marketers, Buhari even called it a fraud himself, we also thought so, six months later the same Buhari is paying for subsidy yet nobody is calling it a fraud, why, Is it because it is Buhari? We criticized Jonathan for keeping a large fleet in the presidential fleet and wasting monies on maintenance, only recently President Buhari's spokesman admitted 2 billion Naira was spent on their maintenance, when other Presidents are even doing away with their jets, yet we sit down and watch helplessly, Is it because it Buhari? Fuel scarcity is biting harder, value of the Naira is going rock bottom, inflation is now on auto pilot, while profits are dropping, purchasing powers are becoming weaker, yet we are asked not to query them, Is it because it is Buhari? If we criticized Jonathan for cluelessness, we will also criticize Buhari for helplessness. While tribal and regional jingoists see nothing because it is Buhari, what I see first is Nigeria and not whether Jonathan is a southerner or Buhari is a Northerner. We Cannot continue to be trapped in the closet of tribalism, regionalism and religious bigotry yet expect our country to remain one and grow. Yes! we might be of different orientation and background but what is good is good anywhere any time and what is bad is bad. I cannot be suffering and keep smiling because "my brother" is the President.
