Why Do Fuel Stations Charge For Kegs?

"Now and again, I ponder in the case of being a Nigerian is a wrongdoing. We are not given power, which ought to be the significant need and commitment of any genuine government to its subjects. When we try to give same to ourselves, we are surcharged for doing that. What is our wrongdoing in this nation?" Those were the questions on my mind as  I leave a filling station angrily for being charged for bringing a keg to a filling station.

I am sure many people have asked this question all over again, why all these petrol attendants dey charge for kegs or gallons. I have asked this timeless and no answer is forthcoming as it seems to be a norm in all petrol stations in Lagos, it is as if they are taking their own tithe or should I say tax from your fuel, imagine buying a fuel of 1,000 naira and you end up getting 950 naira the 50 naira is the money for bringing keg to the filling station. I once asked a manager of a station one day why this and he smiled and said "You need to encourage the boys, those changes are morale booster for them". This, unfortunately, has become a trend and the order of the day by petrol stations’ attendants across the state.

The most annoying thing is that this charge does not apply to people who go to the filling stations in their cars to buy the product. As long as you walk into the station with a keg to buy fuel you are bound to be surcharged and that's why the question, why the charges and what can we do to curtail this theft that has eaten deep into the system

TBS BRT Bus Terminus: Is This The Best Bus Station In Nigeria?

March 2017, The Lagos State Government commissioned the nearly and upgraded TBS BRT Bus Terminus for public use. The terminus can best be described as world class as it has all the facilities to make your waiting a fun and relaxing one. The roofs were made of trampolines and also there was sound system to make sure there is dull moment, the best part of the terminus is that the place is always neat as the cleaners were always on standby to make sure that the place is tidy. The terminus share boundaries with Muson center, Victoria Island and also Awolowo Road. AutoReportNG embarked on a sightseeing adventure last weekend and what we see is quite impressive, there is still hope in this country after all. Based on the architectural structure, the design and how tidy the place is, we can boldly say that this is the best bus station in Nigeria if you have any contrary opinion, we are willing to learn from you.
