He has a right to call me Tinubu's boy thug everytime

He has a right to accuse me of supporting evil everytime

I don't have a right to respond when he does

You have a right to see mine and never see when he starts the rubbish.

Same way you never knew Akwuzu Sars massacre existed but you're very much aware of End Sars massacre.

Thank God you're not God.

Find a way to shove your bias through your nostrils so it can easily find it's way into resetting your brain 😏😏

BAZ001 made a mistake calling you Tinubu's boy, yes, you're no where close to that title because all d BAT boys I've meet are bug boys with level but you na just puppet, a toothless dog barking without a bite. Poor and miserable, nothing to show forth supporting the useless party even when it's clearly obvious the part APC is leading the country to doom.

You're a shame to not just yourself but to your entire generation, if your children grow up to see that you support this evil they will curse your carcass over and over again.

Stop displaying your shame in public and have a recess my friend.

Baz001 get levels pass u, better be humble make him help your life.

A word is enough for the wise but to you APCist wisdom is farrr... From una generation

The shame Diezani brought to us when she bought a single bra with millions of dollars and even recently committed another crime in another country again. She's home and away convict. Or I should still remind you how she sponsored you on so many business class trips with tax payers money and you couldn't criticize her one bit?

Please when you follow your uncle abi na brother or friend to check car auctions, you can use that opportunity to help those two people fighting to defend your location about where you truly are

Guy rest nah... You self no dey see say your posts no dey get any likes?

I don't even understand what you're saying...I think you should take a leave from the Internet...you're not coherent, you're blabbing..You need a therapist..Let me know if cost is a problem..I will sincerely help...
because we would spend more if we allow you enter 'market'..

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!

BlueDuck:
Ordinarily yes, but this is a buyers' market

If you stop selling your services on e-hailing today, about five (recently retrenched from office) drivers are struggling to register in your place. Naija economy is tanking, seriously

Which means the job is for the destitute, for people with no other hope apart from daily bread... Chai you're baddest

dapotemi:
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

Greatest lier of the century

Only you buy 06 Corolla wey dem dey sell 4m for 5.1m naira

Only you dey work 9hrs still dey drive Uber 12hrs all in 24hrs/day

Only you your drivers are remitting 75k

Only you pension savings can buy 4 06 Corolla easily

All of these no evidence to show

See you mates driving Uber din japa

You're single
No wife

No dependent relatives yet you're earning 1m monthly but still living in Nigeria

Suffer no dey tire you bros

Suffry dey lie ooh abeg

PrinceOfLagos:
This guy death pain me

Reckless life style
Drugs, alcohol and mismanagment killed him.

In other word, he killed himself.

How will such a talented young man decide to be a free agent... No manager, no mentor, no adviser, nothing.

RIP to him

The main reason I dish the Uber hustle is, na me dey pay you, if I don't drive you won't pay your rent or pay you staff, I own my car, I fuel it, maintain it and do many other things yet you will tell me where to go, and how much to charge and even still have the guts to block my account... Like I don't understand!

He who pays the piper dictates the tune.

But in this case it's the other way round

fk001:
Is a fact you can't deny it just because you had bad experience with few amongst them

Until your brother who is a uniform police office denies you in station then you will know police is not your friend neither your brother

Police no be better force, if I become a president by God's grace we won't have anything like NPF

Pepper dem wit one hand apple wristwatch from diaspora. Many are single and have been driving Uber for over 5yrs yet still living in Agege and when you're being asked what have you achieved in life apart from driving Uber them go carry touch light shine inside you yash

If you're single and have been driving Uber for more than 3 yrs in Nigeria my brother your village people don use your destiny

Seek help from any celestial church.

I said some of them still have their humanity in them while many of them are terrible. I was heading to gbagada and didnt know how to find my way back to oshodi then.
My subsequent experience with some of them have been terrible. They once abducted me at ilupeju that I did illegal parking and I must transfer 75k to them immediately and then pay another 75k at their office that they are taskforce on a saturday. When I called my younger bro who is a flight lieutenant with nigerin airforce at the ikeja airforce base, these guys kept driving round lagos that day that I must transfer money to them because they knew my brother and some officers were on the way to rescue me based on that call and I was sharing live locations with My brother. At the end they dumped me at Anthony and collected the 5k I had in my wallet and pointed a gun at me to drive off. Since that incident August last year, I have a big airforce sticker emblazoned on my windshield and that one they hand on the rear mirror and with that I dey pass anywhere including one way if I can't help it and latsma go carry eyes look away.

