Since I started doing night runs (na UBER/BOLT Ooo..) before some people will go and search me for codedruns.
I have noticed that 95% of riders with very very low ratings are always nice to me. Most of them will be the one to call first and will be like... "Please are you coming ?", "Please I'm waiting".
Me will be like... don't worry I will be there soon. And what I will get in return will be, "Ok thank you".

My fellow night Owls, if you were to get a request from this dude in the middle of the night, what would be your reaction ?
If I get this kind request for midnight, I swear I go off my phone, straight to house. grin grin

good for you, all his staffs are on nairaland, one came before you and wrote, he is the logistic officer that they are sending to ph, now you are the other one also claiming ph, who will be the third person?? make una continue with una lies, i have my proof, dont think any threat or abuse i read here, i take it seriously.

now, do not make yourself important, the cause of the argument isnt because of you, so move on to PH instead of wasting your time replying me

there is this problem in Nigeria, it is the problem of writing long stories and epistles to show do-you-know-who-I-am but all na audio according to psychologist they say it is a personality disorder(NPD) precisely, the feeling of self importance, very common among nigerians

anyway, i didnt come here to argue, me, i have done my own research but its shows otherwise,

the only reason i love to do check on people is because Nigerians are liars, i have meet many and not one truth came out of their mouth, it is only bragging and bragging, time for action na audio, no show.

so i have decided that before i can believe or do anything with anybody, a background check must be done and thank god for that simple implementation, fraudsters and scammers now run away when i smell their scam, now i know truth from lies.

if you like you can continue to believe any story here, until you meet someone who says he owns a space station and he believe he can make you an astronaut in 3 months and it will make your family and village be proud of you, then you shall take seriously, what i have been trying to say and know that anybody who talks big without proof or evidences na scam he dey try do.

Btw, your boss you have been defending,, i know his second moniker on nairaland, where he gives advises does his real life side hustle without bragging.

lets leave it there before you bring peacock beach estate, where a house for sale can be within the range of ₦320,000,000. but then again, he says he does uber for fun, make i no just laugh.
Na this kind thing dey make me vex. Madam please specify which action you are talking about... Is it in za oza room ?

Una do start again abi ? Una dey make roughly 35k on daily and you still dey complain.

Felicity0001:
Talking about health.

Guys lets always take out time to have a day or some days off after doing some days drive. Driving can be Very stranous couple with the bad energy one encounters on the daily especially from taxify riders.

Lately, I've notice some nasty and crazy attitude also from uber riders as well. All of these put together couple with the sleepless night during the week ends one can easily fall I'll if care ials not taken.

Last Saturday, I was dosing while driving on the lekki epe exp way and my rider was seating comfortably atbthe back seat thinking everything was ok, the request won't stop coming but immediately I ended the trip I just went offline, parked somewhere safe and slept off.

The headache is anothing one can't finish talking about.

Yesterday on my way to Benin seating in the front seat, I said let me take a nap the driver just said bros no ooh na me and you dey drive this motor ooo if you sleep me self fit fall asleep ooh. I was like i understand. That was how we started gisting and he exposed to me how dosing on steering has killed a lot of his collegues while some are seriously ill due to stress and inadequate rest after a long drive.

So Guys, this is not an issue one has to over emphasise. Tell your car partner you need some day off, its for the safety of you, your health, your rider, the other person driving in the road and even the pedestrians, the car and property.

Take out That time to rest today and save yourself the sorry case that may arise tomorrow

May God bless our hustle.

I lost my car key outside (around) where I live but I still have the spare key. I'm thinking of getting a Steering wheel lock as it is cheaper than doing another key.

I still don't get the double standard that sexylassie is talking about here. Or was there at any point in time that a guy refused to pay and we all were like... Hey guys, he's a guy, lets not call him out ?

In as much as I don't like the way AngryIgboMan lays his cards on the table, I can swear with my left ball that if he was the one that reported that scammer to her parent, he will own it up.

I still can't understand why most insults you get on this UBER/BOLT work are from people who are not into legit. Like Yahoo boys and Oloshos. My my my... those set of people can frustrate you in the line of duty.

