Omoapena:
Should I just go back to mobil after ringing..

Mobil 5w30
That total 20W50 is too thick for the engine.
That's what I found out.

Omoapena:
We no even know who to believe like this, mechanics go talk say total dey okay pass mobil, you dey talk say mobil dey okay pass am...

Bro, from my personal experience. Mobil is better than total. I did a service with total and immediately my engine started tapping. Mind you that tapping sound was not there before the oil change. Immediately I had to drain the entire total oil and bought Mobil oil. Could you believe that after using Mobil, I started engine. The sound became normal and silent as before.
Since then I just cancelled anything total.

Omoapena:
I'm not sure too cox this mechanic over here said nozzle n they later said piston or valve n they have to bring down my engine but I don't trust them

Taking it to my mechanic for proper check, I'm at ijebu ode now

Don't mind those mechanics.
Check your coils first before anything else.

WareLogMan:
My vehicle jacked last week too, though t it was the plug, told them to change Everything only for it to jack again yesterday. Especially when in traffic. But it's still moving.

Whst might be the cause, can it be the nozzle too?

Several things can cause jerking.
If your car is moving well on a free road and jerks in traffic. Check your coils, one of them is dead and causing misfires.

nairalanda1:
As much as you would mock me, the solution, since 2013 , for me has been pay market price for power.

At the end, you can laugh, call me agbado, call me names, but if 80% of the country is not paying market price and 40% is not even paying....where is the money gonna come from.

But you are not here to discuss power issues, you are here to fight with those you perceive to be APC supporters. Since I am not in apc or your pdp...adieu.

What's prepaid meter for. Power companies are metering people and no one can use electricity without buying token.

So, that's not enough money abi

vanbonattel:
Suffer no dey tire you?

I swear, these kind of people needs more suffering and the government is ready to give it to them 100 folds.

Those in bank A are crying and this person still believes they should pay more for power

Is there anytime power grid have not been collapsing

Jacksonfire:
Why is it that only majority of people in Lagos state driving for bolt always assail my post
I will not argue with you yet. Do you know what?? Leave that your comfort zone. Relocate to Edo state, Benin city and continue driving for bolt constantly without thinking for other alternative to survive. only then you will understand what I have been dishing out lately... Hope you ain't Imperceptive You can see other people are also complaining..

If your advice is specifically for drivers in Edo, PH and other states. Then specify it in your various post. The situation in other states is completely different from Lagos.

I also understand that people in Abuja have device a different model for this business and it's paying them.

Lastly, I can't relocate to Edo State unless I see something better than what I do presently.

I do travel to Edo, Delta and other Southern states.

I don't believe in complaining about a situation. I believe every situation, no matter how ugly can be used to our advantage.

Jacksonfire:
Most people are still driving for bolt just to survive BECUS their minds has already been programmed to be slaves. They are too lazy to seek for other opportunities to better their lives. Now aboki people come full the hustle with Yaris car... This hustle should be side hustle not wasting ur time from morning till night. Some drivers even sleep in their car over the night till day break just to meet up target and chop promo bonus.. modern day enslavement..

This your account you just created July 30 2024 is just to troll drivers.

Let me share you just little of my personal life experience. I used to have a lucrative business years ago (I won't mention the name of the business) that particular business sponsored me throughout university, was paying my rent and supporting family members for years.

After University, I closed down the business and decided to take up 9am - 6pm job. The job was taking care of bills and all. But I have to wake up 4am everyday and by 5am, I'm already on the road to Awoyaya that's where my office is.

I stay on the mainland (Alagbado) precisely. I did this work for about 8yrs. I had to resign to venture into Ehailing. Now, I have been doing Ehailing for over a year. I won't say is the best after sliced bread. But, I can manage my time and how much I make weekly.

So basically, we all can't be in an office or shop. Ehailing is service rendering in the transportation sector and is a big business.

Omoapena:
Make sure you do only surge trip n if you're not in surge zone, take a trip into the surge zone
Goodluck

Okay, thanks.

Mobil is selling 1050, I just bought 30k worth of fuel. Which is about 28.5l,

Make I see how much I can gross with this fuel first.

Omoapena:
Wait, fuel price has truly gone up to 998/l?

