Let me put it into perspective for you if you don't understand.

Let's presume as a bolt/uber driver you make 15k. Inside that money bolt take 3k as commission, while the remaining 12k you minus 3k for fuel and maintenance gulp 5k, leaving you with 4k as take home, now petrol has almost been tripled, consequently biting into your take home and leaving you struggling to be in businesses. Now, what the e-hailing companies increased is about 80% of the around 340% pms was increased, while maintaining the same commission rate.

What the protesters are simply saying is either the company adjust the tfare to commensurate with deficit they're suffering or the companies reduce their commission to help shoulder the deficit they're suffering.

I'm 100% certain that you here yapping can never be in a business where you wake up everyday to go to work and at the end of the month you make no profit, instead you're borrowing to sustain the business. That's what is happening and why they're protesting.
As for your question; I believe the drivers were not shipped from Congo nor their passengers, so, it's an inconsequential question.

You are wasting your time on a nincompoop.

That boy is obviously still being fed by his mum and living under his guardians... that's why his talking from his anus!

Also, you can see poverty written all over his comments. Obviously he has never enjoyed a Bolt/Uber service before!

Is there no public transport where you reside?? Must you enter Uber or bolt. If you have the money, sure you are free

victorazy:


This comment and mentality is why Nigeria and Africa is not progressing, lack of love and empathy. Selfishness and wickedness. So you don't feel their pain at all?

Why should I Pity them...........even public transport wey supposed strike no strike, who con be Uber or bolt

In all this your narration, nothing concern federal government, the hailing companies should do the Needful. Simple

Acidosis:


It affects their employers: Uber Technologies and Bolt Inc. The strike does not (directly) affects about you or the Nigerian government.

Then the Employers should do the Needful and reduce their Commission.

You and you kind will be the one to suffer more, the effect of subsidy remover haven't started yet, when it starts you will see that the country will be unbearable for people like you, just sit tight and watch what will happen in the next few months to come. It is only a senseless government that will take such action without putting things in place. If you guys are wise, you should have demanded that the government should put the refineries in order, all you do is to attack anybody against Tinubu action just because he is from your side.

Prophet of Doom, Which country will be Unbearable?? Be there deceiving yourself.

Beverlyjean:



How would you know...no be okada and danfo u
de fly

Yes, that's why it can't affect us. Na who get Money dey call Uber or Bolt. Are you now Satisfied??

I don't need to be a prophet to to you what will soon happen. Am 100% certain that you and your fellow will bear the hate of the subsidy more, mark my word

Then use a general term instead of brt.

Acekidc4:


Why should I Pity them...........even public transport wey supposed strike no strike, who con be Uber or bolt

Bros plz dey reason naw!

Public transporters are independent body BUT Uber & Bolt are under an umbrella, independent trans can change fare at will but them cannot.

Acekidc4:


Those ones are paying daily taxes na!! Is Uber or private drivers paying tax to government?? I have never seen where Uber drivers pay money to Agberos the tax collectors!!

What you don't know, don't say. Uber drivers and bolt drivers pay taxes on every trip they pick online. Go check and confirm. No spit brat here abeg

omoadeleye:



But, that doesn't concern the government,

In fact more revenue for the government because of their strike , people won't have any choice to enter normal commercial bus.

The strike is not against the government, it's against the e-hailing companies.

Acekidc4:


What is the essence of their strike when it can never affect Nigerians?? Tell me pls

Good Lord, you really are dense. The strike is supposed to force Bolt and Über to give in to their demands and reduce the commission rate or increase the fares. This has nothing to do with the government ffs.

That is the renewed hope you voted for

On a norm, are agberos supposed to be "the tax collectors"? I'm sure you have realized how stupid you sound

Acekidc4:

I wish you more wisdom and understanding.

Who send their Papa??Who know Them?? If Dem like make Dem Strike, na Hunger go kill all of them.

comments like this shows how shallow ur brain is, if u are not one of them doesn't mean u spite them.

Acekidc4:


How does Uber and Bolt Drivers Strike affect Nigerians??

Wow what a question

LoL I feel sorry for them, you want to hike price beyond the price the app gives, don't they know the trip is calculated by a fair algorithm that considers the time spent on road and cost of gas in the country plus considers other areas where the driver takes a route to increase fair price , they get penalized.

They also forget, it's not easy to find alternatives , they think say na govt work then dey do, the strike will not hold because, many will go out to make trips, irrespective cos anyone verified can do trips be it part time or full time. The more they strike the more profit for those who remain

We have a meeting tomorrow... Kindly share with others...
This is for Abuja drivers
