In this 21st century, people are depending on luck and prayers instead of depending on the ingenuity God has given them. Is it luck or prayers that put men on the moon?

As a barca fan no doubt Ronaldo is very good
If you doubt me wait until he meet with ur team..
And he works very hard too..

But you can only compare Ronaldo with Messi
But we dey compare Messi with Maradona and Pele them..
That's how good the G.O.A.T is....

If you saw maradona and Pele play, you won't even mention Messi.

Displaying your ignorance is not wrong as long as you learn in the process, no one knows it all olodo

Ok sir

slavemerchant:
Keep quiet there, I only asked a harmless question, see as e carry the matter for head like say e dey sell gala for traffic

For you to have even asked the 'harmless' question did enough harm to your burgeoning ignorance.

rheether:
One day, we will have to talk about African parents and verbal abuse. Everyday, the clam they know it all yet their miserable generation got us into this mess that we are .

And what has our worthless generation done about it?

Ifeanyimark:
Oga taxi dey give me better money, try them out

Are you serious? Would try them out. What's their commission?

slavemerchant:
My car ac stopped working, can i use it to work tomorrow before fixing it on monday

Then better fix the AC. If na you wey enter Uber car without ac how would you feel? Are you supposed to be asking this sort of question at all? Are you running a business or doing people favour?

This is a big like abeg. Most of these places are already safe. Unless people can't differentiate between pick pocket and robbery

We don't need him in Madrid. He is not a team player and would bring bad vibes among the team

In this 21st century, should we be writing articles on the employability of graduates or writing articles in making graduates business men, innovatirs and entrepreneurs? No nation or society advances on the back of churning out people to look for paid jobs. Industrialization and innovation is the catalyst to societal progress. Let us teach our graduates and students to be street smart and open businesses not book smart and looking for none available jobs

Picked up a rider, at yaba we went to broad street, on dropping him off front of CBN a request came in, I drove straight to the pickup location and called the lady, she said she’s at the back of UBA, I proceeded to her new location, there was a traffic light and a car in front of me, I picked my phone to call her to knw how am going to identify her coz that place is always crowded, when I was dialing the guy in front of me suddenly moved, and me too followed up not knowing the traffic light has not turned green, immediately I stopped, these guys rushed me, entered my car, I done start negotiations they said if I get to there office I will pay 90k and still go for training and go for psychology test too, buh if I want them to let me go I should pay 45k and they will let me go, I knw begging won’t change anything so I told them I had 5k, the almost slap me self for mentioning 5k when there saying 45k last. So we drove to there office side I started talking to one of them, that there’s no need of we going to the office that we can sort everything here, anyway last last I paid 20k till now I ve not gotten my self.

That's streets for you. Na so Dem catch me for uyana ipaja for wrong parking. Na 15k I use bail my car

If the reverse was the case, all this misguided feminazis would be running their rotten mouths

Romeo3:

Please can I get tips on how to make this amount. I can WhatsApp u

izzou:
Y'all can be pathetic sometimes

I understand that the country is hard. But if you don't actually understand my opinion, you could actually scroll down.

It's not compulsory you quote,okay?

Good morning

My guy. Have you forgotten that Nigerians have lost their sense of humour to oerceive the sarcasm in your post. Leave them jare

Bitterleafsoup:
They created it to wipe out the undesirables, but if you happen to be an Elite puppet they can spare you and give you cure eg; Magic Ervin Johnson.

2nd point they have a cure, but treating the disease is very profitable for the pharmacies manufacturing drugs.

3rd point it is a tool for depopulation.
Thanks for asking.

4th point: the op is a fool for asking the question in the first place. Can't he as a black take up the challenge to find a cure? Must whites do everything?

highqueen:
see his beautiful wife but he keeps chasing girls upandan..some men are just stupid.

Did you read the post at all?

olaboy1:
I’m not here to argue back and forth. The continent remains poor and dark because of entitled mentality, and you need to travel out more to see how people are grinding.

