- A Nigerian man has converted his car to use liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) instead of premium motor spirit (PMS)

- The cylinder was installed in the car's boot, and the man said LPG could be cheaper in the long run
Reactions have trailed the video of a Nigerian man who converted his car from petrol to autogas.

In the video which was posted by Auto Cars, the man was heard saying the fuel he was buying was gas and not petrol.
The video was captioned:
"Changing your car from fuel to LPG gas can actually lead to cost-savings in the long run."
At the moment, petrol is being sold between N900 and N1250. The prices differ in parts of the country.
In Port Harcourt, PMS is currently selling for N1250 per litre at some filling stations.
However, the man did not mention how much he spent on the LPG.
It's cheaper, says user
In a separate chat with Legit.ng, the man, Jibril Jibril Abdullahi ATK said he bought the autogas at the AA Rano filling station.
"I have been using it for a while. But I was not the one who converted the car. I purchased it like that."
He said using LPG is cheaper but noted that he has never filled the cylinder to the brim.
He told Legit.ng:
"Sure, it’s cheaper and more economical than fuel. I have never filled the cylinder. I think the highest amount I refilled is N22k."

Man fills his car with CNG
In a related story, a driver who drives a CNG-powered bus was seen at a filling station buying gas for the vehicle.
The man, seen at a NIPCO filling station, opted for CNG instead of the regular premium motor spirit.
Using CNG fuel could be cheaper, as a man also posted another video showing he filled a car cylinder for only N1900.
