Did you know the US are selling cut-price fuel to Nigeria?

I read this on Yahoo today (from Sky): "In one week, the UK price of petrol has shot up a penny and diesel even more. At the same time, market commentators have reported a gasoline glut in the US, enabling them to sell cut-price fuel to Nigeria. "Drivers in the UK are asking why their car fuel prices are soaring while petrol is being offered at a discount elsewhere." I think that drivers in the US should be asking questions, too!

That's really odd. Here, petrol has dropped by a penny. I am now paying 101.9. But yes, isn't it odd that countries can never do things for their own people, but can manage it for others.

Perhaps not my most impressive post. But thank you my friend for the BR.

That does not surprise me but I had not heard it yet. Our government is messed up. I cannot figure them out at all.
