pope191:
They closed the ascending from surulere the last time I use the bridge. Since I don’t know what happeningt there

Alright, baba.

Thanks.

Welz:
you don turn pope to lagos state commissioner for works

Smiles.
Na because him dey enter surulere very well, so I know say him go get info about the bridge.
Apart from that, he always helps with info if you ask him.
He's very helpful.

Much respect, boss.

obinoral1179:
how far when are we mobilising for the protest

I saw it as well.
What else do we want the E-hailing companies to do?
They have increased fare prices to align with the subsidy removal nah.
Abi wetin remain make dem do for us?
Though it's not enough, but except we want them to suffocate riders with over-hiked fare prices.

Much respect, baba.

pope191:
Well said boss. His negative mindset and at the same time trying to be everything won’t do much. One thing I learnt again is, it is hard to motive who is not willing. At no point will our energy match, we all can’t sleep or wake at the same time. So apparently our output can never be the same.

Good afternoon, boss.
How about the Apongbon/Eko bridge?
Dem don close 'em for the repair?

Much respect, baba.

SHOOPSYN:
@Tojah, we need to do something about our Pope191. Seems Felicity001 has anointed him with lengthy write ups. @Baz001, I wish someone can help us deal with you on this thread. I have laughed so hard .
@Glithronix, if I hear you say you are new bee for here again, I go hit your bumper from here. Much respect Bosses! What a thread

I be newbie. Oya come and beat me. I dey house.

konkoabove:
Ha! Even you Glithronix. You just confirmed Pope's curiosity with the blue light pimping

Swear say you no dey transport those daughters of Jezebel, too?
Everything you see me talk, na una teach me for here.
Na all of us be ash-her-wo.

Much respect, baba.

IFSHR:
And we have truck and trailer drivers here I guess.....

And who said driving is not a skill....I was only pointing you to the economics of demand and supply when it comes to skills...even some educational given certificate demand is low compared to others....

The bottom line is what dapotemi advised is very useful and yet you were still looking for a hole...

Depends on the kind of hole everybody dey look for, sir.

Omoapena:
It’s doable but you will hate the process and something might even go wrong while removing the dashboard…

Thanks, boss.

pope191:
I don laught tire like this. Blue light inside your car? Ashawo don deh enter your eyes abi

No offense, just thinking out loud

No be my fault, na shayo| na all of us be ashawo.
I mean something like this picture below.
But I don cancel the thought as @Omoapena don tell me wetin I wan hear.

Much respect, baba.

Is it doable for someone to change the entire displaying light colour inside a car?
I mean, the dashboard light + time $ radio light, from green to some attractive color?
preferably a blue or orange color display light inside this car.

Just want something fancy and attractive.

pope191:
Lol… you didn’t mention lateness. Bolt has harsh penalty, why I said till indrive gain ground. Wetin indrive show me for January, they almost turn me to mumu. Yastiku go unblock me mistikatu go block me. Like they keep doing the block and unblock for what I don’t even know. I had to drop the account for months. Just signed in one day to see I can use it.

Some people don’t like Indrive till today, they feel they are porous and will rather take Bolt. I’ve used Bolt well for the past few weeks and I can tell you margin between riders. Indrive riders no deh even dash money, but you will see enough take me back riders on Bolt, so your chances of doing offline is much. Regardless Indrive is still better, that Bolt commission can suck blood.

Double resperk!

Maybe dem see you as customer dada ni.
Na true sha. Consistent lateness dey among which is the only thing I hate about indrive.
Before, drivers used to have the choice of choosing time to arrive PU point, but since they fixed the time, I hate that part.
Guess that's why they will sometimes add extra 1mins to your time of arrival.
For instance, if driving to pick the rider is 4mins, indrive will add 1 mins for you as grace, the time will start counting down from 5mins.
Well, na to keep up be the koko.
God no go shame us. ✊

pope191:
I have said it here that Indrive will be worst than Bolt if they gain ground. They have use my eyes to see Shege. Block without telling you. If you like mail from now to forever they won’t reply. I start to fear them when they remove my 4500 from my account. I want to believe the owner is not aware of all these sha. But once someone cancel without you calling them, complain immediately if they remove commission from such trip.

