Where is Idahosa’s church today? What of TB Joshua’s synagogue church? Do you know of any hereditary church business that flourished after the death of the founder and continuity of the family member as leader huh
You're right....I am only saying this thing is now a BUSINESS and nothing more!

Do you know how many seniors Jimmy would jump to get to that position? It's like making a captain a chief of Army staff!
Lol, Christendom don wise now, nobody will allow the Redeemed scenerio to play out again, NEVER AGAIN!
When baba Akindayomi decides to pass on the baton to baba Adeboye, where is the Akindayomi family again, do you still hear their name again, they have all been erased..No founder/owner will make that error again .All of una will be here when Adeboye will pass it on to his Son...Make you continue to dey pay tithe, you hear?

So please, which type of car will you recommend for one to break even in no distant time?
Honestly, I have not used any other car except the Corolla/Matrix..What am saying is don't spend TOO MUCH purchasing a car you intend to use solely for ehailing... Unfortunately, cars are very expensive now due to FX, but in comparison, some people here have sworn that the 03/04 civic can do the job...I don't think it makes any sense for anyone to get a car of 4 million to do Uber, if you have that cash you should not even be thinking of ehailing.My thought!

I greeet you bosses. Please is Matrix 2010 good to use for this hustle. As per maintenance and ruggedidity Asking for a friend. Tanx alot
Matrix 2010 is an overboard unless perhaps, you have it already.
Get something cheaper, the idea is to NOT incur too much capital when starting the Hussle, to be able to atleast break even on time ...Though, the matrix is suited for the job in terms of fuel consumption, am not sure about the ruggedity tho...it's not a bad machine and I love it's feminine outlook.

Lol... Truth is a bitter pile to swallow

Arrogance will never allow a child to listen to the words of his father.

So a child will say to his father, dad, you're not making sense.

You and your likes, Kontinue!
If those word you uttered is what a 'father' should be saying according to you then you're useless father....you call people poor, miserable without any provocation..I think you're just describing exactly who you are. Snap out of it little man!

Thanks bruh, I really appreciate u with this comment. We’re starting soon will definitely be updating everybody how it goes.
Alright that's great...Follow the dashboard you see here and pls don't let anyone show you dashboard and still be saying something else...Here, they feel driver should take 95% of revenue..Owner should take 5% because the driver is helping the owner to drive his car...

Lol if I was would I come here and put up this post askin for advice, cmon be smart at least. I don’t wanna be unrealistic reason I came here also I’ve seen post of Uber drivers making 45k per day minus fuel and Uber commission so let’s calculate. If he works for 6 days times 45 that’s how 270k. But I was thinking can this be real? If not everybody for don join Uber since ma why I came here to have insight from people who are in the business full time especially now fuel don go up. My target is at least 250k a month!! Anything less I just sell my car.
Bros, it is feasible..My driver dey remit 75k now per week and there is no problem as everything is going on right....Don't allow anyone to drag you back sir. They will tell you it's not possible, your car will suffer, they will even insult you but all na lie, na old format to protect the crazy money they make daily in this Hussle...80k is fine, just make sure you have a sound car ...Just read like 20 page backward, see the dashboard and make your decisions..Make ur decision based on "dashboard evidence" wey you see and not the nonsense they write here...I never even add OFFLINE o....that one na the "gas" wey dey oil & gas...No forget say na you sweat buy the car ..ehailing is the new oil..Cheers

Have you tried checking Jiji. Have been seeing clean cars there at reasonable prices. Though you still need to check with your mechanic.

Also, why not try other brands aside Corolla.
Corolla is what is needed....and I think the price increase affect everything, even bicycle..

"outside" is not smiling at all...I felt so unhappy today, got me brooding for a while....A week ago I put up a request here that I need a Corolla, 2003-2006....Our budget was actually between 3.7-3.8...
Today, I decided to enter market, thinking that the guys have been using are not effective enough..I Waka round Lagos, almost finish 10k fuel ....Brethren, the cheapest Corolla I got was 4.6 million....Fear catch me, I don't know things has really gotten that bad....For a 19 year old vehicle....A dealer presented a 2006 for 5.5 million, very clean, after so much bargaining he said he will take 5.1.
I was just angry with myself, with the country, with everything...Person con be like failure again...This country don finish o walai...
On a second thought, all this 1k trip no suppose dey again, even if na 2 second trip.....Maintain your car, you may never be able to afford another one, with this Hussle abi na where Uber man was see 5 million.....HP on a toks now go be like how much again ...I just weak honestly..

