For someone who once championed tough economic reforms, it’s ironic to see him sidestep now that these policies are in motion. His relevance fades when he prioritizes perceived estrangement over the nation's progress. The reforms he once endorsed are gaining traction, and this moment is less about Sanusi’s approval and more about collective action.

Sanusi's remains his own personal property, so why is FG wailing that he is not giving his to their policies ?

If they were firmly sure that those policies or reforms were yielding the right kind of fruit for the citizenry, they would not be squawking around seeking outsiders to them.

In fact, the people would be applauding them.

Let FG stop this propaganda and their gimmicks. There is hunger everywhere. Those reforms are only increasing the hardships in the land.

As at today, 6 people have asked me for financial handouts as their businesses have collapsed due to this FG's so-called reforms.

Tinubu was an average governor. If you say he was an excellent governor, then, Fashola or Ambode are what? Fashola and Ambode performance covered the mess of his governance. He was more into politics than the true governance. The only governor in trb the history of Nigeria to have used three deputies in the space of 8 years reign. If he has governed a state with less effects and resources, a state like Osun or Kogi he would have been a total failed governor. Everything he did, no average governor that doesn't do that base on the resources at their disposal. The man was more into real politics than governance during his stint as a governor.
So very true. All those other governors he installed in the southwest that he told to follow his plan, what happened? They failed abysmally.

Aregbesola was a dynamic failure in Osun who couldn't pay salaries throughout his tenure. He only built a few bridges.

Dapo Abiodun despite his two has been a failure in Ogún state, as his state has some of the worst roads in the Southwest after Èkìtì.

Ondo state nkọ́? The least said, the better. That state has nothing to show for all the years APC was in control, as their late governor was teleguided by Tinubu.

Only the creation of Amotekun saved the reputation of Akeredolu back then. On all other areas especially healthcare, his istration scored zero.

Not true. Don't say what you don't know.

You are the one who needs to educate himself. You don't know much about Autogas conversion if you say it is not true. Go to Poland and buy an OEM approved conversion kit. Then compare it with the ones bought in India, China etc.

You will see the difference in price, quality and even after sales technical .

@laudate, how's it going?

You probably are NOT aware that @Gazzuzz [David Omoregie] ed on in August 2024 from the injuries he sustained in a road accident while coming back from Benin City to Lagos after delivering a car to a client of his. Reading all the NL tributes about him since I first learned about his translation to a "higher state of vibration," it shows that he CLEARLY touched the lives of a lot of folks.

You can read more in the link BELOW which hit the main NL frontpage.

Fortunately, others will continue to keep his CNG ecosystem dreams alive since that space is a greenfield and it's the cheapest fuel for transportation and industrial use that can be used to lower the cost of production and reduce hyperinflation if clearly implemented in any gas-rich country.

Cheers.

All I know is that my cousins are from Ondo state and my jaws dropped when I attended my cousin's traditional wedding and she came out dressed like a Bini bride!!!! Apparently, brides from Owo in Ondo state dress like Bini women! Go back and do your research, some parts of Yoruba land are practically Bini, the intercultural exchange is unmistakable!
Benin actually conducted raids on Ọ̀wọ̀ in Indo State in the ancient times. Folklore and songs, which tell of the period of invasion abound.

The truth is that the above cost from these firms are quite outrageous. You can do your CNG conversion at NIPCO stations for NGN750,000 for 4 cylinder engine with 55kg tank and NGN775,000 for 65kg tank. 6 cylinder cars with 65kg tank cost about NGN815,000.

Those prices are for the generic CNG conversion kits and NOT the OEM-compliant ones, which the car manufacturers have approved as compatible with their cars.

Go and check the price of OEM kits bought in Poland and other parts of Europe, with those generic off the shelf types made in India and some other places.

You also need to make sure the Autogas cylinders are not expired. Lifespan of Autogas cylinders is 10 years.

There's nothing wrong in having an iyaloja in Edo state. It'll only make them unite to achieve a common goal.

Did they ever tell you they needed one? And haven't they been achieving their goals all these years? Why can't you people mind your own business, and stop interfering in places where you have NO business, and nobody needs you?

Traders in Edo markets, know how to organise and coordinate themselves.

Tell Folashade Tinubu-Ojo to leave them alone, and to stop being greedy.

CNG is different from LPG. it's currently being sold from between ₦230-300

Try to be smart. There are over 3,000 fuel stations in Nigeria. How many CNG refueling stations exist nationwide? Less than 25 places.

Secondly, you need two litres of CNG to cover the same distance that 1 litre of petrol will cover.

If the price is 230 per litre for CNG, then you will use 460 naira to cover the same kilometre that a 700 naira litre of petrol will cover.

Let me tell you the bad part, because CNG stations are far away, you will burn more CNG to cover that distance to refuel, your car.

The savings are too neglible and few to make sense.

