 Dangote Refinery To Supply 60 Million Litres Of Petrol Weekly To IPMAN To Boost Crude Imports The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has reached an agreement to supply 60 million litres of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) to the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) on a weekly basis, which translates to 240 million litres per month. This comes as the $20bn Lekki-based refinery seeks to raise billions of dollars to import crude oil and increase production to reach its full capacity of 650,000 barrels per day. IPMAN National Publicity Secretary, Chinedu Ukadike, confirmed that the association is finalizing discussions with Dangote and expects to start lifting PMS from the refinery before the end of November. The agreement has already led to a drop in petrol prices by N10 to N15 due to increased competition in the downstream sector following deregulation.

INDIAN MAN WALKED INTO A HOSPITAL WITH A LARGE SNAKE DRAPED AROUND HIS NECK. (PHOTO).


 A man in Bihar caused a stir at a hospital on Tuesday when he walked in with a large snake draped around his neck.

 The man, Prakash Mandal, had been bitten by the snake and brought it with him so that doctors could identify it and provide the correct treatment. The incident took place in Bhagalpur, where Mandal was bitten by a Russell’s Viper, one of the deadliest snakes in India.


Mandal, a 48-year-old daily wage worker, was sleeping at home when the snake attacked him. Fearing he might receive the wrong treatment, he caught the snake and took it to the Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College Hospital. He kept the bite on his right arm tightly wrapped to prevent the venom from spreading. By the time he arrived at the hospital, bystanders were shocked to see him with the snake around his neck.


Footage from the hospital showed people warning Mandal to keep his distance. He refused to let go of the snake, even while lying on a stretcher, only releasing it when doctors insisted they couldn’t treat him otherwise. His family, who had accompanied him, placed the snake in a sack while he was being treated.


The snake was later handed over to the forest department. The Russell’s Viper, which bit Mandal, is part of the “Big 4” group of snakes that are responsible for the most snakebites in India, alongside the Indian cobra, common krait, and saw-scaled viper.