So I carried this girl from Iponri to Rita Lori hotel, Iganmu.

When we got there, the girl said she can't make transfer and doesn't have cash either, that we should withdraw at POS.

When we got to POS, she said that she forgot her ATM card in her hotel room. That I should allow her go upstairs to get it.

I told her that she has to drop her bag in the car before leaving. After much argument, she dropped the bag and went inside to get the card.

I just looked into the bag and saw something pinky staring at me. Being a bad guy and the place I was, I decided to take a second look and lo and behold, there before me is an artificial DICk grin
I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to do.... Nevertheless, what You've done is not good enough, you don't search a lady's bag, there was no reason to do that..Touching that thing should make you puke .....una dey try sha

Usefulsense:
This is my story. Please advice.

I sent my wife to Australia in 2021 on student visa.

She has invited us, myself and our children aged 12 and 9 and our visa is out. I have also paid like 6 months fees for my children school which was a requirement for the visa.

Owing to her performance at her work place, the company she works for has promised to sponsor for PR. Infact, the process just began and we are sure of having the PR.

I am currently 48 and won't be able to support my family working in Nigeria. Wify has encouraged me that we will be fine that abroad is meant for 2 people.

My only constraint is my age, hence my question. If you are in my shoe, will you travel?

By the way, I work for a private firm here in Nigeria and you know what it is working for a family company.
Bros, more than 50% of my extended family resides in Australia....Largely, I think it's a great country, decent place to raise kids, you will enjoy it...
My observation, they hardly visit home because of the distance and I notice that when they come, they hard do laulau like the Yankee and Canada people...their kids are well behaved..All their thing is low-key but they look good, no stress at all...It's a country I'll visit soon even if am 90 yrs.

Omo! How do I handle such situations next time?
Because why you go order ride when you no get money, we reach finish bill na 2600 you are now telling me "it's 1k I have, send account when I hustle finish I'll pay"
The truth is, atleast maybe once a week or a month, you will encounter such Werey ..Picked a trip from V.i to Ikeja Gra last week, the offer (3,900) was very low but it's a destination trip for me so I did it..On 3rd mainland, he pleaded that he wants to pick something in that harvester church at Gbagada, that I should pls stop for some few mins, I was angry ehn but they guy was kinda friendly from d beginning of d trip so I decided to stop for him..He took 10 mins and later we proceed, Lagos Marriott at Joel ogunnaike was d destination..A minute before we end trip, I ask oga if it's transfer so that he can start doing it, he was quiet, I remind him again ND he said transfer, by that time we don reach hotel, oya oga pay nau, he said ehmmm just text ur account number to me, I'll send it to you after my meeting..
Honestly, I didn't know when I yelled abi god wan punish you and the meeting, this guy appears to be younger than me, he started begging o, that he will send it, he swore with everything, security don gather, shame con dey catch me sef, na so I leave am...
Two days after, he paid, after much threatening sha

Family › Re: Should A Child Of This Age Be Sent On An Errand? by dapotemi: 1:22pm On Aug 27, 2023
lawrenzoo:
Good day, Nairaland families. I would appreciate it if mature and responsible families in the house could enlighten me on this. My son is only 7 years and 4 months old, and I allow him and his 5 year old sister to do minor chores such as making their beds when they wake up, sweeping their rooms to some extent, taking their plates to the kitchen after eating, and brushing their teeth at night. However, there is one thing I frown upon in the house, "Sending a young guy of his age on street errands," but I discovered that my wife finds it so easy to do so.

Most times my wife would want to get simple stuff like detergent and so, she calls him which i do stop from happening most times since i am of a personal opinion that it is rather too unsafe for him and he should not be sent on an errand alone until he is at least 10years old and above.

Please i want to know if I am simply the one overreacting and too overprotective OR a child of that age should not be sent on an errand?
It depends on the kind of environment you live...My 6 yrs old girl does alot of errand for her mum but I stay in a close, quite safe....So I will say it depends so much on your environment but if you feel it's not safe, discuss with madam first, let her see reason with you and both of you agree....Infact, you can find out those things madam usually buy on the street, and maybe get them in bulk!! Find a solution that will be appealing to everyone.Dont teach your boy to be disobidient.

All countries who hate being second to US and would like to overthrow but can't get along long enough to do so. Especially India and China. As long as the dollar is the international currency of trade, they can be hit hard by sanctions when they misbehave. They want to adopt another currency. Problem is, who's currency grin

They recently got another five or so countries and account for over 50 percent of the world's oil which is why they think they can make a move now. It ain't happening though.
