montelota:You can purchase your car, it's yours till you resell. I just bought a Toyota Camry 2005 this week Monday for same purpose,but with this new development I am yet to reach a decision but I believe they will review their fares soonest. They I'll lose investors(partners) cos the partners and the driver bear all the expenses of the vehicles, car spare parts are very costly now in the country. I am still optimistic they will review the fare. 3 Likes |

I was just thinking about this a few hours ago. The creating an app is easy, but being competitive as well as profitable is the challenge when Uber is only making money by trapping huge number of drivers in a bad business investment. Uber is big enough to lure many drivers into joining, a new Nigerian start up would need to have some big investors with deep pockets to be competitive when Uber decides to intensify its price war in the taxi industry. Uber has billions of dollars so can purposely operate on a loss for months or years in order to kill off competition and dominate the industry. A Nigerian start up would probably be better of not trying to compete on price, but build value. logica: |

Re: Uber Slashes Lagos Fares By 40% In Response To Taxify by baslone: 12:36pm On May 05, 2017 |
nairaman66: I don't know why they still use range and estimates to calculate fares for us down here, unless maybe my APP is malfunctioning. In the U.S, the app tells you the exact amount you will pay- it's left to you to accept it or not. Even if the Uber spends 4hours on a 30 minutes trip, its none of your business- your fare won't change. |

oyienootieno:There is no need to withdraw them, you can put them up on other platforms such as taxify and ogataxi and have a driver that can use all the app such that if taxify does not have a customers ogataxi may have That way you dont lose out entirely Just in case you need a driver please reach me on kettegservices@gmail.com. 07051132330 1 Like |