Roberto Popedinho, this is coming from you?
Ahhhh, I think say you don already become jagaban in using indrive before ni ooh.
*Indrive won't block a driver without any notification.
Consistent cancellation is the major reason indrive will block a driver in which you must have been warned severally before action is taken on your cancellation.
*who say indrive never gain ground already? Talk about Uber, Bolt... The next is indrive.
Indrive penalty vs bolt's own, which one is harsher?
Abi, make we all move back to bolt only?
Nahhh. Make all of una leave indrive for us.
Indrive is very useless.

Much respect, boss.

ReadaDream:
Bro forget this line of thought. Indrive is a crook now. It's been happening.

Yesterday, I didn't call the rider, just chat and she called me herself, halfway to her. Indrive deducted commission as soon as I got to the pickup, same time the stup.i.d girl canceled.

They didn't add it to refund tab. I've been sending mail since yesterday, no response.

They did same twice during sallah, I got it back after series of mail. I'll surely get this 600 back!

Well, I won't say you're not right.
I've experienced it like 2 times when I was new to indrive. I knew it was me still learning the scope of how indrive works.
This una experience nowadays, I've never experienced am lately sha.
Btw, all of dem are crooks.
It is well.

Much respect, boss.

dapotemi:
LOL, further to this I also notice something.. Usually I used btw 4k to 6k as commission weekly but at a time I notice I was entering 7 to 8k so I decided to pay more attention..Mehn those guys na thief..I accept a ride, called rider twice but did not pick and I cancel..I did not move an inch..Commission deducted, maybe because I called rider but the funny thing is I could not find the trip details...Like I wanted to write to support but I no see all the info about the trip...now I know how my money dey vanish, atleast let me see the trip details nau so I know where the commission enter but nope..and because I cancelled alot, indriver just open office for my head.

Na you did it wrongly as I've once said here.
If you accept a ride on indrive, don't call the passenger. Just send them a message on the app and drive to pick up. If the passenger cancels before you get to the PU, you will get notified and money will be added to your refund purse.
Mistake some drivers always make is that, they will call passenger before they even start moving and they will cancel if passenger no pick their calls. In such case, indrive will take your money.
Best to do is, don't call passenger. Just send message.
The only time you can call passenger is when you don click arrive at the PU point. If any cancellation should happen after waiting for 5mins, you will get your money in your refund purse.
Note: if you message some passengers, dey no go reply but will call you by themselves, once they call you with a number, na the number make you call from your phone dial pad. Don't call from the app link.

Much respect, baba.

ReadaDream:
She go get belle today. That's all I have to tell you.

I'm a saint.

Much respect, boss.

boundlex:
If I’m you, I’ll sleep till 8. Evening work they sweet.

ReadaDream:
Finally..

Una just dey swallow money left and right.
E go reach 1/2pm before I roll out.
Feeling like make I just sleep self cos this weather is so calmly as rain don toast the atmosphere for us.

Much respect, boss.

boundlex:

Make him enjoy his choice in peace now.
My hands no dey there, abeg.
BTW, na for how long we go wait to be seeing Pope back naahh, boss?
Some of us dey miss that name already.

Much respect, baba.

ReadaDream:
This is where your instinct and discretion comes to play.

Know your environment. You can't pick someone from an estate with call to access and not feel some sort of safety. What about the riders destination? Is the rider taking you from a safe location to an unsafe route. E.g VI to Baracuda Beach at 1am.. what are you going to do there?

Majority of drivers death in this hustle are avoidable. Why pick a trip from Shrine to Abule egba? The other guy that got killed in Mushin at 4am, what is he looking for there?

If you have not done ehailing consistently during the day for at least months, you don't have any business working at night. At a glance, you must be able to figure out where your rider is and where the rider is going.

