“Every month, we have four vehicles all together that we are giving out. We have four vehicles, 12 motorcycles and four tricycles with some other goods.

Speaking on why they are selling their fuel at 146, Akinduro said “The industry has been deregulated already and we want to compensate our customers and we don’t want to give high prices because of the economic situation of the country.”

Also, Oyo State Commissioner for Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Barrister Abiodun Abdulraheem lauded the gesture of the firm saying the state government is ready to partner with whoever is bringing value to the state.

“In Oyo State, we want discipline, accountability, we want people that are ready to bring value to Oyo State, we don’t mind wherever you are coming from provided you bring value to us in Oyo State which will be a good report for the citizens and people of Oyo State.