Some riders are desperately wicked and selfish.
So this rider without my knowledge hid WEED inside my car because he knew that we were going to pass through police check point.

After like 20 minutes wey I don drop him and his girlfriend, na so the guy call me say him forget weed wey him hide inside my car say make I come back say him go pay me. I abuse am wella before I cut the call.

I couldn't even find anything after I pulled over and did a quick search because it was about some minutes past 12 am.

So if to say yawa gas now, na for my head the thing go land due to say na inside my car dem see the weed abi ?

Another thing now be say I don search everywhere inside my car... still cant find the shit.
Is it that the weed is not in my car or it was well hidden that only him can locate where he hid it ?

One more thing guys... we've been invaded in this thread. so many spies dey here now.

I don't understand this man again o. Okay I picked him around 8pm and I allowed him to owe me because he told me right before I started the trip that he would have to transfer to me later in the night. Since I've closed for the day and was driving home empty I just did it anyway. Trip ended 1200, he said I should pls send my account details. Since then it's from one annoying like I'm eating now to another like I'm in traffic now (he is not the one driving o). Most times he won't pick my call, he will respond with text message. Please panel of judges, does he deserve the avengers wrath?

What's all this fuss self about Uber/Bolt drivers cashing out as a result of the ban on keke and okada ?

Sweetheart, I'm still grossing just about the same range of between 8k to 11k in a day, that's about the same range I used to make before the ban. I work from 2pm to 12 am apart from weekends. Most times self I don't even get request until between 4pm and 5pm before the biz go set.
Well, maybe na people wey dey work full day dey cash out. The traffic self this days na die.
Even police men for check points at night now dey tell me say... Guy settle us, after all government don ban keke and okada, na una uber drivers dey make all the money now.
Talking about Police men... had one funny experience with one yesternite along that domino's pizza, Adekunle axis.

So I was on a trip to lekki, lost in my thought.
The next thing I don beat traffic light, next thing, two police on bike for my front dey flag me down to pack.
I pulled over, one of them enter my car we begin the normal negotiation. After going back and forth, oga police agreed to take 1k. the police man inside my car wants to play a fast one on the other one on bike, oga police say okay make I sharperly use my hand put the 1k inside his pocket so that the one on bike no go see say I give am money.
At that time na only 1k 200 naira dey with me, me wey know how I dey take arrange my money, I quickly put hand for where the 200 naira dey and quickly slide the 200 naira into the police man pocket.
Immediately oga police commot for my car, na so I fire my car face thirdmainlandbrigde. I sure say e go take am sometime before he go realize wetin happen. THEIR FADA!

I wonder who dey see things pass between Musa for gate and Uber/bolt driver.

Picked up this rider from havana hotel this morning. Immediately rider entered my car, the smell of alcohol and weed just make rubish of my air freshner.
Me just tell the rider say "sorry I have to turn off the a/c and wind down" . After I don wind down, the rider no talk anything.
after driving for about 30 seconds, the next thing I heard was : Oga softly dey shake my breast.
ME : E just be like say dem put electric shock for my body. My eyes go straight to her breast, no ask me wetin carry my eyes go there, no be my fault na reflex action make me look that side.
The rider carry for front sha! Abeg pope, sprinkle me that Holy water, my eyes don commit this morning.

After like a minute now, the rider come talk again say... Oga you no hear wetin I talk say make you take am easy dey shake my breast ?
Me : Sorry it's due to the bad road. But inside my mind I come talk say ... the bad road and you wey no wear bra follow cause the shaky shaky.

Got to destination, rider pay I fine my way.

Shey na huber driver wey never chop belle full (I don't mean JUNK FOOD) go buy land ? Abegiii....

Truth is ; Huber job is not even to keep body and soul together but to keep body and soul apart hahahahahahahaha

I have always said that Uber should go back to the way it all started or reduce the fare a little. So that even if na just two or three trips local man complete in a day, he go still go home with better esusu, body and soul go dey together.