This price na just official NNPC price o.

So the rest fuel stations will definitely be over 1000/l

Omoapena:
Very possible, you can make 80k with 20k fuel in a day and go home with 40k, so paying your partner 50k from 40k daily profit shouldn't be hard...

Is this really possible with 1k/L fuel

skiillzautos:
Baseus Bipow Display Power Bank 30000mah,

Can Charge 3 devices at once.

Well Maintained.

Price: 30k

Location: Ogbomosho, Oyo State.

Tel: 07035519174 or whatsapp.

No vase o.
I don't mean to attack you.
This powerbank is it different from the new one that is advertised here for 28k brand new.
I'm just trying to wrap my head on how you are selling a used one for 30k and new one is 28k.
Just curious

Dundalk:


#HMSTR, from CEO to see food chop

The official price is not out yet. Wait till 1pm tomorrow

Omoapena:
Same here, I will rather wait 2 to 3 hours than accepting those ridiculous trip.


Someone once told me that those drivers will accept it and when they get to destination, they start telling rider to pay a certain amount, when I heard, I'm like some people can be studio sha...

The few times I tried to renegotiate, riders ask me why did I pick the trip if the price is not okay. I was speechless

Omoapena:
I don't want to believe they are picking them up and driving to the rider to renegotiate, and if they are renegotiating on the app, I don't think that will work either.

I can't even stress myself to accept only to start renegotiating, I see those indrive riders as broke people looking for cheap fare.

You are right. Still trying to wrap my head on how those drivers are coping with those prices.
I prefer waiting longer to get a good trip than picking nonsense price.

Omoapena:
Wait, so this riders are actually hoping someone will pick this trips...

The prices on Indrive are ridiculously cheap, drivers are picking them up like that probably renegotiating.
Personally, still trying to master the act of renegotiating though.

Sandralight:
Thank you Sir
I just received the alert, I am really grateful 🙏
This is so amazing Sir

Please @sandralight, I don't know if you will see this message. I can't send in messages on the telegram group. Even writing you privately is not delivering. It seems my telegram was restricted from sending messages. I tried every means to reach out to you since Sunday. Before I just searched for your name here on nairaland. I will appreciate if you can reach me. This is @Amnoob from caritas group.
Thanks.

Pearl1910:
Sorry bro... U no quick talk.

No wahala.

Pearl1910:
You are not a driver.

@pearl1910, me I be full time driver o. Infact since yesterday I dey house due to severe noise from front left leg of my car. I managed borrow money pay weekly remittance yesterday. Now na money to fix the leg I dey find so. If the money still remain make e reach my side o. Normally I don't like complaining online but as everywhere red so. I no get option.

I fit supply you evidence if necessary. One of our comrade here self know about my situation.

Nelochukwu:
Na lie oo. 1hr plus can't be 30mins but I get ur drift and besides 90percent or more the estimated time becomes the actual time when consummated.

From my driving experience in Lagos. The estimated time is always accurate. If there's no standstill traffic. You will definitely arrive at the estimated time.

If the traffic is heavy, the arrival time will increase. But I have NEVER seen it reduced by 30mins as he said above.

Sundays for example, the estimated time is 100% accurate because roads are very free.

Sirianese:
The duration is estimated, it's not set in stone; you can pick a 1hr 22min trip and end up spending 30 minutes. There's an element of chance embedded in there and that's what those dudes picking such trips are using to make money.

How?
A 1hr 22min trip and end up spending 30mins?

Is this an exaggeration or you are just playing.

Pearl1910:
Unfortunately Yes it is. But u are not a driver

Pearl, I no understand how the money was shared o. I no see my own o.

Welz:
people keep saying this and I wonder why. What exactly do you want people to do? Just this last protest that happened some people were arrested and charged with treason. Fighting the current system/government is a waste of time right now.

Protest is good 😂
But make government no catch you, once you are caught O.Y.O is your case.

Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta expressway.
If you can drive through this road then you and your car are legends. It has been abandoned since the tenure of PDP's Pa Obasanjo. President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will fix it.

The road been expanded is Idiroko road leading to Canaanland winners chapel. It's a different road entirely from Lagos Abeokuta Expressway.
