As funny as this sounds, you're right, boss.
I've shared the link of this platform to him since last year December, but he's too lazy to register. Him said him no get time. Smiles.
Much respect, boss.

sammiejr:
Good evening guys,

Please can I use "Abro Automatic transmission fluid" as power steering fluid. Just noticed mine is totally empty and my steering was making a noise.

My mechanic recommended it but I'm still sceptical.

My Car is a corolla 2006

Thanks

Transmission fluid for power steering
Go to those guys selling fluid and tell them you want to buy power steering oil for your Corolla.
The emptiness is a sign of leakage, check the hose for a cut, buy another one and replace it before putting the oil.
Note: na pressure hose it must be oooh.
Much respect, boss.

Good evening, house.
A padi using Corolla for the hustle said his gear always refuses to engage immediately when put in drive, until he matches and holds on throttle for like 10 secs before the gear picks.
According to him, this always happens when he's set to leave house in the morning.
I don forget to put it here since last 2 weeks he told me, na today him reminded me because he plans servicing the gear tomorrow and he also wants to know the best gear oil to use.
He doesn't want to take his mechanic recommendations yet. Smiles.
His Corolla is 03.
Much respect, bosses.

MrCarter577:
Legend wey no fit gross above 20k per day? That one na learner, no be legend

Smiles.
Person wey dey gross max of 20k daily shows that he's just driving part time.
Much respect, baba.

MrCarter577:
Firstly, are you a newbie? Why have you not grossed above 20k in a single day? What type of trips are you accepting?

Lol.

He will school a lot of us on the hustle, so, no think say him need any advice or motivation, baba.
Na only update him just updated us.
Much respect, boss.

ThatIgboBoy:
This is a truthful summary of what most e-hailing drivers face. You can't come here claiming u made millions without your vehicle suffering for it. If other drivers were as concise as this, it will enable people know how profitable the business is. But if you just tell people the millions you make without the challenges and setbacks you go through, there will still be doubters.

Smiles.
Na you go tell us say this is what you want to read.
That brother can't tell me he used 130k fuel to make such money. He must have been driving to work or other places with the fuel.
His highest gross was even 20k. That should tell that he has been driving on bolt on a lighter level while going to do some other work.
See the amount he made in a month, shey you self no suppose know say he just dey cruise drive ni?
Much respect, boss.

davit:
Jf you are not on Bolt with at least 1.7 surge, don't take trips to Sangotedo axis. Else, sorry is your case.

Abeg wetin dey sup for Sangotedo?
I checked the traffic condition there now, omoh, my mouth sealed.
Much respect, boss.

Masterkleenlaun:
Make somebody tell bolt make Dem reduce their commission o...pple don dy wise o

Much respect, boss.

YeyeGbami:
Damn! I just did o. You’re right bro

Much respect, boss.

pope191:

Much respect, boss.

As we finished the ileya prayer in the morning, everybody don dey go, na so I dey hear gbagaun from my back (bolt alert).
I was forced to approach this brother:
Me; brother, today is sallah day, you suppose dey house dey relax and enjoy yourself nahh.

The brother: (smiles), even the order self na to Ikorodu, I no want go to Ikorodu.

So, he ignored the order.

Before we stepped out of the praying ground, another gbagaun enter him phone.

I was just laughing. I be like, so, some drivers no like resting and enjoyment? At least for this sallah day as a Muslim. Omoh, e funny me.

As I dey like this, I don tell my chairman say na till next week I go resume. I'm taking the car to him this evening for some resting. He was surprised that I want to take a whole week off driving.
Abeg, make person rest jare.
Much respect, bosses.

dapotemi:
Yea that's it ....they ask me to complete my profile b4 I can take ride, and na only hackney permit remain..I later had a chat with their agent and she confirms it

I've never been requested of Hackney since I been using indrive. I Didn't even know they had a space for it self.
It is well.

Duplik8t77:
my oga. Yes boss. Started August last year. How you dey boss man?

I dey, baba.
You already a legend be that.
Much respect, boss man.

Duplik8t77:

Boss of life.
I greet you oh.
Been awhile. You don join the hustle?
Much respect, boss.

dapotemi:
Abeg who get sure plug for hackney permit and the cost...indriver block me for it.

