Good day,My name is Alfred George,i just registered as a uber driver and I need anyone who can assist in getting me a car on higher purchase. I can paydown 400,000 as part of my own contribution.I will be waiting to hear from you.Thanks

A colleague driver on told me that if I am to use Taxify then I should switch-on my Mafia mode. Criminals patronize Taxify more so be tough. I have a weapon in my car, by the driver's side just in case. I had almost been strangled, thank God for creating confusion that caused my escape that night.

In this business you have to set ur rules.

1. If on the 1st approach the person sounds rude, I bcom careful.
2. If group of men looking irresponsible, I make car excuse or emergency.
3. I arrive at ur place and u take more time than necessary- customer no show(cancel).
4.We are on a trip and u start talking funny, police station case.
5. I don't feel comfortable with u as a rider? Get out of my car.

Even if Uber or Taxify wants to make my picking a rider a do or die affair. I have the right to choose life. Nigeria is not America, the harsh economy and the evil in the black Man's mind is inconceivable. U need to look at the faces and hear what comes off the mouth of some riders it shows desperation and frustration.

Why after taking 12mins to locate you in your pigeonhole with terrible roads and wait for additional 10mins before getting onboard, you still have the guts to talk down on me and rate me low?

My dear Nigeria is not America, so set your rules to survive or you'll be eaten.

I have been following this thread for a while now, but i don't contribute. However, i feel it is imperative to comment now because there are some misconceptions going around. People have been abusing Romeo for sometime now and i think people are being unfair. Uber is still profitable, but it requires smartness and wisdom to make money. I have attached my last week earnings to prove my point(Note that i didn't include my offline trips, and also i didnt work on Sundays as i use Sundays to rest). I have posted some guidelines below to help you increase your earnings)

1. Try to work on the Island from around 4am to 12noon(Infact if possible, work majorly on the Island because of the Surge). There is almost always surge around the Lekki axis. Use your destination trip to get there. If a rider takes you away from the Island, use the destination trip to take you back.

2. If your rider is going to an area where Uber does not operate e.g Ikorodu, Badagry, Ibeju Lekki. Politely ask that they do the trip offline. If they refuse cancel the trip

3. Immediately you get a request, call the rider and ask where they are going to. If the distance they are going is shorter than the distance it will take you to pick them up, cancel immediately

4. Related to the point above, if you are in a surge area and you receive a request out of the surge area, cancel immediately

5. If a rider tells you that you will have to wait for him/her to buy or pick up something, politely ask how long. If you have to wait for a rider for more than 15mins, politely explain to them that Uber does not pay you for waiting. If you have a nice attitude, they will most likely pay you more than the fare. If they insist on not giving you extra and they are rude about it, then gently tell them that you will give them 20mins, if they are not back by then, end the trip and ask Uber for your money. They will pay you back (Note tha this will probably affect your rating so don't do this often)

6. Target long trips especially during surge. Uber does not allow you know where a rider is going, but you can time yourself to receive long trips. For example, if you go to VI/Lekki area area from 4.30am to 6am, you will almost always receive an airport trip during surge time.

7. When it is raining, make sure you are on the road. There is always surge when it rains

8. Take advantage of Uber promotions. Try to always drive in areas and around the time that will allow you take advantage for Uber promotions. if you need to rearrange your working hours to make it happen for that week, then do it. For instance last week Uber promotions was from 12noon to 4am. I made sure that i was working around that time, so unless there was surge before 12 noon i didnt work

9. Be nice to your riders and engage them in meaningful conversations if you can, you will get good tips if you do

10. Finally, maximise Fri- Mon. Those are the peak days on Uber. People do long trips then, and there is increased demand.

If you follow the above, you will make enough money to make you comfortable. Hope this helps someone

I Think I am the unluckiest person when it comes to betting. The numbers of ''cut 1'' i've gotten in my history, I don't think any other person has come close. This happened recently.

I had previously stopped gambling because of this. I am a very unlucky person, at a time when i have urgent needs to be solved. Now, If it happens that i still get a cut 1 today, I make bold to say I will stop and will begin a seclusion period.

You all should understand that lots of people changed their minds based on personal security not because of Olamide not filling the stadium. Better to be safe than sorry.