What do we then call this? Kwaraption or corruption or abiding or instigating corruption?

Las las 9ka remains d best place to live

vivalavida:
Sometime last year when I bought my car and didn't know how to even use the Google app, na that time I know say there is a difference between being driven in lagos and you actually doing the driving. I was on that expressway heading to gbagadà and didn't know how to find my way to oshodi then. I no even know wetin the map dey talk. I say a police patrol van. I drove to them and told the officer, oga I am lost. I don't know my way. Man asked me to calm down and asked me where I wanted to be. Told him I needed to get back to oshodi. He explained it vividly to me. Infact three other police guys came around to join him in explaining how I needed to drive. And I followed their description and got back to oshodi. Na for that highway I even stop ask them this question and they saw say true true this man no know where him dey go. A lot of bad eggs abound sha. Such would have arrested me there sef for illegal parking because I was not supposed to if u follow the lagos state traffic law.

Ordinary direct from Gbagada a straight road to Oshodi wey police give you na him.din make them good people... Nawaoo

Dey play!
No go ask traffic police for direct ooh

OYO

fk001:
I also once got help from police around Villa Gate Abuja, I mistakenly hit the sideways ramp and my tyre got punctured, they saw how the tyre was giving me a hard time so two of them came over rolled up their sleeve and changed my tyre, after they are done I tried giving them tip but they declined. I thanked them and left.


We also have good cops in Nigeria.

Talk that tin again and I ask them to depot you back to the shitholes

Ghost1994:
Brother ordinary Uber forum turned toxic with tribalism and grow adult display of childish behavior…

Brother I’ve master the game though. Good thing here is that they’ll show you signpost of camera ahead either speed or red light camera.

Also I’m driving Porsche 911 currently delivering this to my customer.

Note: have a plan B and japa remember not only Uk/USA be better country try and explore more. When you do try and have their license no matter how expensive it might cost you, you’ll never regret it

God will bless our hustles never give up too.

This is the original hands

Ghost1994:
Something strange happened to me today.

On the highway 6, I got a flat tyre and I parked beside the yellow emergency lane.

To my greatest surprise, cops showed up. I was so afraid that omo na wahala be this…. 😔😔 A Lagos hustler will relate to this kind of thing.

Cop:- you speaks English??

Me: yes I do

Cops:- you got extra tyre 🛞 in there?

Me: yes I do officer

Cops:- we will help you fix it you looked tired 😴 have this water.

I wanted to cry 😢 seeing the humanity in them…

They didn’t asked me anything than this and still gave me water to drink.

I remembered how my own brothers were treating me back home, I couldn’t hold my tears back.

You’ll see your brothers in need and that’s when our officials will devour on you and milk you dry.

Please try and japa don’t let anybody discourage you with everything is expensive… yes is not easy but farrrrrrr better than naija.

Note: japa with right documents and if you do, make sure you abstain from drugs and illegal deals.

You too don japa?

But this hands na oyinbo hands na not 9ja hands

Well done

kewelljoseph:
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.

Oga I repeat sell.of the car and save your long time friendship, it's not realistic. Don't believe everything you read or see here most are mirage, go closer the reality keeps running away from you.

Friendship is gold
Don't destroy friendship because of money.

Best option is to sell.of the car either to your friend by Hire Purchase @30k.weekly with no down payment since he's your friend or sell.it off outrightly to whosoever that can pay cash in full.

The car looks clean, if it's first body and under a year used with gear, ac and engine still factory fixed you can get a buyer btw 3m.to 3.5m. tokunbo of that car now is around 6-7m.

Another option I've for you is you drive it yourself at your leisure time mostly weekends, it's pays better bro.

Make your friend understand you dint want business disagreemens to come inbtw your friendship with him.

If he doesn't understand today he will definitely understand tomorrow.

