Bros read up again u r contradicting ur sef

IFSHR:
If you know how many people begged with more than that just to get their car out when it involves one way boss...na straight to auction o expect them never write the paper...

I know of someone that went to auction with 1.5m just to price out his car with abeg Abeg so that no one will out bid him.

Felicity001:
Yes you did say that and I remember vividly, but baba leave ooh... No go involve for any one way matter wey no concern you oooh especially if na LAGS TF hold the person ooh if you like call Sanwo Olu and once he knows your offense brother forget, its finish... Him fit come back come buy tear rubber of any car of your choice oh but you see that your car so? Na shara. Voom! Auction straight.

e happen right in my eyes, 2014 land cruiser the man came on that fateful day, in white agbada with his white bears (money is good my brother) and was bragging, las las we didn't know when he left with his team...

When my own happened I called DG VIO's wife, in her words- "A government official can only support you financially, but i and my husband can not be involve in any case relating to One-way especially with Anti-One Way squard, the governor himself has sent a warning to all" my blood freeze those her words still ring a bell in my spirit man

But that doesnt mean one can't get away with some though.

So guy be calming down.

Inbtw, some people say my post don too much so henceforth, I'll stop posting.

Make una take care.... ejioma oooh

IFSHR:
The connect work o....in other situation that car is gone.. take my words for it

deedee44:
Em em.. what's the point mentioning you have a friend who is highly connected and quickly made some calls to the top oga blah blah blah.. when las las you still paid the complete fine.

Blackbishop:
Bro I wasn't flexing muscle, I was not fixing car. on the paper written for me they wrote left the car and walked away. In fact e pain me say I don delete the videos. That was the point that got me mad first. I was asking the baba why didnt he asked them what transpire before issuing a ticket na the response make the matter scatter.... I dey always talk e get wetin I go do for lag wey I go they fear.

One point is never drag or insult them allow them do them worst and make your call jejely if you sabi. He started making calls for me that army captain na him son say dem go beat me. Immediately he dropped his call I first call OP MESA patrol commander Officer John if he is anywhere around island before I called the guy at Airforce base at ikeja. Then calling the Governor's army guy. All of them follow this man talk politely without flexing muscle before dem and dem no be riffraff .


I once mention it here that if anybody hold anyone of you for Oshodi call me. Make you pass 1 way you are covered. This is not mouth it is me paying my dues as at when due.

pope191:
Is the person Felicity? Just asking if we have to cut exemption or b watchful of such driver. I guess that's part of the reason we r here.

Pearl1910:
The good thing about ehailing, is that u can plan, ur destiny is in ur hands, if u want to make 50k a month, it's in ur hands, if u want to make 100k it's in ur hands, if u want to make 200k it's in ur hands. Just work it out.
You actually can beat your chest and say in 5yrs this is what I would have achieved, unlike 70k salary job. My comparison of ehailing with 8-5 is if ur salary is not upto 150k I have made this clear over and over. At the end it's still a personal choice, if u want to do ur 100k salary job, by all means...it's ur choice, cos u know ur body, u have aspirations and u know what u can do and tolerate. As for me, I can't go into paid employment again except they are ready to pay 400k minimum. Only fools doubt proof and it is foolishness to be shameful of what is gainful. I will only continue to show/highlight the potentials in this biz.
I value my time. This week I worked only 4days and I have netted 80k already, if I enter road later today, I can easily make 10k. It's not easy but I prefer this to sitting in the office and getting peanuts at the end of the month... I have my freedom, and I can still do other things on the side.
Driving has its downsides because if u don't work, no money for u, but even in paid employment, d day u r absent without permission, ur salary is slashed, u will answer querry and if repeated u risk losing ur job. Moreover, what u make in 1day, if u decide to sleep d next day u r still fine.
Also, It can be boring, but just find how to motivate yourself.

Finally, I understand it's not always about money, everyone has d liberty to choose what he wants to do with his/her life in other to feel fulfilled and accomplish purpose.

I sincerely hope Baz001 and others will see this post, read it well and understand it so tomorrow they will not misrepresent my stand.

BAZ001:
All this epistle on sunday morning.
I will read it when I get back from church

Do i tell him to remove the fluid or it can be managed

donfortune48:
Comrades.
I think we should give Felicity001 days of activity on this thread. Say once a week, or once a fortnight.

