Jaysharp: Good evening my ogas Please who has experienced this and what was the solution: This evening I start my car and noticed the dashboard light didn't come up I also rev the car and speedometer didn't move as well. Pointer and check engine light work everywhere light doesn't come up. For the speedometer that is stagnant - consult with your rewire. For the dashboard light that doesn't come up - check if you have not dimmed the light by mistakenly rolling down the dimming switch. Much respect, sir.

HelenaWills: I've found myself using the bolded route lately just kind of farther and slower but it's worth it sha. Hopefully, our government will find a solution to that trap of a road. Funnily enough, I've never seen any form of accident there before sha. Much respect, sir. @the bold - for taking that longer route, that mean say you really take am serious.  Using the U-turn at that 7up-emergency is not hard, though. But I understand you very well. Btw, Nigerian government is an ignorant one, dem no fit think outside the box to fix a critical situation like that. Is it this government wey go do road finish and ignore fixing street lights?  It is well. |

HelenaWills: I know this is unrelated but please how do people who drive in Lagos cross from CMD road to Ziatech road (7 UP) or maybe head straight to Maryland or anywhere beyond? That U turn scares the hell out of me everytime. Unfortunately, that's the only point. Except from CMD road, just head straight to Otedola bridge and make your u-turn there to link Dr. Nurudeen Olowopopo way and link to the expressway, or link Mobolaji Johnson Avenue to your way to Ziatech Road - This is the alternative, but a long journey. The choice is yours. Much respect, baba. |

spyder880: When cement was N500, a bag of rice was less than N1,500 naira. If they lower rents, will rice sellers lower prices from N130,000 so they can afford to buy food cheaper? Boss, if increasing the rent outrageously and 'inconsiderably' is ONLY what puts food on the table for them, that means we just dey start be that. Rent would be reviewed every year? If the house collapsed, the owner go commit suicide be that. May God help us in this country. Much respect, sir. |

It is understandable for newly built houses (though, not justified), but what about those who built their houses when cement was N500?  We're really doing ourselves in this country. It is well. |

Guys, be alert out there. Don't carry multiple guys at midnight. This has been stressed more than often. Whether Eko hotel or Shrine, whether Lekki or Agege, dont carry more than 1 guy when u are driving at midnight. Don't be tempted by the fare or feel u have wasted fuel driving to d pickup. If u arrive and see they are more than 1. Be bold and tell them "sorry I can't carry more than 1 guy at this time because of my safety" Be alert, don't pick additional people on your way and even if it's one person, don't stop in a lonely place for him to pee or something .
The evil ones will not see us. We will not be unfortunate. You will not be a victim. Whichever one of the apps he used last, the company should provide the details of the rider who perpetrated this evil act to the right security agency. They must have, and provide the rider's details. May his soul RIP. 🤦♂ |

WareLogMan: Pls don't You wake up early mornings by 5a.m to catch up with few trips before resuming by 8a.m after after closing of business run few trips till 10pm
Then go full day on weekends. Don't drop your 9.5 for e_hailing. E_hailing is not always rossy. @bold - fatigue in summary. What if the nature of his 9-5 is strenuous already? He should just stick to weekend (sat - sun) alone. Abi what do you think? And I'm somehow sure say if that uncle has a taste of two weekends hustle with e-hailing, he go make decision ASAP.

The country is messed up and expensive and guys need more streams of income, or any means to proliferate one's financial strength, as long as it is legal. You go wonder say even some Keke napep riders dey make more money than many salary earners? In this current Nigeria economy, we all know say some salary works must be dumped without thinking twice.

66forlife: Pls what do you guys think of 2014 Elantra for this business I am thinking of giving up my 9-5 to start next month Before the month ends, could you try and sample the hustle on weekends alone (Saturday & Sunday)? Do it for the remainder of this month's weekends to get the grip of the hustle, then make your decision thereafter. I'm sure your salary isn't 'salarying' is the reason you're looking for a better alternative. And yeah, e-hailing is a good option, too. Elentra '14 can be used and fuel efficiency is same as corolla, so, it's a goal for you (hope you're the owner sha). Much respect, sir. |

PHEEEMMMY: Hello everyone, I need your honest advice.
I’m 39, currently working as a manager at a private cleaning company (the company cleans banks etc), but the pay is bad—₦100K per month for a master’s holder. I work Monday till Saturday and I barely have any time for any other thing. The job is killing me. I’ve decided it’s time to do something for myself, and I’m looking at joining the ride-hailing business (Uber, Bolt, Indrive, Taxify) in Lagos.
I plan to buy a car in the ₦3M-₦4M range with money from friends and family. But before I take that step, I want to hear from you, the experts. If I were your brother, what would you honestly tell me?
-Is this a smart move? -What kind of car should I go for in this budget? -What are the biggest challenges I should expect? -Can I make decent money, or is it just stress?
I respect your experience, so I want to hear the truth—good or bad. Thanks in advance for your advice! I was receiving the same amount as yours when I was working for salary, but today, I make more than my salary in a week. As long as you are the car owner, there's no way you won't have a NET of over 100k in a week. There's no way (speaking for Lagos). My brother, this is 2025, 100k a month is a total bullcrap. Take the money and get yourself a good car with 4plugs (2.4Ltr engine downward), and come and see the difference. Anyone receiving less than 400k salary a month is not in my league. This is not boasting, it is reality. Get a car. Get your ass into the hustle and see what's there. Much respect, boss. |

Omoapena: To be honest, the price isn't different from danfo price, divide that trip amount by people you carried and it will be 1k each, wouldn't they spend that 1k each by entering danfo to their destination...
I won't be surprised if people at the bus stop will start coming together to book ride and be dropping at each bus stop... Economizing the economy.  Much respect, boss.

I heard they're even done with the Suzuki, that they're going to be dealing with another brand. I think maybe because of the outrageous price.