Best of luck

kewelljoseph:
Ok , just came across this thread. Pls I need honest opinions o…abt to give my 2010 Corolla to a friend for Uber / bolt earnings. But I still dey get double mind. My target is 80k - 100k per week frm him. Whatever he makes on top is for him. Pls I need those people who are still in the business to advise me if it’s a good thing. Don’t worry abt trust I knw am reach house and he’s someone that maintains car very well, my concern is the profit turn out. Left to me I won sell the car put money for business but I need another source of income aside my main business. All your advice is welcomed.

Pursue more degrees?!? Hmmn. I have countless certificates and I still dey do some currently. How many people certs don help for this our beloved country...las las u nid connection to get to the dreamed stairs.

Investment on learning/education is never bad at all...in the least, there is enlightenment but, with the current affairs of our country, I wouldn't advice any body to invest his last coin on education/acquiring more degrees except he/she have strong backing ofcourse.

After over sixteen years of continuous learning, I, (we) was told in the camp to learn tailoring or barbing or soap making or carpentry etc ....just imagine the country wey we dey ....wat a harsh reality.
I very much appreciate ur analysis. U quit well based it on prevailing occurrence of our dear country.

Thanks, once again.

You're welcome

One last one, keep applying

No be everybody get God father

I believe in luck and hard work

One day e go better

Your own luck go meet you.

Best of luck brother


No be only you dey face am oo... D Tim self reach my side... It's so unfortunate but what to do nah we just have to keep pushing

Conner44:
I know say felicity sabi blow lie well well but in this particular instance he might be saying the truth.

Go on Instagram today and you would see many olosho ceo's displaying their wares (weaves, makeup etc) , anyone of them could be the type of ceo's felicity is harping on about.

Cut the niggs some slack

Your head is there but still far apart from what I'm trying to say.

I don't have oloshos (ovens) as business clients or associates neither do I've fraudulent people as client.

No be everytime car owners like to drive their cars ooh...

Me for instance, I prefer being on the passenger's side or do public transport or book a ride these days because my dm is always very busy, I do a minimum of 2jrs calls every day both out and in calls... 2hrs... That's the minimum I do daily.. poor me ooh

So na so e be my guy

MzCynthia:
Haha! Make una dey take am easy for here abeg.

Did I step on any toe?

Pearl1910:
Na u sabi ur own definition of family na me sabi my own definition of family. Let him come and tell us he pays house rent, feeding, school fees, to to work and other bills on an 80k salary and still manages to save 1m then I will know what to say.

Church closed since 8am I don reach house from Ota already.

Oh ic... Churche service of nowadays be like morning devotion

Oya nah make we e ter road abi you self no go like net 40k ni

Pearl1910:
Number 1: He didn't tell u he is a family man.
Number 2: fact still remains his salary is less than 80k in 2023.
He should think of his life fast because of the same points u made. I quite my job when I even earned more than him in 2017. A graduate earning less than 80k working 8am to 6pm Monday to friday. In a time that things are these expensive? And u are still speaking grammar
Like I said it's his decision to make but one thing is clear he can't survive with 80k salary with a family conveniently.

mamman40:
* I have to service my family.

Pearl how you miss this line is what I don't understand.

E get who no get family for this life? Even orphans have people they call family.

Family in this context of his statement to me means he's responsible for some group of persons financially, be it mother, father, kids or wife so long he has a dependant it means he has a family to look after for.

More reason I said earlier I don't like giving advice in matters have limited information on because you won't have any thing to base your advise on.

Let the OP do what's best for him abeg.


Pst. Pearl what happened today? You no go Church? Abi you don come back?

GeneralZodd:
Be calming down Akpa amu.

Na me and seun the owner of Nairaland start this Uber thread wey u dey enjoy today.

I have been around since ages

Gen Z children of nowadays will not understand


E shock you?

Nothing fit shock me again for naija

Now I know who d moniker be

By the way, tell me watin I dey enjoy abeg I no understand that part.

Shey na the fruitless Gbos gbas or the hating. I no understand, shey you or your yeye friend seun of NL don credit my aza for all the literate post I've made here for years? At least people need information concerning Uber bizness they search on Google-NL and at least I can boost of they seeing one or two of my posts...

