More Nigerians unwilling to embrace CNG-powered vehicle over safety concern

More Nigerians unwilling to embrace CNG-powered vehicle over safety concern

#image_title

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterChat With Us Live

The CNG-powered vehicle that exploded at NIPCO filling station in Benin, the Edo State capital, killing three and injuring many few days ago has doubled the numbers of intending users who were hitherto reluctant to switch their vehicles to CNG.

Majority of them cited safety concerns and feared the cylinder installed in their vehicle could explode.

Recall that the administration of President Bola Tinubu rolled out incentive to encourage Nigerians to switch from fuel to CNG, saying it is a cheaper alternative and available.

The FG also estimated it would reduce transportation cost and push back inflation in a way that would minimise the impact of subsidy removal.

But reports of the cylinder exploding in some part of the country has again cast doubt about the safety of users of the CNG powered vehicle, as more Nigerians have expressed unwillingnes to install the device.

Although, there are reports that the Edo CNG explosion was as a result of fake conversion kits and substandard cylinder used in the installation and conversion of the fuel to gas, but that may not be enough assurance to convince many who have already made up their mind not to install the CNG.

An intending user who pleaded anonymity contended that ” how can I possibly install a cylinder in my boot, what if an accident occurs, the cylinder may likely explode”

Another intending user said even though his is more concern of safety, he can’t possibly imagine converting the use of his boot for another purpose” How can I possibly use the boot of my car for another purpose. The boot is designed to carry belongings, FG should be more innovative. The system is something that need to be reviewed in such a way that a vehicle tank and not cylinder will be used “