Finally, the worst part is that CNG prices will soon increase. And soon, whatever savings you thought you had, may get wiped out.

Last but not the least, you will still look for 1.2 million to 1.6 million to convert your vehicle BEFORE you can use CNG.

This is a commendable move by the FG. Investing N900bn in CNG vehicle conversion is a step in the right direction for our environment and economy.

Imagine the reduction in emissions and the boost to local industries! This initiative could create jobs and enhance our energy security.

It's high time we embraced cleaner energy solutions, and this shows that the government is serious about making sustainable changes. Let's hope they follow through effectively and involve local manufacturers in the process.

Kudos to the FG for thinking ahead!

Some of you are so unintelligent that it defies belief!

Since 2016 less than 20,000 vehicles have been converted nationwide to run on CNG Gas.

Most states do not have infrastructure for delivery and fueling of gas. So what do they want to use to refuel such vehicles?

To convert a vehicle to CNG is over 1.2 million naira per car. Who has that kind of money to waste these days?

They want to convert 750,000 vehicles within 3 years. How?? With what??

Your country does not manufacture one inch of the CNG conversion kits, so what are they going to do? They will import. With which FX?

Buhari promised to deliver 1 million Autogas conversion kits to Nigerians in 2020. Till today, what happened? Nothing.

The whole of Western Europe does not even manufacture up to 1 million kits in one year. It is not possible.

You people should stop insulting our senses with this shameless propaganda, please.

Fueling stations greed.
Imagine #400 naira profit on a litre.
And na Dem dey evade tax well well.
How I wished Shango can just visit all these mad people, so that we can have some sanity in this country.

It is not fueling stations greed. Price from Dangote may be a bit lower, but when you load at the depot you will still pay NUPENG charges, truck hire fees, PPPRA charges etc.

All this adds up, at the send of the day.

Cost of hiring a truck is now high. Not all fuel stations own their own trucks.

Even the ones who do, must fuel and maintain it. All this adds to logistics costs at the end of the day.

And the same costs are added to the sales price of the fuel at the stations.

It is even becoming increasingly expensive, to run a station properly.

You need to factor in cost of diesel for the generators at the station. You cannot change prices at the pump, when you change over your power supply to gen, after DISCOs take light.

Another thing is that state govt taxes have increased. Go and find out out much LASAA, LASPA etc are charging for signboard and car parks in Lagos.

Local government taxes nkó? Those ones are constant.

Abeg, forget this APC government. As they are giving 1 drop of ease to you with one hand, they are using 2 or more hands to take away the same benefits, through the back door.

Great topic of discussion.

Diesel (compression ignition) conversion to CNG (spark ignition)

Full CNG conversion would involve replacing

Head cylinder
Pistons
Timing and ignition components
Introduce a distributor.

Aim to run engine on CNG . Only other fueling that can be introduced is petrol.

Is the other option petrol?

No, there is no other option. Only CNG was adopted as a mono-fuel.

Oga, you need to read my previous post with an open mind.

Every detail was covered and the whole conversion was clarified.

diesel engine , retrofit CNG .

Blending a mixture of intake air and natural gas , aim to bring down the amount of diesel burnt.

Same compression ignition engine used. Ecu and CNG injectors introduced to monitor performance.

When you run out of CNG , system switches back to diesel .

When you run out of diesel system shuts down

Is this what you are talking about?

No, this is not what I am talking about. After the retrofit, there is no diesel usage in the vehicle. Only Autogas CNG is used all through, because it is a mono conversion.

Diesel tank is even taken out. So nowhere to store diesel in the vehicle.

Dual-fuel conversion will mean that the vehicle uses both diesel and CNG, and can switch between both sources of fuel.

No one does a mono retrofit for CNG in vehicles.

You would know that if you researched.
I have seen people who do a mono retrofit for their petrol and diesel engines, in order to convert to gas. Stop talking about what you do not know.

I have friends who work for an Autogas company in Lagos. I was even part of one of their workshops in Lagos in 2021, and we saw vehicles they converted to run on mono Autogas CNG.

The owner of the vehicles was an expatriate who was tired of their drivers stealing diesel from their large trucks, and siphoning petrol from their official cars.

Their factory was already running on natural gas as they were located close to a pipeline in Ogun state.

Nonsense .... Anytime gazzuzz talks about CNG....ask him for the explicit conversion costs.

He will only give you the price in USD, and not in naira, so that people will not easily be able to get clarity on the costs.

There is NO component of the CNG conversion kit, that is manufactured locally.

How much do people earn? That they will spend over half a million or more to convert their vehicles?

Gazzuz is just promoting his new found business.

He is not interested in whether it is a sustainable solution or not.

I advise people always to do a dual-fuel conversion that can use both CNG and petrol, and NOT a mono-fuel conversion that uses only CNG.

Otherwise, if CNG runs out in your car and you are far from an Autogas CNG station, you will be stranded on the road.

Just rent a towing van when this happens to you....