Like one of my guys who recently got a Corolla. I enrolled him in indrive and after he worked few days, the next thing him go do overnight work.
I mean, working from evening till the following morning.
Him come get mind tell me say him worked overnight and made a lot of sales and it was all easy drive throughout the night as roads are always deserted.
I just sharperly called him wife together with him say, I want him to delete the indrive app now now. I told both of dem say, from that day, I am ordering him to stop doing e-hailing. Na me show you de way to e-hailing, now I'm not involved again. Leave e-hailing now and delete this app.
I just vex comot for their house.
I have the audio recording of all our conversation that day as evidence for me.
I've removed myself already. If him like make him continue, I'm already a free man.
Make person no come put me for wahala.

boundlex:
Yea you are right, but I believe there’s something called understanding you clients. You can’t pick someone from kpmg around 5pm or their house and say they will hurt you. Most especially if it is just a lady. You pick 3 guys at the bus stop around 10pm, the red flags are obvious. I don’t like bus stop trips, I take extra attentiveness when I pick riders from such place.

So sad mehhnnn.
He probably was new to the hustle, cos an experienced driver should know that bus stop pickups are a red flag move at night.
Iyana oworo is a risky place to pick people cos many of those guys are armed thugs from oworonshoki, somolu/bariga, oshodi, etc.
Yesterday night wey I dey Louis Solomon close at VI around to 9pm, I was waiting for my last trip that will take me to mainland, I saw one and when I clicked to accept, I mistakenly picked one at Obalende underbridge and that one accepted me. I immediately cancel am straight. Though the money was good but hey, I don't pick anything Obalende. If you like, put 7k for a trip of 30mins, once I see say na bus stop you dey, or all these roundabouts, under bridges, anything that doesn't indicate street/road name/ location number, I no dey pick.
I always feel the urge to help people by giving them a free ride when I'm alone, but hey, God won't punish me if I close eyes and refuse to help. Human beings are wicked.
Imagine that man now, life just got wasted prematurely.

XGhost:
Should be better for us then

Much respect, baba.

boundlex:
Glitchronix your nightmare take note.

This one na morning-mare, bro.
Make we dey expect the return of traffic on 3MB be that.
Thanks for the update.
However, letter 'C' no dey my name.

Much respect, bossman.

Abeg, who don get called from this number?
I no kuku pick am oh. Scam ké?
Heheheheheeee

Bammzzie:
No shaking bro, I still pass there yesterday. Much respect

izzou:
[color=royalblue]For two weeks now, it has been open[/color]

Nice one. Na this assurance I need.

Thanks, bosses. 🙏

Dailyparrot:
In case if there's any report of a murder case at Ota, Police should know where to look.

The man na cruise him dey catch.
He is definitely a driver.
Him know say nobody go pick am.
That's one of the disadvantages of indrive. Anybody can easily register and be making nonsense requests up and down and he/she can easily escape by switching account anyhow.
I no know wetin dem dey gain in all this.

pope191:
They suppose don open em

Just need assurance that it's been open back.
Abeg any person don take the Apongbon/eko bridge this week?

pope191:
I think indrive is certified now. They keep asking for different permit

Indrive fit dey certified but a percentage of passengers on indrive are criminals/fake people who are just there to frustrate unsuspecting drivers.
One can confidently approach bolt's customer service with the assurance of getting solution, unlike indrive wey be say, na jagbajantis dem go dey yarn you.
I think that's the point in oga Pearl's comments.

Much respect, boss.

@pope191

Shey dem don open the eko bridge back?
Make person know before person pick ride abeg.

Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
Lolz...u want make VIO come ask me for operators licence. Olorun maje.

I told her to come to Akinsanya street that FRSC didn't open gate for me, she say I sound rude and cancelled. She requested like 5times more with a higher price. She is definitely VIO looking for who to catch.

You dodged a bullet.

Much respect, boss.

ReadaDream:
....fooling around.

Smiles.
Some people ehnnn.

Much respect, baba.

lanrexdo:
It is called sarcasm.
He collected her number. No be her number he go call before he pick her up?

He quoted current price.

Come end am with 3k price...

Person wey said him just dropped a lady at Chevy view estate from Gbagada for 3k...
It is well.

Much respect, boss.