PASTOR MY ROYAL BEHIND!
I'm not holding brief for the driver, but Who know how him take talk to the driver before the driver fire back. We no dey there to know weda he politely talk to driver as him claim.

Any small thing dem go say... "If you are not fine with Uber/Bolt fare- Quit." Meanwhile so many things no dey work for this country and you still dey naija dey say... "we die here". Why u never quit the country ? But you want Uber/Bolt drivers to quit. HYPOCRITES!

Despite the surge during christmas, riders still leave yellow cabs and other cabs dey request Uber/Bolt up and dan, that na to tell you say even the surge still favor riders.

Riders and car owners go dey think say dem dey do drivers favor by riding with Uber/Bolt or because you give driver car. See ehn... this game na wazo wazo(50 50), all man are in it for gain.
Some go say if Uber/Bolt leave naija say so many drivers go dey jobless. B4 pizza come naija, we dey chop something.
One woman with original American accent - no be the ones wey dey form-o. Requsted for a ride, got to pick up. Rider came out and said... I'm not going again and handed me 1000 naira mint, that type of mint wey dey cent like say dem just print am now now. Na that kind one I go say did me a favor.
You go carry me enter jaga jaga road, pay the displayed fare, collect your change to the last kobo. Yet you go dey think say you dey do me favor.

Babadee1900:
Google map that will take you to the closest street to your destination and tell you, you have arrived. cheesy.. That thing can be annoying.

I have several experiences with this.

Few nights ago, around 3am, picked a lady from Parktonian hotel around Ikate, she had MidnightLife or so in her destination, it was supposed to be somewhere inside lekki, she doesn't know the place neither do I. We followed the map, then we arrived at one beautiful house inside Lekki Phase 1 and the Google Voice said ' You've Arrived '...Arrived where? Does this house look like an eatery to you grin.

The girl was frustrated and very hungry, had to take her to The Place on Admiralty, she was lucky to get food.

Another Experience: Yesterday evening I did an offline trip from Sangotedo to Cyrstal Court, Lekki. When I got to where the map says you have arrived, it doesn't look anything like a hotel, at first I thought it was the usual thing with Hotels in lekki where they don't use signboard, someone will just buy a house and convert it into a hotel. It wasn't the case as I checked Hotels.ng for likely pictures of the hotel, what I saw was completely different from where the map took me to.

I had to ask someone around who directed me, it was the next street.

There's more....
See ehn... Sometimes, riders will input the wrong address or incomplete address and expect gmap to do the magic.
BusinessRe: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by confusedworld17: 8:24pm On Jan 07, 2020
Gmap to me is 95 if not 100% accurate. Most guys make mistake and put the blame on Gmap.

I remember my second day on uber...
So this lady was going to agege from VI. Immediately she got into the car, she said to me that she's not feeling fine that hope I don't mind, that she's going to lie down at the back. I said no problem.

I sha found my way out of VI and then TMB. I was enjoying my Gmap with no one directing me. Not untill I got to maryland and there was serious traffic on BankAnthony that very day.

Map begin direct me to continue on ikorodu rd... Na so I put head, after some minutes, map begin dey direct me say... Towards Ibadan. I fear small, IBADAN! abi na me no see well, I sha continue dey drive. The next thing again wey I see na, Continue towards Ibadan.

Nah so I begin sweat inside AC. I come dey fear say, true true this map fit direct person go another state. In fact this map na rubbish.

I come dey think within me say, Shey make I find space pack and wake this woman up and explain to her say I be newbie say map don dey lead us enter ibadan ?

I summon small courage say make I still drive for some minutes first before I go wake this woman up, wether I go see places wey I sabi. Lo and behold, I started seeing places wey I know, I come breath a sigh of relief. Wuuuuu....

Baba, as I drop this woman, I look for one bar go take one green bottle first to cool my temprature.

When you take care of the little things, the bigger ones will take care of themselves or it might not even escalate to the bigger ones.

Uber/Bolt suppose to dey pay for the fare to return rider's items or make them share the fare with the rider, or make the rider pay the fare. To say make Driver carry the cross is a NO NO for me.