His tales here are too long and mentally draining to cope with.

Someone would just want to breeze in and out of the thread for 5mins, and his long epistles won't allow you.

Why will a same person use over 2000words to make a single point?

Felicity001:
Dey dis dey post quote,

na small small cancer take dey enter body

na fly wey no dey hear world dey follow dead body enter grave



Don't make the mistake of thinking or believing in giving advice o... I'm only teaching those behind me and not ahead of me

topsydee007:
Thank you so much

Please how do I contact radauto

Felicity001:
This is the truth and it will set free those that listen.

1. Army don't have any civil right over a civilian whatsoever, as a matter of fact they're not supposed to even have anything to do with a civilian, that's why the government keeps them in barracks only come out to create peace and orderliness when crisis is overwhelming for the police and most importantly for war fights.

2. It's an offence to both a military personnel and the person that called the military personnel on a civilian, under the law its called intimidation. The military personnel if reported will be sanctioned and quarried by his superior and the person who made the call will be charged by the NPA (if a civilian) or military police (if a fellow military personnel).

3. No military personnel can/has the power to arrest a civilian unless the state/country iz under a military rule. Police for civilian and Military Police (the once with red beret) for fellow military personnel (this sect of military are more intelligent and strong than the combat military men because their duty is for fellow military personals)

*** your ignorance also played out in the situation, but it's good you later intervened and thank your stars its not Lagos State Task Force that arrested that your driver. Those once na police them be anywhere they arrest your car in Lagos they take it straight down to Alausa. Those once don't listen to "abeg". They either auction your vehicle or you pay according to year and make of the car and the least they collect is N150k.

Sacking/changing of employees will not/never make any establishment better or progress better, do it unless when necessary but never to simple mistakes.
Mistake is inevitable in every human and the laws of the land makes it more interesting. Weather you accept it or not that driver is a better person today compare to the days he haven't had that experience. so he left with that experience to another employer the one you will hire next may not have had such experience before and might commit same in the future even if you like give daily warning "don't follow one way", then you may not be lucky with a 100k. He may even get himself or somebody else killed. I've seen it happened severally.***

So lets be wise in our decision making. Entrepreneurs in Nigeria are one of the best persons on planet earth weather they succeed or failed. Those that even failed are miles better. The reasons are obvious.

We were tought in business school, no employee is a waste... Also, its not business wise to allow a young trained (the one you've trained either with time, money or orientation) employee leave your establishment after. You'll need time to train and catch up another...


So be wise!

BAZ001:
I agree with you
but this is my point of view or comparison

1. Ehailing is not meant for graduates and masters degree holders. for example a young graduate in Nigeria who has a job let’s say customer care and earns 100k and is a contract staff. If he works for 3yrs in the office it will be easier for him to move to another coy or jappa to Canada than another graduate that is only driving on Uber.

2. You can’t drive for more than 3yrs and net 100k weekly and your health or life still remains normal. But dt contract staff can work for 5yrs and more.

3. Have you wondered how cashier at banks who earning 70k still pay for house rent, child school fees, buy car and land ? Some are runs and some loans.

4. Yes we all in dis rat race but
Ehailing in Lagos is extreme suffer (d traffic, d govt boys, d mad people , d robbery, d 419 fake transfer, bad roads) you will agree with me that it’s something to do a little and move to plan B
Same way contract staffs in office looking for plan B.

BAZ001:
I didn’t buy car to do Uber, I was misled by dashboard and quickly register my car to start driving. But when I got in I saw the reality. So I try to caution people from making same mistake.
However I’m not saying there is no money in d hustle, but it is not sustainable (you can’t drive for 3yrs netting 50k per week and be okay.) you will make money driving but how long can you drive ?

Uber has been a stop gap for me, when chips are down, I carry car and hustle, when things pick up, I drop car and move on. It gives u fast money with no boss or beg to apply.

Alright sir, I will quit Uber and join you in yankee soon, just make sure you are not in Nigeria when I come

Let me shout it, there is big money driving you can make 300k and more in dis hustle if you stay online for more than 18 hrs everyday

topsydee007:
Good evening everyone. Please I need your advice.

