Even if you buy 30k fuel and make 20k profit, it is considered as a good business

Biodun1929:
Lol...man can have hope. I notice that when I see 700-1,000 per km in the past it's most times short distances.

Biodun1929:
Hmm...but before fuel increased by 300 naira, 400 naira per km was what I aimed for...I would think right now, aiming for 600 naira per km would make more economic sense.

Below.is screenshot of the 2 days I worked this month, before my car spoil..When I fixed it, fuel went up so I haven't worked since fuel went up...but I always aim for 400-500 naira per km before fuel increase. I just feel id I'm to work with this new fuel roicr I should aim for 600-700 naira per km.

Nothing hurts more than reaching a pickup points and rider cancels the ride ..

Kumuyiii:
I've complained about this many times, use estates block roads, na sanwo olu even help Lekki Phase 1, b4 Lekki Phase 1 was a nightmare.... Everywhere gate, code... Kai nigeria jagajaga, authorities are aware oh, but them go don use money silence them.

Kumuyiii:
Yes i suppose, i don taya, but na why i like eod, parts cheap so I no dey overthink am. BY THE WAY, AJAH TO VI IS BLOCKED. NO PUT BODY

Biodun1929:
Lol...it has happened to me many times but the one that paned me the most was the one that happened recently. I reached pick up point after passing thro ugh bad horrible road, I saw the 2 Oloshos about 4 buildings in front of me. I picked up phone to call, that's how one yellow commercial bus filled with olosho girls was passing, they waved it down and jumped in. And immediately they cancelled. Chai. I felt like ramming into that bus.

Jamie90:
I don’t consider the returns on the business to be worth such risk.

Kumuyiii:
Thank you, i even forgot that one... Them rob one guy for general paint here, his window was down, them stab am

Jegheter:
Yeah I get you. Me ave been doing similar even before this craziness but now I don't use ac so I'm balanced. Other than d AC issh which even affects me more but ave switched to early morning and late evening till late like I dey outside my now maybe till 10 or I exhaust my fuel.

This is November last year dash with similar stats

Gentlelife50:
Let them talk, I shock the day I boarded one fine new space bus and it was raining I told the driver to put on the AC so the mist will disappear.
To my greatest surprise this man said he disconnected it, I asked why he couldn't just cme up with one tangible reason.
A lot of people are ignorant, that's why a lot of persons are scared of naija used cars.

Jegheter:
If we wey to hit d express and travel interstate yes you sud switch on d AC cause u don't brake and accelerate alot unlike inner city driving like what we typically do here. Even if u hit d express u still find urself back in civilization almost immediately with lots of cars and sharp braking etc.

So yes it most definitely affects consumption at least I have tested it and have resolve to keep doing it. So today I started early. Before 6 and stopped when d sun was coming out by 11ish.

So I plan to start again by 4 this evening like one brother does here. I think tobby

Kpoksie01:
I am a bit confused. I thought I read earlier on this post that Indrive %commission is now btw 13 - 14%.

Them tell you say them no know?

It's like between the 3 companies, them dey fear to raise am, make dem no lose customers to the other, unless the 3 companies are in unison to raise prices, nothin will happen.

cyif2003:
I understand u bro. But I doubt we can all come together to protest or even strike. No uniformity amongst nigerians

Pearl1910:
This question u asked now, who do u want to answer it for u?
U even said u might spend 30k fuel on this trip to and fro.
So are u saying u are okay to profit just 20k to go to Abeokuta and come back to Lagos?

For u to even ask this question it tells me na una type dey do economy trips and rush rubbish fares on Indrive. 50k is too much collect 35k

capetownboyz:
Is 50k enough taking Someone from Lagos to Abeokuta going and coming back and 30k fuel budgets ..

roydenavas:
na true u talk boss but for suzuki drivers like us that need to remit almost 20k daily we prefer uber because of the quest money

capetownboyz:
Spent so much on fuel today 20k and the way got finished so fast with just 5trips,mehn I barely made my return from this trips . The one that pained me the most was passing through a no entry sign along oniru coughed up 6k bribing this police on bikes ..crazy day fr ..

Biodun1929:
With Indrive, you just have to know how to play their game...you might have to spend time waiting, but it definitely can be better than Uber if you select the rides tou pick.

roydenavas:
me and indrive as uber log me out on the 4th of march
