NNPC to Reduce Fuel Imports as Dangote Refinery Commences Production

In a significant development for Nigeria’s energy sector, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL) has announced its plans to curtail the importation of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), commonly known as petrol, once the Dangote Refinery begins full-scale production in late July or early August. This decision comes as the country looks forward to meeting its domestic fuel requirements and achieving energy security. For years, NNPCL has shouldered the responsibility of being the sole importer of petrol into Nigeria, as other oil marketers ceased importation due to challenges in accessing US dollars at official rates. However, with the operationalization of the Dangote Refinery, which boasts a processing capacity of 650,000 barrels per day, the landscape is set to change.

Davido and Wizkid may have called it truce for the umpteenth time. Two of Nigeria's biggest music stars Davido and Wizkid. (Daily Post) Nigeria's biggest music stars Davido and Wizkid may have set aside their differences as they were spotted hugging each other at a nightclub in Lagos. The two who have had a very bitter-sweet relationship for years hugged each other in the presence of their crew members. Wearing a white T-shirt and red face cap, Davido and Wizkid kept whispering into each other's ears as they hugged for what seemed like forever. This is not the first time Davido and Wizkid have given the impression that they do not have any beef.In 2017,  Wizkid brought Davido on stage  during his concert at Eko Hotel and Davido returned the favour that same year at his concert. However, they have been at loggerheads for years over reasons best known to them.

THREE WAYS YOU CAN LOSE CONTROL OF YOUR FACEBOOK ACCOUNT There are actually three different possible scenarios. Scenario 1.

A child asked his father, "How were people born?" So his father said, "Adam and Eve made babies, then their babies became adults and made babies, and so on." The child then went to his mother, asked her the same question and she told him, "We were monkeys then we evolved to become like we are now." The child ran back to his father and said, "You lied to me!" His father replied, "No, your mom was talking about her side of the family." My friend thinks he is smart. He told me an onion is the only food that makes you cry, so I threw a coconut at his face Q: Is Google male or female?

Over 40 migrants reported dead in Sahara after truck breakdown

Image
Six survivors walked to a remote village where they said that 44 people, mostly from Ghana and Nigeria and including three babies and two other children, died of dehydration, according to the department head for the Red Cross in the Bilma region. In one of the most perilous parts of the journey, thousands of migrants each week are crammed into pickup trucks for the days-long ride from Niger into Libya, often with only enough room for a few litres of water. (TRT World and Agencies) More than 40 West African migrants died in the Sahara desert this week after their truck broke down in arid northern Niger, the Red Cross said on Wednesday. The Red Cross, which said "at least 44 migrants have died," has dispatched a team to the site "to gather information" on the circumstances. "The number of migrants who died in the desert is 44 for now," said Rhissa Feltou, the mayor of Agadez, a remote town on the edge of the Sahara that has become the smuggling capital of Af...

Bitcoin prices fall to lowest in months after US Fed remarks

Image
  Bitcoin prices have fallen to their lowest level in months following remarks from the US Federal Reserve. The crypto-currency dropped in value from $47,000 (£34,700) earlier this week to less than $42,000 (£31,000) per digital coin. It follows minutes from a meeting of the Federal Reserve, which suggested it may raise interest rates. Political events in Kazakhstan have also raised concerns about the network's capacity. Because of its global and decentralised nature, attributing a rise or fall in the price of Bitcoin to a single cause is difficult. But many commentators have pointed to  the release of the Federal Reserve's December meeting notes  as one factor. The minutes suggest that America's central bank might raise interest rates sooner than some had anticipated, and sell off some of its assets. That could have led to a knock-on effect of traditional investors who hold Bitcoin, as they pursue less risky assets instead. At the same time, a huge amount of the world'...
