The officer that came near my window was telling other ones in Yoruba " Uber ni" he is an uber man.
But let's wait for your time, you probably may have a clear picture.

Your details are sketchy n not comprehensible.

What actually happened?

Were you on the service lane n you were supposed to turn right on RED. N you didn't turn or wat.?

Or you were on the Zebra crossing ?

Or perhaps ur car was beyond the STOP white line?

How can they suddenly cross you for no reason?

Give a better account n stop this sensational stuff

I decided to lay low and mind my business, but will stuppid ever allow me be? For the last few days, I saw a lot of stuppid flying around and it has been itching me to talk. I try to zip my mouth but the thing is scratching me on my body.

First and foremost, why are some imbecilles talking about protesting against Uber who obviously gave you a job? Shouldn't your hopeless Government be the one the protest is against? You are robbed while on duty. You report to Uber and uber repays you? Your passenger bolts with your money and Uber reimburses you the money with apology? Has your iddiotic government ever done that for you?

You morrons live in a country where 95% of Uber drivers are graduates. Granted its not really a bad job but was that the life dreams of many of you? Most of you where idle and hopeless before Uber decided to bail you out of your misery. So why the protest against them?

By the way I ask again, are some of you mad? Show me one driver on this forum that has been harassed by VIO. NONE! ZILCH. Why the hopeless panic then?

ONLY ONE ANIMAL HAS BEEN RAMPAGING ON THIS THREAD CAUSING PANIC. You can even see Uber's response calling it isolated incidents which it clearly is. Have you guys ever bothered to ask if the animal doing this thing on this forum has an Uncle working with VIO? Even the purported WhatsApp message that went viral could have been doctored by an imbeccile somewhere.

Some of you are too docile for my liking.

How I wish I can meet this young man causing this panic on this forum. I will hit him with a jackhammer dividing his head instantly. I won't think twice before doing this. Because he is a complete imbeccile, a nincompoop and a mountain goat.

I was planning to lead a bloody protest before because this country is not fun anymore. But should I try it, some charlatans will say stuffs like

"Ibo man go back to your state"

"Omo Ibo wants to take over Lagos"

So I will chill. Again, let me remind some of you dim-witted imbecciles supporting this protest that Uber is a Tech company. Uber is not a transport company. Uber legally signed up with your government and they were accepted after paying the relevant taxes.

In the case of Keke, there was a law that mandated their ban. Even before they were banned legally, Fashola had to approach the house of assembly to make a law on that. For Uber to be seen as a transport company, the Lagos government has to approach the house of assembly and they make a law on that. As for now, Uber is still a tech firm offering ride sharing services. But will some of you ever learn?

Uber has a physical office. If they were really owing any money, whybhas there office not been locked? What the hell is operator licence and why are most of you believing every cock and bull bullshyt concocted by some IMBECCILES on cyber space? Are you aware that this could be the work of all those NURTW animals seeking to localise your work? Your own personal car become Kabu Kabu? God Forbid!

Me? Donate money to a hopeless tout called MC OLUOMO? On what basis? Kitikpa gbagbuo ya dia.

Am even getting feeder information that the government wants to launch there own cab services that will be technologically driven. That will be the death of ehailing as we know it because everything will be Jaga Jaga. Everything will be scatter scatter. Anything that government handles in Nigeria dies an instant death immediately.

Why am I even talking. I have my own plans already which will shake the whole world. I know my destination and I will arrive there soon. I will seriously fucck this country up. On that note,

Fucck Nigeria

Fucck her government

Infact Fucck everything fucckable about her

If you support them, fucck you too

Useless nation!

I just escaped them, [Lastma] arresting uber. At Kudirat Abiola way Oregun, I was waiting for traffic light to turn green, they use their van to cross us, I arrested the guy before me I reverse and climbed their iron that punched my tire, but I escaped, I'm going offline by tomorrow.

pope191:
Gbam! The govt is yet to attack anybody, all dis vio issue is more like hearsay, not even up to 2% out of the total drivers, it may just b overzealous officers takinv the laws into their hand, when the govt went for the keke guys, it was published. So offline and sit at home is good to send a msg to uber, but as for government, they have no issue with us or audio issue for now, so dia is no need to go wake what is not fighting us.

Thanks for the indepth advice, I believed the poster has ears to hear.

northbird:
You didn't tell us how many MONTHS he spent working before he started making the ACCLAIMED 80k / week. Or he just started n making d 80k.

You won't learn anything as An Uber driver. Its not always about the Earnings.

The op is in Abuja. You don't have any idea of how transport works in d FCT.

Currently, there is no one dt can make 80k /week by doing Uber and Bolt.

Those that make REAL money in Abuja work Offline and Interstate. and not using Uber or bolt.

Mynewdawn15:
Good Afternoon All.

Please my car has been seriously consuming fuel.
I bought it as a Nigerian used January 2019, when I bought the car, the thermostat has been removed with the fan connected direct, AC also converted to manual compressor.

I reverse the fan connection to factory setting, bought thermostat and everything has been working fine, after 5 months the AC compressor got burnt (the excuse of the technician then was that since my fan is not connected direct the manual compressor can retain heat reason why it got burnt), got a poeguet 406 compressor, after some months it started leaking and eventually got burnt.

Changed AC technician, the new guy bought big daddy compressor, changed condenser and Evaporator also recommended that I connect the fan direct else the compressor will get burnt again. After that my AC has been working fine but my car consumes fuel like mad. The fan is running direct with my thermostat still intact. No check engine light, I already scanned it no error code. Spark Plugs are burning fine.
Ltft is - 25% while STFT is between 3.5% and - 1.6%

Kindly help on what to do to reduce the fuel consumption.

Won't the compressor burn again if I return the fan to factory setup?

