Yes but for the most part, no one will kidnap you driving in Lagos. Accidents are likely not going to be fatal. The risk of the rider snatching your vehicle is also lesser grin

"How can I repay the Lord
for his goodness to me?
The cup of salvation I will raise;
I will call on the Lord’s name.

My vows to the Lord I will fulfil
before all his people.
O precious in the eyes of the Lord
is the death of his faithful.

Your servant, Lord, your servant am I;
you have loosened my bonds.
A thanksgiving sacrifice I make:
I will call on the Lord’s name"


Brethren, there is power in the name of Jesus. Work hard and call on that name to change your life.

Occult people call on Satan and it works for them. Why won't Jesus, the holy spirit and God change your life when you call on their name?

Please call on that name Jesus always. It works. This is not magic but a pure manifestation of the trinitarian power of God, The Holy spirit and Jesus to liberate.

How I knew Jesus is real? Its unexplainable. God bless you all..
Oya change your moniker. Sebi u don happy now grin grin

I always think about it, anything few individuals is successful with, and naija people eye reach am, they always over saturate and slowly kill it off, no wonder most successful individuals, don't like to reveal their success formula.

Business naija people successfully over saturate:

Pure water business

Catering

Event planning

Private schools

E-hailing

P. O. S business

HipHop genre ( both talented and numerous untalented )

Na wa o!

Well, unfortunately for us in Nigeria, we are not a producing nation (except for the crude oil), for most part, we just process raw materials, so we can only hope to do business. And there's little a business can do for any country. That's why when there's a new development (as in business), a lot of people venture into it to earn a living. Quick question, the job/business/services you're doing/rendering, are you the first at it?

It's going to be my usual steel frame with a wood top. I will use Mesonia for this top because of it's striking grain.

E-hailing is not danfo mbok.

Danfo drive a dedicated route all the time
Danfo dont drive 12 hours stretch at a time
Danfo stop at every junction to pick and drop
Danfo don’t use Ac

I can go on and on but please manual is a NO NO fo e-hailing cos wish hand u want take dey operate phone and stick together.

Peace
I don't know why you guys keep on hammering about the phone usage. Do you press it all the time? Don't you have a mount for handfree usage? And still talking about danfo - have you ever tried to drive those buses before?
Let's leave danfo for a second. I traveled by road to Lagos from Kano, the driver that brought us just got back to Kano from Lagos - he just drove off from the arrival park to departure....a manual bus ooh. For those who are familiar with that journey, it takes about 15hrs for a very fast driver.
And people are here castigating manual vehicles as if manuals have not been in vogue and usage for a long time before the arrival of auto

But these your points are exactly what makes Danfo much more difficult when compared to using a car for e-hailing, whether auto or stick gear

Let us see... grin

Toyota Corolla Vs 8 Units of Bajaj Motorcycle

Unit price of Corolla - #2,200,000
Unit price of Bajaj - #285,000( 8 ) = #2,280,000

Weekly returns for Corolla - #30,000
Weekly return of Bajaj - #8000( 8 ) = #64000

In 10 months (in an ideal situation)

Corolla would have raised - #30000*4*10 = #1,200,000

8 Units of Bajaj would have raised - #64000*4*10 = #2,560,000

Conclusion:
The Toyota Corolla (Tokunboh) is a wrong tool for rental in ehailing.

Investing in Okada business is very risky, because if Lagos state Taskforce catch you? grin

Hmmm, its a serious something.

This sounds like Sadhguru's words.

Best way to solve a problem is to keep a distance fr9m the problem then you will see clearly.

Take for instance, how can one be so convince that the world is spherical or round in a way when big object sail and walk on it without haven to fall? Take a space jet out of earth then view it from the outside with an appreciable distance from it's top then you'd noticed/seen that truly the east is spherical or somehow round.

So @ cryptoclub2018, leave those thinking (though the spirituality of life it self can never be over emphasise) behind you and see how they disappear.

Peace be into you. May you not be mark for death in Jesus name. Amen!!!