Ask Uber drivers in USA how much they pay car rental companies as opposed to them buying the car outrightly.

As for the simpleton calling me a small boy, I bet I am way way older than you. Since you are such a Liberal and simpleton what would you have us say to those hard working danfo drivers earning far less than 100k monthly. I know that you want to push us all into your irrational argument that Uber job is very difficult and risky, but let's sit around the campfire and sing Kumbaya instead.

By God’s grace I have been very successful and still continue to stay in a paid employment and always show appreciation for my employers giving me the opportunity to develop in my career and my finance. I will never be so foolish to commonize the investment of my employer, and they will continue to be my “small god” as long as I work for them.

Maybe you should go and read CBN report on how much cash an average Nigerian has in his/her bank account and then just maybe you would appreciate that partner putting down millions to invest on Uber.

Oga. You are doing no one but yourself a favour. Your are in the business fir money not charity. Don't think you are helping anyone.

olaboy1:
Yes be grateful for anything you have, nobody owes you anything. I will forever be grateful to Dangote for investing over $12b in lekki free trade zone, it has nothing to do with poor mentality.

Your ministers are abroad trying to attract foreign investors, when they finally land on your soil try not to be grateful and watch them move elsewhere.

Anyone that puts food on my table is my small god...Yoruba call it orisa kekere

That's the difference. You are making gods out of what puts good on your table, other people are making gods out of their ideas.

olaboy1:
This is getting interesting. I think drivers should be grateful that someone is willing to put 2m Naira down to employ his service so he could feed his family.

You should go and see how that man made that 2m Naira before running your mouth. Stop been ungrateful in this period of recession.
I have never heard of an employee making more money than his/her employer, it doesn’t matter whether it’s e-hailing business.

The sharing formula should be 70/30 after Uber fee, fuel, data, car wash and miscellaneous.

Investor takes 70%, driver takes 30%.

Investor puts 50% aside to recoup his capital and car maintenance.
Investor takes 20% profit for his upkeep.

If investor decides to fix his money in any bank instruments, he is assured of his initial capital at the end of the year. People go into business so they can recoup their capital and even re-capitalize with a higher margin.

By the way why are partners not opting for percentage, that way everyone will share the burden of downtime, more like EARN AS YOU GO.

So we should equally be grateful to banks and private organisations. It's your type that believe that just because someone works for them, you are doing them a big favour. That's a poor mentality. Change it. Everyone needs everyone, drivers and partners inclusive

Bagehot:
LOLZ. They also stopped you guys from murdering twins, decreased infant mortality, stemmed the practice of human sacrifice, gave you education, modern medicine, and a modicum of infrastructure. As to why your country is still a shit-hole, look no further than the closest mirror.

Going by the sheer ignorance you have displayed, it's obvious you have no sense of history

This guys have observed our penchant and obsession with paper certificate and have decided to fleece us. An Msc/PhD course in US is about $12k - $18k. A one year course on graphics at NYFA is $38k. This should tell you where they place priority. Learn a skill! What baffles me is that after going to the UK, you can't even come back to start anything based on the innovations and ideas you have seen there. You are still coming back to look for a job like your counterparts here. The problem really is our mentality.

Snappyfingaz:
Gbam!!! You just nailed it. Imagine a tiny space as UK where everyone wants to populate... If the UK was your house and you got everyone in a rush trying to come in where you have less space, won't you impose strict immigration laws? The country/region is theirs, whatever they like they will do with it, whoever they want to stay behind and wishes to stay behind will stay.