Car is Toyota camry 2008 I4.

You want to leave SURE 150k per month for turbulent and uncertain UBER.!
Don't try it.

If u r into IT, your skills will deepen n you can consult.

What skills will you get driving Uber? Zero skills. Just another case of glorified taxi driving.

For you to earn that same 150k monthly on Uber , you will have to make a GROSS income of #280,000.

Gross- 200,000
You- 150,000
Uber%- 50,000
Fuel - 80,000

That means long hours on the road. Don't be deceived, you will literally toil to get such income, week in week out.



Don't misconstrue wat I said, you cud leave your job to pursue some better things yes.

But to leave your 150,000k job for Uber, Capital NO.

PS: Don't give anyone your car. Drive in ur little time , make any dough you can n maintain your family and the car.

Goodluck !

Lateef91:
Pls brothers i need your advice now.

i am married with 2kids, i am an IT consultant, i am currently working as a full time in a company where i earn 150k monthly.
i have saved money to buy 03 Toyota corolla last month, i have customers that request for my services often, and the company does not allow me to attend to my customers base on the contractual agreement. since, i have gotten a car now, i want to be using the car as side hustle (Uber hustle i meant) and i want to be able to have time for my customers and when i am less busy i will switch to uber.


Been having headache working with this company since 2yrs now.

Alexious:
Yea, just relax and think about it. Its well with you sir.

funkymeky:
Please who knows of a good auto mechanic here in Port Harcourt where i can service my Lexus ES 350. And is there anyone here that has changed the Ac compressor of ES 350 please. I would love to join the WhatsApp group please

bodeface:
Team. Good evening.
Please, I want to service my car RX350 2011 for the first time since I bought it, my mechanic is recommending Mobil XHP 20W-50 instead of synthetic oil, he said since the engine has accumulated milage, (approx 100K) that the synthetic is not good for the engine.
Appreciate advice from senior members

Alexious:
Evening, from experience, I won't advice you to resign just yet. The Ehailing business is not as easy as it is being portrayed. Since you are an IT personnel and skilled, I'll advice you keep working, save more, if possible register your side hustle or business, get ready to be your own boss. As for the car, give it to reputable fleet management company and ull be getting remittances paid to you weekly. Still find a way to attend to your side hustle customers as discretely as possible for now. Keep your job now and think of ur family too.
Regards.

But I use Honda Accord 2004 (e.o.d) around early last year and I tell you when the transmission problem start ehn, I tire for life self. But I know those mechanic did not know anything the moment the gear still works but some times it won't even enter d4 at all only reverse be driving the car like manual for almost a month before someone told me to tell my mechanic to remove the gear switch and one other filter and then service the gear. My brother the car was Hale and hearty back after being told the gear don go patapata. I will just tell you to just let us know how the transmission is doing and I tell you someone who may have similar issue would be here to help out.

Hello everyone, for honda 1999 and above.

Honda has the best gear among others, but many people are not aware of the secret.
If you observe any or those fault in your Honda gear. The only thing to do is to get a good Honda mechanic, tell him to remove the two solenoids also called gear changers ( see the picture below). These solenoids are have filters like engine filters, they are two on the gear box. They need to loose the air filter component and battery before you can see them on the gear box. The two solenoids get clogged over time and that’s normal to remove or prevent dirts from entering the main gear.

So when these two solenoids get clogged, there will be a restriction in the flow of oil into the gear and you begging to see all these various symptoms like delay in gear changing, blinking, gerkings etc.

Also the mechanic should test the solenoids with battery and two wire to see if the pumping system is still working, because if the clogged dirt is too much it would have damaged the solenoid pump. So in this case you have to change the solenoids.
After the cleaning it is better to change the gear oil as this indicates that there are dirts in the gear oil.

I recommend oando dextron III from a good oando filling station .
Stop buying oil on road side shops to avoid buying fake.

Don’t just rush to change your gear. I pity many people who have dropped their gear for this little reason.
Many mechanics don’t understand this basic no matter how expert they are in other aspects.

Pls feel free to ask me any question in case you are confused.

Nothing gives me immense joy like the ban of worthless Keke, Gokada, Opay and all hopeless Okadas on Lagos roads. I was around Ogba today and I saw task force packing hundreds of keke. I was so happy.

This means with the ban of Gokada, Opay and other hopeless ehailers, more money for Uber and Bolt drivers. This also implies more free and sane roads all over Lagos so that you will complete more trips on time.

It is my warmest prayers to God to make the governor to start burning there keke and Okada. I careless. Zero Pity at all.

When Keke, Gokada, Opay and hopeless wheel barrow pushers where busy causing traffic, hitting other road users with reckless abandon, scratching cars with no pity, taking one ways, creating multiple lanes that cause untold traffic, disobeying every traffic law... Did they pity anybody? They didnt know others were seeking bread for there family too like them abi?

Now as they have been banned with full effect from February 1st, I pray the governor be ruthless and savage on them. No pity at all.

If they want, let hunger kill them and there family... I careless. Infact, let them pack out of lagos because they are hopelessly useless and wicked. They were a pain in the neck of other road users without recourse to how they felt. If am the governor, once they seize your keke or okada... Burning straight.

More Trips for Uber Bolt drivers, More money for them and there family. Death to all reckless Danfo, Keke, Okada, Opay, Gokada etc that have ever endangered the live of any person in Lagos either by driving one way or stopping suddenly in the middle of the road to pick a rider for a hopeless 50 Naira.

God bless disciplined drivers and God bless Sanwo Olu too for filling all potholes in Lagos major roads.

Thunder fire every reckeless Danfo, Okada and Keke in Lagos. May hunger and disease kill all of them. Amen.

USELESS THINGS.
