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

Waking up to a new dawn seeing fuel Scarcity, in a country which fuel is seen as natural product

Y'all know I'm a legal indigene of the country named "Nigeria πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬" 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

We waited for some hours but unfortunately, we couldn't find just a Litre of Petrol

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

It's in hardship we get to see a Litre of Petrol. Photo from me! Offset

Conclusion

At this point in time of this present moment in Nigeria πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬, 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.

The country seems to get worse day by day. Just don't know the cause. But I think our government are the base problem we're having. It's only that can intervene into this.

There was a time a man invented a car that uses water to operate its engine, the man tried selling it product but many people believe it was fake, after some time, he died mysteriously and his final words were "they poison me" to his brother, till date, the mystery wasn't solved and the engine was bought by some people "unknown people" that was the year oil was selling afresh and many people are making millions from it.. Till date, we haven't gotten our water engine car cause some people are still making money from fuel scarcity

Gas, crude oil is one the blood of economy in 21st century without it economy will fall. The high price of crude oil in each country is affected by international decisions and manipulation. That's why here in our country we are thinking a more feasible source of energy rather than depending on crude oil.

That Giant of Africa that you put, is really frustrating, we are no longer giant but dwarf to other countries we have been claiming giant to. I was surprised when I saw the news and festive period is close by, people will really go through stress during that time.