Why didn't they think of their small dry land when they were plundering and colonizing people round the globe? Why didn't they just take what they need. Abeg this your argument no follow. They must pay back

Stop coming here to brag and attributing your wealth to God. Everyone knows the role obadanjo played in making you a billionaire. Don't talk as if you did something special. Na connection.

omonla10:
Firstly we start from which area u live.. My week so far and last week's income. I do only taxify and less than 6weeks experience

I stay in ogba axis. Probkem is if I use only taxify, most ikeja riders like going around (Magodo, Ojodu, Gbagada et Al). Yesterday I used Uber to set trip to island. My returns were better, but I did not hit the 10k mark. Maybe with time it would get better cos I'm a newbie in the biz.

omonla10:
I started taxify alone with my personal well used 05 Corolla sport.. Offline and online income almost 450k..thats less than 6 weeks. So it's very feasible. Let's say fueling and commission gulp 150k..thats in excess of 300k..not bad afterall. Considering I'm still a newbie

Please can you give me some tips. Been struggling to make 10k per day. I average on 7k. Cc: Gazuzz

Maxcollins042:
It's your ilk that's the problem of Nigeria and Africa as a whole.

This is the first African superhero movie directed by an African-American and instead of supporting your color, your race you are here exhibiting your nauseating pessimistic tendencies. If the film is overhyped let it be.

Oga sentiments aside, the movie just like other super hero movies is over hyped. But on a larger scale, I love the movie cos of what it does to the image of the black man. If we have more movies like this, I believe the black race would rise again. Kudos to them

biacan:
Studies has shown that men can't do without masturbation most men masturbate 3-4 times daily....some masturbate to the point where the semen is no longer coming out and they see no wrongs in it....70% of broken marriages are been caused by masturbation making men impotent.....funny thing they'll still blame their wives for not been able to get pregnant when they are the cause of their problems.......masturbators are mostly depressed,jobless and always lustful





Please today is Valentine and the only way I can profess my love to you guys is by the above...... hope it helps do have a wonderful celebration

Happy Valentine

So after posting this, you think you have made an intellectual point. If you believe everything you read, you are in trouble

Emmytes:
There's no sense in creating something and giving it free will but still expect it to follow commands. Why not save yourself the trouble and make them obedient to you by default.

This defies all logical reasoning. Religion makes no sense.

Yes RELIGION makes no sense, but spirituality does. If you read other books on religion apart from the Bible, then you would understand that there is unity in opposite. What do I mean?Look at nature. Sun and moon, day and night, man and woman, good and bad. All these emanate from the same source but balance the course of life.

Christianity on its part advocates for division and seperation. That's why Christians are afraid to die. Thats why when xtuans encounter problems they believe that it is the work of the 'devil' forgetting that even the Bible tells them that there is a season for everything.

Lest I digress, God gave man the urges but also gave him the free will to control them. Why, because man has to discover himslef and God by he himself alone. It is a journey that man takes to discover his divine nature. God can't force it on you. It is something you have to realize by yourself.

So in the case if sex/sex dolls, he expects man to discover the power and esoteric meaning of sex and know how to channel it appropriate it. Kama sutra, sexual transmutation are some of the way this energy can be channelled to creative and constructive purposes.

On the contrary, lust, bestaiality and homosexuality are ways of channeling sexual energy in a destructive way. Sex is raw energy. If you store it up too much, it destroys you because every energy needs an outlet for expression. If you dissipate carelessly, you weekend your momentum.

Like I said, read other religious books, then you would have a better understanding of the Bible. When the student is ready, the teacher would appear.

Emmytes:
Wake up

Your maker doesn't care. If he did, he wouldn't put those urges in your body in the first place.

He put urgea to be controlled by you, not the other way round. Go and read about sexual transmutation. Sleeping with a sex doll is a mental sickness. I don't even want to go deep into the esoteric, occultic or spiritual implications of sex, no to talk of doing it with a lifeless object

If it was a church your item got stolen would you come online to rant? It baffles me how people blame others for their own irresponsibility. 'I left my bag', 'I left my phone'. Who does that? I'm not absolving coldstone of their poor manner of handling the case, but please next time be responsible.byou can't leave your personal items without someone looking after it. Even in church!!!
