This hardship is real

Keneking:
Great
1. Low volume of circulation of money 2. Low attraction of diversion due to high cost 3. Drop in car purchase 4. Surge in demand for public transport system 5. Rise in sack of bank workers 6. Improved competition among retailers 7. Prioritisation of movement by road users 8. Ramadan period 9. Drop in corruption 10. Absence of subsidy payment 11. Confidence in APC govt to improve power

In my house we now use 600 naira petrol for 3 nights (7:30pm-past 9) or anytime the fuel finishes. People hardly drive around unnecessarily $ I have stopped going out except it's "very important". Also,those that use gen in my area like it's Nepa light have stopped.

adaweezy:
It ain't smuggling that caused the low sales,when I go to work everyday whilst passing Ikeja I discovered that traffic jams are rare and the only traffic this days is either caused by traffic light or accidents.
Cars are fewer.

ladyF:
which route do you take? Traffic still dey plenty o.

adaweezy:
Ikeja Along then MMA....
Normally cars use to move B2B on that road but this days it is just free.......

megainvest:
Of course. The volumes being smuggled out of the country have drastically reduced because the incentive has been removed.

Project400:
.

I do not think the new transition is worth celebrating. Reduction in PMS sales is not good for anyone. It is bad market to the CEO of gas stations, to the people, and to the government.

Akinfemiwa revealed that though Nigeria is a driving country with a lot of dependence on petrol for both passenger and commercial vehicles, there are strong indications that motorists have devised various means of using less petrol in view of the high cost.
1. We no de travel anyhow again,
2. We de go see bae once in a week
3. We no de use Gen over night again
4. We comfortably drive our cars without Ac
5. Comercial transport is still afforbable
6. Only few fill their tanks to the brim. Na 10 liters sure pass

TheTransformer:
Since I bought a 500 watts inverter and 200AH battery in May, I use 10 litres of fuel per week, previously I was using 4 litres of fuel per day (which is equal to 28 litres of fuel per week)!

PS: I am off the national grid. EKEDC (NEPA) cut my light in September 2015.

chronique:
Pls what type of gen do u use? 1500 petrol lasts me for roughly 5-6hrs a night(8-12pm). And I hardly have light at home. Most nights,I buy at least 2k fuel...

AntiWailer:
That is better

Instead of them claiming they paid billions of subsidy on Petrol nobody bought.

The right thing is to adjust when the economy calls for it is to sacrifice for the future.

I hope our useless leaders sacrifice too.

Eyop:
It depends on what you are powering with your Gen. An original Yamaha 950 sold by John Holt should last about 9 hours full tank which is just 4 litres of fuel.
