Fuel from Dangote refinery is set to save Nigerians ₦50

Fuel from Dangote refinery – Following the recent agreement…
Following the recent agreement between the Dangote refinery and independent oil marketers in Nigeria, estimates for fuel prices in Nigeria have been touted.
Price of petrol from the refinery is N940/litre and N990/litre for ships and trucks respectively.Price reduction may lead to gasoline prices dropping by N50 per litre.Agreement aims at ensuring steady supply of petrol and offering a cheaper product.
About 30,000 members of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria are reportedly set to begin lifting Premium Motor Spirits (Petrol) from the Dangote refinery, following the finalization of negotiations between both parties.
The bone of contention, particularly for Nigerians, on the subject has been addressed as IPMAN revealed that the price of petrol from the refinery was N940/litre and N990/litre when purchased using ships and trucks, respectively.
“Presently, we have been given two different arrangements on how to buy fuel from the refinery. There is the one that we can load the vessels and carry to our various depots at the rate of N940 per litre. Then for the depots, it is at the rate of N990 per litre,” IPMAN president Abubakar Garima, stated.
As reported by the Punch newspaper, the new price is less than the N960 and N990 per liter that the refinery disclosed last week for trucks and ships.
The IPMAN president also revealed that the agreement between the association and the refinery is intended to ensure steady supply of petrol as well as a cheaper product, which is set to be N50 less than imported petrol.
He clarified that the direct purchases from the refinery will do away with the need to pay middlemen like depot owners and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company.
The IPMAN president also noted that within the next few weeks, the price of gasoline will reflect these cost savings.
“The masses are looking for how we, Independent Petroleum Marketers, can reduce prices for them. So the price too will reduce because we are not buying through the third party.

So the profit that we have been giving to the third party like NNPC and depot owners will be reduced. That is the issue,” he said.
“For instance, the current price in Maiduguri now is N1,200 per litre. So with these current changes, it may likely reduce to N1,150, which is a reduction of N50. So that’s N1,150. It may even be below that,” he added.
Garima, however, noted that this price reduction could be a consistent trend if market forces remain favorable.
“And as we continue, you know, this thing, since it’s deregulation. Yes. As we continue. It can go down. It can go down continuously because, provided that the product is available, you may find that the market will come a little bit low, and then the naira will start appreciating.
And then if the crude oil price is reduced, automatically, the same thing will be reduced,” he explained.

Fuel hike, bad roads behind onion shortage – Anambra traders

Fuel hike, bad roads – Traders and buyers at…
Traders and buyers at Eke Awka Market, in Anambra State’s capital, have attributed the scarcity of onions to rising fuel prices and the country’s poor road network.
A News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) survey conducted on Tuesday revealed that onions, a key condiment used to spice food, have become increasingly difficult to find and afford.
Obigaeli Nwokoye, a petty trader dealing in onions, explained that a few weeks ago, there was no onion available in the entire market due to bad roads. She added that suppliers from the northern part of the country faced delays, as the high cost of fuel and poor road conditions hindered transportation and logistics.
“Drivers coming from Kano face major challenges, which delay their deliveries to Awka.
“The government should address these issues and give special attention to food transporters to ensure a steady supply of food items.”
Mrs Chioma Okeke, another seller, shared that the price of a bag of onions had skyrocketed to ₦370,000, compared to ₦258,000 in November. She further noted that the price had steadily increased throughout the year, from between ₦70,000 and ₦90,000 in January to ₦110,000 to ₦170,000 around August/October.
“From November to December, the price jumped to between ₦250,000 and ₦300,000.”
Mrs Doris Beluchukwu, a buyer, expressed frustration at the soaring prices and scarcity.
“Onions that used to cost ₦100 or ₦200 are now priced between ₦500 and ₦2,000,” she said.
She also urged the government to ensure its food regulatory agencies functioned effectively, as some of the food shortages might be artificial.
“Government needs to act quickly to ensure a steady supply of basic food items to markets across the country,” Beluchukwu added.

Free Slots: An accessible way to enjoy casino games

Free Slots: An accessible – According to statistics, the…
According to statistics, the revenue in the online gambling market is projected to reach 97.15 billion USD in 2024. This represents a revenue change of 14.1%. As more and more people want to enjoy the fun of the casino, it makes sense for online casinos to offer some games for free. In this article, we’ll tell you all about free slots and how you can access them for casino fun.
How Free Slots Work
Essentially, free slots are slot machine games that don’t cost you anything to play them. This means you can enjoy them as much as you want without worrying about spending any money. There are many benefits to this, of course. You can find your favorite games and enjoy them without the gambling element and you can try out new games to see if you like them before spending any of your hard-earned cash.
The games you can play will vary from site to site, just like their paid versions. You’ll get access to all of the common features like bonus rounds, free spins, and the progressive jackpot element if there is one. However, because you’re playing for free, anything you win will also be virtual, so there’s no chance of winning a payout—unless you’re using free spins from a no-deposit bonus, for example.
The Benefits of Free Online Slots
Free online slots have their advantages. Here’s a summary of why many people enjoy them:
It’s risk-free entertainment: You can play the games to your heart’s content without the fear of losing money being there.
Skill development: For slots that are more strategic or challenging, free slots and demo versions mean you get to practice your gameplay and familiarize yourself with the rules.
Work out how much you’d like to play with: When you play a game for free, you can test out its volatility and RTP (return to player) to see if it’s worth the risk of betting higher or whether you should stick to small amounts.
Diverse game selection: Free slots are available in a wide range of themes and styles. There are thousands of different ones available so you’ll always find something you enjoy.

Key Features to Look For in Free Slots
Ultimately, what you look out for depends on the individual, but some things will make the free slot experience better. This includes:
The graphics and sound: This enhances the gaming experience and some games are much better than others.
Return-to-player (RTP) percentage: Playing free slots allows you to test out games with different RTPs to see if you like playing them and they’re worth the risk if the RTP is lower.
Mobile compatibility: Trying out a game on a mobile device for the first time can be a bit hit-and-miss. Using a free version means you can see if it works well before spending your money.
Tips For Finding the Best Free Online Slots
To find the best free slots, you’ll need to look around. Some online casinos don’t allow you to play their games for free until you register while others are happy to let you try them out before you sign up.
Looking at online reviews by other players is also useful as you won’t then waste time playing games you know aren’t great. Also, there are plenty of sites that aren’t casinos that allow you to play games by top developers in demo mode.
The Potential Problem of Free Slots in Online Gaming
Realistically, software developers allow you to play their games for free because they want you to enjoy them. Online casinos offer free games to entice you to join and spend real cash. If you know this and are a responsible gamer, there’s no reason why you can’t have fun playing this way. All reputable sites have responsible gaming tools so if you do decide to stop playing the free versions, be sure to join a site that is licensed and reputable, then you have protection against problem gambling.
Conclusion
Free slots have so many advantages and as long as you’re aware of the potential downside and are a responsible gamer, there’s no reason why you can’t continue to enjoy free slots for as long as you want. These are an entry point into the world of online casinos but they can just be where you stop too. Free slots are a relaxed way of learning about casino gaming mechanics and can help you unwind.
