@tbaba100
It’s a time bomb for a nation with very hot weather and poor fire brigade service.
@RhoMas22
Is it actually safe to have a gas cylinder under the passenger seat?
@ubonmarcus
Have you guys considered safety? God abeg ooo.
@Steve60933409
It’s not a safe practice at all. This is risky.
@owoadedeeway
But there prices are not getting cheaper.

Unfortunately they still won’t reduce their transport fares.
@Akin_Malaolu
It is important to measure the cost variations between routes using petrol and to the conversion to gas (CNG).
That is the economic development way of measuring cost variations.
We should not give kudos now until those cost variations are known. Thanks
@KayodeAbraham12
Next time be specific. Danfo buses in Lagos is an exaggeration blown out of proportñ. Where is CNG filling statñ frm Oshodi down to Toll-gate? Is d stretch of road not part of Lagos? Mention just 1. And of mention 2 CNG auto-conversion workshop along same axis??? One each will do.
@GbolahanObadime
Unfortunately, those drivers don’t reduce their fare. They still charge the same fare as others despite buying gas at least than 60% cost of petrol or diesel.
