 Petrol Price: Five major ways to reduce fuel consumption By Samuel Oamen Petrol pump prices rose to N998 and N1,030 per litre on Wednesday at various outlets of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) in Lagos and Abuja, respectively. The recent development comes after the NNPC decided to terminate its exclusive purchase agreement with Dangote Refinery. Here are five ways to reduce fuel consumption 1. Use AC when driving at higher speeds: While it might seem counterintuitive, driving with your windows down at speeds above 80km/h can actually use more fuel due to increased wind resistance. In this case, it’s more efficient to switch on the air conditioning—your car will glide more smoothly without the extra drag. 2. Accelerate smoothly: Rapid acceleration and revving your engine to high RPMs might feel powerful, but it guzzles fuel. A steady, smooth acceleration keeps your engine running efficiently and helps conserve fuel, making your drive easier on both your w...

 Palestinian death toll passes 42,000 in Gaza The number of Palestinians killed since the beginning of the Gaza war over a year ago has risen to 42,010, according to figures released by the Hamas-run Health Ministry in Gaza on Wednesday. A further 97,720 Palestinians have been injured since October 7, 2023, the ministry said. The figures do not distinguish between civilians and fighters and cannot be independently verified, but international organisations such as the United Nations consider them to be largely credible. The recent advances in the north were reportedly primarily directed at the Shejaiya district in Gaza City and the refugee settlements of Jabalia and Nuseirat. Palestinian rescue workers described the attacks as extremely intense, saying that in most cases they could not reach the injured due to the heavy fighting. Hospital doctors said that nine members of one family were killed in a single Israeli airstrike on a residential building. The information could not be ind...
