Man uses cooking gas to run fuel generator

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian man had used cooking gas to power a fuel generator.

At the moment, PMS is sold between N617 and over N650 per litre in many Nigerian cities after the federal government removed the subsidy on petrol.

Due to the high fuel cost, some technicians started posting videos, showing people generators that they converted to run-on cooking gas.

In one such TikTok video, Orilomo showed one of the generators which had already been converted. A gas cylinder was placed on the generator.