No matter how much Jesus' name is used or His blood, what will be will be. Like a very sensible person has already said, be careful and watch out - na everything get explanation.
Remember Lazarus still died despite being raised from the dead by Jesus. My point is, do your part very well and don't always attach spirituality to things, especially ones like this that has explanation. If the car was at home, will those near miss happen?

Good evening house,

Please how do you handle such riders:

Rider book a ride and you get to PU, called rider to notify them you're here and you get "I'm coming".

10 mins later rider is still coming, only for rider to show after 10mins and they tell you can you move faster am running late or am in a haste.

Me: what have you been doing before you ordered the ride? You kept me waiting for more than 10mins and you're asking me to fly cos of your negligence?

This thing dey always pain me.

Please your opinion.

Tell her "Yes ma'am", then increase whatever speed you're on by - 20km/hr. If the music control is on the steering wheel, play music at a low volume and hum along.
Now, that's how you pour fire to a molten magma
wink

Here what a partner has to say?
Look, I think we need to start calling these kinds of investors what they are, Fools!
How can you entrust your business to people who are not on any traceable database undecided I believe that in those developed countries (that they live) have some forms of "paperwork" that people present for jobs, whether part-time or full-time as a kind of traceable proof or so. Then they come to a hunger-stricken country and expect them to be truthful when they have nothing on them or about them? That's being ridiculous!
When I was driving, owner went to my house, checked where I'd be parking the car (to know if its safe), he entered my house as confirmation that I lived there, also to have a guarantor in the house I live, and he's actually someone I'd known for about 2 months prior. You can't just trust people, it's foolish!

The lady recognised the driver? If she did, then why didn't she involve Bolt through the police to trace the driver's info? Calling and trapping those that called her to pay up for cheating is not a way to go.
And for the driver, if he truly did it, then he and his cohorts should be given 600... angry

Felicity0001:


I've been following this topic and I'm surprise you of all person can articulate things like this.

I once had an experience which I shared here last year how a military personnel and I had an issue along Oba-Akran, Ikeja. The rider i was with on that particular day was a 3rd party rider and after all the set and done I reported to Uber and Uber call me the next day to get more detail. Now, do you know that uber compensated me on that trip? Even with the 3k rider paid to me? I've deleted my uber app, else i would have shown you the reply uber sent base on the rider's(3rd party) aspect in terms of compensation.

According to what they sent me, they can't compensate the actual rider since it's a 3rd party ride, and also, the amount I collected from the rider they also can't justify the actual amount collected because they could only reachout to the owner of the account, though they called the owner of the account to confirm the accident and to know if every thing was fine.

So the thing is, driver's and riders are always held accountable for anything relating to any trip and not the 3rd party rider.

I don't understand where or how you bring in your okada analogy from, its really absurd, disrespectful and dishuman to how you compare e-hailing and okada in this regard.grin

As for packages, it is required of the driver to apply his wisdom but such a driver should understand that so long h/s has agreed to go on a trip be it a 1st or 3rd party ride, or a package he(driver) will be held accountable should he be find wanting.

So should any item be found on your car? what is expected of you as a driver is return it to the one that ordered the ride or drop it at the app company's office address then the person can come pick it up with the telephone number attached to the account as a means of identification. Otherwise, a sworn affidavit that that item belongs to h/h.

If this trip in question was to be an Uber trip I see no means the driver would have been able to contact the rider after the trip as ended unless he can trace the number that called him as at the time of pickup which is not even the due process and that is if and only if there was a phone conversation. The due process is to contact uber or Bolt stating "rider forgot and item". Then driver will be contact on the next step to take.

As a matter of fact drivers are prohibited from contacting riders after trips have ended. If there's anything? Contact your partner which could either be uber or bolt.

Business / Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by GforGee: 9:08pm On Jan 19, 2021
I disagree with you. The man ordered the ride. He paid for it. Whoever rode it is not the driver's client. What if he was asked to deliver something, will the "something" be his client? And remember, the man can report to Uber/Bolt or whatever, the ladies can't.
Duke111:


For me i think d ladies are your client not the man cos truthfully it’s the ladies u carried not the man. Since u have already called the man u just have to return it to d man. But i feel why u called the man first was maybe u heard the ladies discussing about the loot and you were not ok with it.
