seunoni34: For every woman who has run a tech company into the ground, you can find 10 men who have. This invalidates your point. It is just easier to point fingers at women who fail in predominantly male positions. 6 Likes |

Well... One side of the story. This is an attacking write-up too. Biased and sentimental. Tech companies spend a lot of cash and if the revenue does not cemmensurate, it may affect over-head which includes staff, closing down inefficient branches amongst others. They probably made some mistakes in the past and it will take a lot of effort to build. Cutting down cost, restrategizing, re-orientation and some massive visual marketing campaign. Making it will require someone who is good, visionary, passionate, hardworking and a leader. All the best. To the person who called their MD lesbian, are you perfect? Do not sound sanctimoniuos please. 3 Likes |

just to join words here for the purpose of enlightenment, I work with the jovago arm of the same company... the probem is not perculier to easy taxi alone ever since buhari assumed office, they have struggled to pay salary,funds could not be transferd, all thank to cbn's forex policies. The same challenge that easy taxi, jovago faces is experienced by most foreign companies in Nigeria...gradually, but surely,the government is bent on strangling these thriving an exciting tech startups. These businesses have tried to survive even with the hostile business environment in the country...but the economic and monetry polices of buhari look like its going to be last straw that breaks these giants of companies that gives hope n empowerment to ordinary nigerians. 1 Like |

Was proper feasibility study done before commencement?....or was there money to be thrown around. The Nigerian environment is different.....Uber might try....but Nigeria isn't America, Europe or India.

I met Adaora recently at an event in Abuja and she strikes me as a serious business person that knows her industry. She had done a couple of start ups at MIT where she grad from and even here. As at November 27 when I met her, Easy Taxi was still doing very well and from my observations they weren't showing any sign of distress. Every business has its down time but am sure Easy Taxi is not going down yet 1 Like |

I saw an advert for customer care on nairaland with this same company. The second round stage was just cumbersome. We were told to download easy taxi app and then book for a taxi using their app. Take a ride wiv a free 1000 naira voucher. Come back home and write a report on your experience. My phone does not even support the app. They don't pay up to 100k and after doing this what is the guarantee of being picked. I checked their fb page, noticed they didn't even have upto 1k followers and I asked questions from few friends . I didn't get good replies at all. The few people I would say unfortunate people who used their taxi said they are ridiculously expensive. I thought perhaps its because the taxis have a.c and they are new. But I was told that they don't pay the drivers. The drivers take half and remit the remaining to the company or something like that. So they can never go below 5k. A friend took their cab from Ikeja to yaba for 5k. Anyway I declined their second stage assessment by sending a mail and gave reasons and even told them how they should improve but whoever is their media pr or whatever replied in a harsh manner. I am just laughing after reading this. The story is bias but there is an element of truth. Seeing this justifies my earlier refusal to commit and also explains a lot why cardoso left the company. This is not to run the company down before someone accuses me wrongly 1 Like |
