It hurts Alot when, you're in country with Crude Oil as a natural resources, but still having fuel Scarcity. The story is still NOT clear about what's actually going on in my country
Y'all know I'm a legal indigene of the country named "Nigeria π³π¬" popularly known as "Giant of Africa" Nigeria is crowned "Giant of Africa" because they belief, it's the most dominating country in Africa, as at then. But verily I speak unto to you, as at now, Nigeria isn't the Giant of Africa Because we aren't gigantic over anything in Africa anymore. Rather, we are gigantic to corruptible acts and other violence acts. Since I was born, I was able to witness the reign of presidency in the "People Democratic party" (PDP). During the reign of this president, all was going on well, but lives of people were terminated. Because other parties are finding way to takeover the reign from PDP.
Fuel Scarcity
After waking to a new dawn this early morning, I woke up seeing my phone dead, it has shutdown due to lack of electricity from the PHCN. My power bank which ought to serve me for the whole day, is as well drained by one of my family members. So I couldn't come online or even do anything with my Smart phone, I'm addicted to my phone because I can't do without it the whole day.
I picked up our petrol keg to just to go to the filling station and get some fuel, to fuel our Generator so that we can actually power our smart phones and other machines working electronically. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't see fuel at the filling station. I was informed by those in charge of selling petrol that, there have been Scarcity since Monday. Though I noticed, that few bike men are passing by, unlike a normal day, where you will be seeing bike men of great multitude.
This fuel Scarcity has caused so many things which greatly affects end users:
Appreciation in price of Commodities
Flunctuation of price of goods
Restriction of movement
High goods purchase rate
Addition of price to transport fee
Lot of Queues in the filling station!
Another weird thing about my country is that, on that very yesterday, I saw two tankers of Petrol delivering Petrol to those filling stations, but they just decide not to sell those fuels including Diesel. We are not buying Diesel at the rate of NGN 800, so high in price. Where is Nigeria actually heading to? It's becoming too much of this country.
I don't know why we keep suffering for petrol when we have it here in our country. What if we don't have it here, what if we are importing it, that means it gonna be hell for us all over here! I know some other related countries will be facing this as well
Conclusion
At this point in time of this present moment in Nigeria π³π¬, we are really suffering from Petrol, diesel, kerosene, and other by product of crude oil. I pray they turn up to this great problem of ours.

I am tried of this country and I am not capping. I know the stress I went through just to get fuel for the car and the gen two days ago. I won't make excuses for this country anymore. When they want to increase the price that's what they do. The government make it sound like the oil marketers are independent so we won't know they are the ones behind the hike in price to grace their private pockets. It's tiring.