I recently bought engine for Mr Toyota Corolla LE 2003. The mechanic that fixed it for me recommend that I use VISCO 2000 engine oil which I did. Now I have made some research online and discover they VISCO 2000 isn't a good oil for the car. I have driven the car for about 2500 Odometer with the VISCO 2000 oil and no issues.

I want to change my engine oil to a very good oil,. I don't want oil that will damage the engine I borrowed money to buy at the long run.

Please if I change the oil will it affect the engine?

Kindly recommend a very good oil I can use that is relatively affordable.

Pardon me I discovered mobil 1 is good but very very expensive.

Is there any Other good oil out there that isn't too expensive?

Please your advice will be highly appreciated

BAZ001:
The only thing I’m against and will never agree with is the phrase “Ehailing is better than career salary earners”. I picked a young guy in suit cool boy, we got gisting and he said he wants to join the hustle that a driver told him to resign is 200k job cos d driver earns 150 k every week. I screamed liiiieeeeee. He said no 150k before commission and that he’s left with 120k every week. I still shouted liar driver.
Told him the real Koko and the guy agreed he won’t resign but will start driving on weekends.
The worst thing a young man will do in Nigeria of today is to resign a job to come and drive

Blackbishop:
I need to drop this gist here.

I was picking up a vehicle at Brilla FM at Lekki with overheating issue. On getting to Civic centre opposite 1004 the car was already heating up. So I parked to let it cool down, so in the process I got a keg of water out to fill the radiator and next thing tow truck came and start attaching dem stuff to the car saying illegal parking.

Without stress I allowed them satisfy themselves and they drove me to their site at Muri Okunola VIO office. Immediately we got there the baba on duty just drop a ticket of 50k on my car.

Na there I change am for them. Para for them seriously that all the men in the compound come they tell me say i no go comot. The man they refer to as the commander started bragging of having 2 sons as captain in the army, na dere my head burst say this man dey whine me.

I just went to his front and asked him to call them come or if them no dey make him call GOC come. Omo this man pick fone dey make calls and ask someone to send boys to him that someone was insulting him here.

After that i just pick my phone call my guy that is working with Sanwo Olu, he's one of the army guy as escort to Sanwo Olu.... luckily he was around 4 point to deliver something to alake.

Na so my guy blow pilot and siren come VIO office show dem ID card omo respect start to they fly next thing the guy asked them if they like to transfer my car to Alausa or he should call the PA to governor.

Immediately the case die. Next thing dem turn my padi start to dey give me number say anywhere for lagos dem stop me make I call them.

In all one thing I know be say Mad people dey lag, just make sure say your madness is educated

BAZ001:
I understand very loud and clear but I need to shout louder for people reading and ready to join hustle to think twice.

See time I dey enter house all in d name of netting 100k, how many weeks/months can u go like this and next week someone will flaunt dashboard without adding d stress&suffer.

If I talk now, they will say I don't love Nigeria, just imagine

Chichilas:
Hello Fellow Nairalanders,

I have had this persistent issue for the last 2 Months. I trucked a couple of cars to a shipping company in New York to be shipped via container to Lagos, Nigeria. The other two cars needed to complete the container was also delivered by a fellow Nairalander who i am sharing the container with in March.

For over 2.5 months, the shipping company has claimed that the container terminal in the New York Port is not open and that Cosco terminal is not receiving containers for onward shipment due to Port Congestion and as a result, all cars and goods are just at the warehouse. I have tried to verify from other shippers but there is no concrete information regarding container shipment from New York either on the internet or from fellow shippers. I am beginning to get worried and uncomfortable.

Can any Nairalander please advise if he/she is experiencing this same situation or do you know anyone whose container is being delayed from New York for whatever reasons?

I would really appreciate opinions and suggestions.

BAZ001:
That’s why I keep shouting to people who care, that dashboard doesn’t reflect true earnings cos you will minus suffer, bad road, hot sun, traffic from earning and say u hammer.
Office people won’t suffer dis much to earn salary so u should stop comparing them

peeps4u:
You're right, it was Dru vs Gazuzz face off that glued me to this thread years ago, and them one Jesusson also. So many interesting characters here.

Duke111:
These bros u mentioned can write the whole book of isaiah just to prove how they met xhp keg in the boot of full synthetic car owner. lol lol
U have to read carefully to understand their inputs hence u will left behind.

But without them sha dis thread will fade out like harmattan in Lagos.
