I support this govt, confirm from my posts. But this story doesn't make any sense. And your comment doesn't make sense either.

The emboldened texts in your comment above is completely at variance with the narrative behind the so-called CNG. Cos if your engine rating and design is what determines if you are to benefit from the cheap fuel, how then is it to the benefit of the common man? The common man and the big men, who drive cars with better engine designs and engine rating

With my little knowledge of automobiles,I believe the CNG should be able to power the light engines,such as most transporters vehicles[/s]

It’s been functional I am in Benin city and I know this for a fact. Most Audi80 cab drivers use it and there r fill up stops at various points in Benin city. It’s real n has been on for close to 10 years now

You know nothing about CNG

1) Compressed Natural Gas is actually cleaner than petrol, so it's good for the environment.

2) Nigeria has much more natural gas than crude oil, in other words, we have more gas than petrol.

But there's a problem.


If you check my posts above, you'll notice that this is not a new idea. This issue has been talked about from time to time since the 1980s.

The issue is, who is going to convert the cars from petrol burning cars into compressed natural gas burning cars? Who is going to provide the filling stations?

These are the questions and unfortunately they have not been answered in this write up.

There is nothing like side effect Mr hater,
Your engine ratings and design will determine if you can use it or not.
Just like the jet engines,diesel engines etc

My problem with us is that we never celebrate achievement neither pray for the best for this country, I have read the comments and most were negative, hating and abusive, and we expect good things to happen to us. I say it's a welcome development and I pray it sees the light of the day and for those hating please don't buy the fuel when it eventually comes, bunch of hypocrites. mumus!

Obiaksnews:
I see a lot of people are confused about the CNG fuel being proposed, if you actually stay in Benin you won't be surprised or confused about how it works. CNG is simply gas made for car use. At a time a lot of commercial vehicle users in Benin were encouraged to use the CNG as it was more economical and i can attest to the fact that a lot of people embraced the idea. Both commercial and private vehicle owners, it is cheaper to use and can be used for weeks if you have a full tank, and yes there is a filling station here in Benin city where you can drive in and have your tank filled, if the federal government can invest in it, it would be a welcome development.
