Commercial Okada is more lucrative than Phone Repairs.

People move everyday, but not everyone spends money on phone repairs everyday.

Okada has more safety risk though.

You should consider other physical and environmental factors before making a choice though.....

Then there's the learning curve.. Or are you already good with phone repairs? I mean hardware and software issues

Phone engineer. Know how to repair phones. 100m phones in southern Nigeria at least. Imagine the statistics of spoilt phone daily. Your Okada competition are illiterates from Niger republic. Anybody can ride a bike. Not everyone can repair an iPhone 11 Pro. Soon you can start selling phones too then laptops and have a big gadget stores. Many people ride okada for years with nothing to show. Think about the stress. 400 kilometers for 100 naira. You’ll do it 100 times before you make 10k. And you’ll buy fuel. You can make 10k on just one repair. Wise up.

grin you seemed not to understand phone repair business. Maybe you just want to learn how to change mouthpiece, speaker and some screens. If you truly want to go into phone repair business you won't be comparing it with Okada. Some phone engineer make over 50k daily and some make up to 100k sef. Although there are some that don't make up to 1k daily o. But it depends on how well you want to know the job. To be very good at phone you'll spend well over 1m on learning and buying tools.

I kid you not

Phone Engineering. They have bastardised that okada work. You will seen as a mediocre, a criminal and a potential murderer.

Add some other IT skills to phone engineering and you should be good to go.

While you are at it, please join the OSINBAJO VOLUNTEER VANGUARD.

Okada riding might be more lucrative at the beginning, but on a long run, phone repairs has more security.
And one advantage of handwork over business is that your skill lives with you forever. Your workshop can be destroyed, but your expertise remains with you. That cannot be said for Okada where I'd you have an accident and your bike damages, you might not be able to replace it.
Okada business is also more stressful with running around busy roads at all times. It also exposes you to some health hazards like pneumonia and don't take away the probability of road accidents.
So I would say, go for the phone repairs. Gradually, you can save enough to add phone accessories and over time, you may even start selling phones.

And yes, dem dey ban bikes too.

Wrong way to evaluate a business.

Okada: Start making money on Day 1 but has vagaries. Occupational hazards, touts and immense competition but you are always flexible with working times and locations. Good if you're a field person.

Phone repair: Takes time to develop and business revenue is not a daily constant except you're located at a phone sales and repair hub. Less risk and opportunities for expansion through vertical and horizontal integration.

Drawbacks include less flexible locations, competition depending on location and really leans on your technical skills.

Pick your poison.
