Omoapena:I just called the mechanic and he said the ring alone is 40k(Briscoe) and he will charge 200k to fix the corolla because he will also fix the block(I don't know what that means) |
Omoapena:The last time I ringed my engine when it was shorting oil. I spent about 250k or so.....and it has not short oil since then. It was last year b4 the election |
Omoapena:Dangerous move bro! 1 min of taking your eyes off the road and putting on your phone can cause something! God forbid! |
Omoapena:Are you driving on the high way and typing on your phone? |
dapotemi:Pearl doesn't tow this your line of thought! You say it is to pay bills, not to get rich.....but he says people get rich with it. They become landlords and all.... |
pope191:Only you know why you took the decision but IMO I'd suggest you shouldn't have stopped when there's nothing to fall back on or biz to continue with. You cannot be sitting idle at home. It's not good for a man. I know you've made good money on e-hailing but if it's not quickly put into another biz or investment, you will continue to spend it and the thing go dey go down small small. I wish you well my brother |
pope191:Wow! Great. God bless the new hustle/biz you're venturing into. I want to be like you pretty soon 😊 |
sunnymighty:Go to Daleko at mushin. Call this guy: KC by name; 0803 759 1926 |
pope191:Closed for today or stopped the hustle? @omoapena, there should be a spare parts market in Edo where U can get the nuzzle. Just ask around. I worked in Edo for some years....wayback, at a construction/building firm and I know the plant section buys some parts from there! |
Welz:This hustle isn't something to take pride in. Driving strangers upandan isn't the best kind of job to be proud about. As they say; na condition make crayfish bend! I don't use indrive again. They are the cheapest and the useless of all e-hailing apps. Nobody is dragging indrive with you! You can continue to use it or continue your fastest finger. It is not a competition! Some of us are trying so hard to leave the hustle |
Nelochukwu:Then boycott the app and use bolt or uber......simple! I wish all drivers can leave that app......walai, their brain go reset. Got a trip from that yaba train station yesterday morning to lekki phase 1. Bolt showed 11k. They gave rider bonus of 1600. I checked on indrive and saw 6600.....which will still be reduced! Nonsense app! They already told you guys they are fighting "injustice" My last trip on bolt yesterday, 20 mins from Anthony village to kilo 7800, 800 bonus. The guy sef shock. It was 3200 on indrive |
2RightHands1Coc:Na true him tell you bro. The hustle no too make sense again. If you still insist, you can try....but try with bolt/uber and not indrive |
Omoapena:Na wa o! Thanks anyways |
Omoapena:Thanks for sharing. Omo your fuel still plenty and you've already made 60k and I'm sure you did all offline. With that remaining fuel, you can make it to about 85k. Your net go dey enter like 60k 😊 |
Omoapena:Old price na 20k half tank, so how much net a day? New price should be 23k half tank. If you have tried with the new price, how much net a day? |
Omoapena:Ok, so how much net will 20k fuel get you a day? |
What's happening? People quoting me but admin dey delete am. I just saw 2 quotes, I opened and it's been deleted |
Glithronix:I live in a gated area with security, around Sabo. My friend's(family man) house was robbed this early morning. They took his phone, his monies and some belongings. Wife n children not around. He just jamed the door to buy toothpaste across and he came back to see magic. Something that has never happened before in the area. Investigations are on though! Abokis arrested, but I still don't believe they are the culprits! They've been there for years! Boiz dey hungry now! Pressure don dey! People should really be careful now and be security cautious. |
dapotemi:Go there tomorrow and see if the price will be the same |
pheelhip:Just dey target long trip rides for bolt. Sabo to Lennox admiralty 11100, bonus 1100. I collect 10k. Indrive no fit give U 6k |
Halahhalah:I guess so too! |
pheelhip:It is bro. I just got my first trip on bolt at 11k to lekki phase 1. Kpatakpata dem give bonus 2k, I collect 9k. It's far better than the 5k to lekki I'm seeing on indrive |
Omoapena:Yes. I made a call to confirm. Bolt has adjusted, but indrive is still low. I tried to order on bolt to furo ezimora and I saw 9400 and it's because they gave me 20% discount. Indrive to same place is showing 5k plus. I just wish drivers can boycott indrive |
Snrman1:The owners of that app just wants to frustrate drivers. They actually know what's on ground in Nigeria. They know everything happening concerning fuel price and the high cost of car parts/engine oil. They don't care.....their motto is: To curb injustice in transportation. Which means to reduce price drastically to barest minimum! As I saw 998/ltr this morning, I decided to check indrive and I was still seeing 4700/5k to lekki and drivers still doing fastest fingers. I changed to passenger phase and tried to order to lekki(5300), then I dropped a note; stating that drivers should be aware that fuel is now 998/ltr.......Omo indrive blocked me immediately! That means they are aware! "Nobody should say pim. Just manage it like that. If you can't, then go.....we want to gain all the customers"..... This is their mindset!

pheelhip:Which NNPC? |
BAZ001:But na person pikin U sef dey call "olosho" 😊 |
I didn't bother to read so many messages. The attacks too much. It's not necessary though. Una just dey showcase una flamboyant sitting rooms. We wey dey live face me, I slap U, don even dey discouraged to dey talk here. It is well sha, even in the well! Pls brothers, enough is enough! We are one here. One love keep us together. |
davit:Shey dem dey obey court order for this country? |
@omoapena, there was no need for all that! That you had an argument with pearl doesn't mean you should rub it on an innocent soul. I remembered I said it wasn't possible for me. Everyone tells his own story, whether the person is telling lies or not, it shouldn't stop you from being frank(from your own experience) to someone who said he left the hustle a year ago. Pearl is a good guy and he never stops putting me through when I call him, but I still told him I don't make such amount with 20k fuel. If he says he makes such, so be it! Advice people based on your own experience. For the guy asking, 50k delivery per week is high! Insist on 35k. I bought 20k at NNPC and I made 44k+, though I still had fuel to make it 50k. Like I said, insist on 35k.......30k would be best for you! The prices are ridiculous, even bolt self no dey try again. Got a trip from lekki phase 1 to opebi at 8300.....42 mins. Checked bolt and I saw 9400. I did the maths.....after commission, indrive came to about 7400 and bolt about 7050. Ire o |
Sunnybay7:Maybe the person isn't on this platform....you can call him on phone. If you cannot find his number, then Chat with the CS of the app used and let them know what happened, they will give you his number |
Pearl1910:Before the fixed price 😊 |
Glithronix:👍 |