Are you aware this thread is not complete without the moniker Felicity001...
Na you and your friend seun suppose dey praise me not you trying to tell me how you created this thread like it has made my life better... Uber na work?

Pearl1910:
Less than 80k salary, then I wonder how u must have saved a million, or how long it took u to do that. Maybe u have another source of income!
I will not tell u to continue in ur job, and I will not also say u should quit and do ehailing. Your decision will be tied to what u want in life.
Buy your car and do both then you will know if u should quit or not with time.
I made more than your monthly income between Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (3days) only

Pearl stop am!

Can you compare the time you pee on your boss's head for Uber with now?

How much was a Corolla sold then? Dapo ur frnd just bought same Corolla you bought 1.350m/1.5m then @5.1m last week. Even if you've to sell that your Corolla to this guy now would you let it go for 1.5m? No!

How much was fuel them compare to now?

He earns less than 80k and have been able to save up to a million grand, for how long? Only God knows...

Pearl, let's be honest with ourselves, how much savings can a family man in this present times save driving Uber full time? Even our much respect boy is still renting, if na so e easy to save or if truly there is a great progress in the business he would have both his own car long ago.

You of all people know what 1m is in this present economy. How long do you think it will take you to raise such amount driving Uber with family oooh.

Look, Uber driving is not for family men with wife and kid(s), you'll work like an elephant and eat like an ant. You know these things so when talking to a family man talk with caution and carefulness because their bills no be here.

Do you think vikings, BAZ001, Chucmoor and the rest that migrated driving Uber would have been able to had they been married? Unless they have family relatives who would support financially.

If you'd not pee on your boss's head then do you have an idea where you would have been by now? But anyways, life is a choice I won't criticize anyone on the choices they make because I do not know the numbers of options at their disposal at the point.

dckng16:
Felicity you very wicked and very discouraging

And you're more wicked and sadist than myself.

Just open your mouth waaaah!

Show us you bolt or indriver app for last week let's see how many hours you drove.

By the way, who you be self, this moniker is strange to me.

Are you part of those that joined during that recent giveaway?

Oh I get it now, you just want to comment so people can say you're an old timer when give away time comes... Okay I c... Our reputable treasurer in the person of Tojah is taking note

Weldone Sir
You're doing well

dckng16:
Getting a vehicle on loan in today's economy, that idea is not so good because you will have to work your ass off to repay the loan. Petrol price is very high and Bolt fare doesn't commensurate with it except when there is surge. Fare is low, you will spend a lot of fuel and do so many trips before you can make a reasonable profit per day.

If there are no option of getting a Car other than loan, I will advice you go for a car loan between 2 to 3 miilion naira. It would be easier for you to repay on time. Maximum of 2years is enough to repay and the car wont suffer depreciation.

Brand new and Tokunbo Cars are very expensive, grade A sound Nigerian used cars on loan would make sense.

As per how you can juggle work, family and ehailing (driving) together, talking from my own experience.

I will suggest you drive on weekends, Friday night, Saturday and Sunday are the days to make good money. These 3 days can fetch you 60k to 100k after expenses depending on how long you can work. In a month that should be around 240k to 400k.

This is the best time to drive Uber for someone who is busy weekdays with job or other business

Friday from 7pm -12am N15,000 to N20,000 profit

Saturday From 5am - 10pm N20,000 to N40,000 profit

Sunday 5am - 10pm N25,000 to N45,000 profit


Total of these 3 days are usually between 60k to 100k in a week, you can give it a shot



Good luck !

The way some people dish out hypothesis advise they haven't even theorized or practice baffles me.

Mondays to Fridays 6am to 8pm both traffic and all.

Fridays through Sundays he should work 60hrs or more

Oga na robot you dey advise abi?

You that is giving this advice, what's your work or daily routine? Have you given this a try for just 1 month b4?

Do you have a family?
Are you married?
Do you have kids?
Do you have an idea what it takes to run a family? If you dint know ask Conner his father was a banker who never had time for them.

You people will just carry your phone and type anything that comes into your head all in the name of advice.

I don't get it