Indrive blocked you for Hackney permit?
Hope no be for something else, boss?
Much respect, baba.

pope191:

Welz:
I see am too, I just dey laugh

Wallahi, it was a serious drama yesterday. 😁
Those guys made me ignore rides wey I suppose pick.
Much respect, baba.

XGhost:
It is not profitable bro. Last week I made the mistake of accepting a trip to crown sangotedo. Ordinarily I've long stopped going beyond Jakande unless I'm going home but I thought, Sunday, and i checked map before accepting, it said 1hr14 which was great considering I was going from the mainland (Airport Road). Na so map de update me, traffic is getting worse, small time again traffic is getting worse. Trip ended up being just short of 3 hours. Almost 2 hours from LBS to United Estate. Me and the rider wan mad.
Ended trip 11k, thankfully the rider tipped an extra 4k for the traffic and music.
Even if in 3hrs what I make is that same 11k doing regular trips, i won't use as much fuel as I did for that 1 trip.

Shebi na bolt you used.
Imagine an indrive driver come put head in that traffic on a fixed price.
This is why I don't joke with traffic monitoring. Before I step out, I always check traffic conditions on both mainland and island. That's how I decide on which trips I take.
At every completed ride, I park and go on and check all traffic conditions on both lands. I don't joke with my monitoring at all.
That's why I relax more, cos if I see everywhere red, I go just park and be playing candy Crush on my phone until I see say traffic don reduce.
Omoh, traffic is a killer of this hustle. Inside life.
Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
So all d Indrive requests to Ojodu-Berger, Magodo Phase 1, Isheri North, Opic what has been happening to them? Bro, drivers are picking and going. Some don't have a choice.
I took that trip because I had to drop something at home and continue my work. I also wanted to check if it is profitable if u stay in traffic with the new price. U know we are still establishing new facts on that based on d changes. If I didn't take that trip, my mind for no rest, as I would have been calculating how much I would have made and what I have lost. I was glad I still proved to myself that entering bad traffic is still not an option no matter how enticing that money may be. U will still make that amount or more with less flogging of the car if u just go back n forth a no traffic zone.
It would have been more than 3hrs if I didn't bypass from Ojota bridge, entered Oregun, down to shoprite, connect CIPM, forward to 1st gate, entered omole phase 2 back gate, burst out in main gate, U turn at road safety, entered the street after Bovas, exit the back gate and used inside ojodu to reach Berger.

I said indrive drivers would never pick a ride to Ojodu Berger, not sufferheads. Any indrive that picks Berger ride is a sufferhead.
Seriously, if by mistake, a driver picks to Berger and ends up spending 4hrs inside traffic, dem no born am well make him try am again.
Imagine a legend self had to be taking corner-coner and possible shortcuts and still ended up spending 3hrs inside traffic, some indrive drivers don't know road connections, they would follow anything map says or even ignore the signs and put head inside Berger traffic that says 1hr traffic ahead, thinking it's going to be a perfect 1hr true-true 😁.
I remember when Olowora was a sweet positioning area for me, God himself go send thunder on my head if I take trip to Berger.
Ikosi, magodo-CMD, I no dey near any order going there even if the price is sweet. Damn! Who would I report myself to if I pick them?
The hike in fuel price alone is enough to make a dumb driver wise up.
Yesterday, I was at Wole Olateju crescent (lekki phase1) relaxing, and indrive drivers started posting disses at one another on passengers' page . I was just laughing. Dem no dey telly person.
Drivers that picked rides to Berger yesterday will never dare make such mistake again, believe me.
Much respect, boss.

Pearl1910:
Avoid serious traffic as much as u can, this new price isn't so favourable on time wasted in traffic.
I just wasted 3hours from Lekki to Berger (it would have been more but that's because I know my way around alausa, omole and ojodu) trip ended 10k. For every extra hour in traffic ur fare increases only by 1,200
Meanwhile I was steadily cresting 6k per hour before that trip.
As soon as I dropped the person I got another trip to Ogudu, 4,700. From Ogudu I got VI, 5k another 10k but in 1hour.
I repeat avoid serious traffic, except there is surge. don't come and b crying that u used 30k fuel to do 50k work. As it stands sef short short trips now makes sense cos of the minimum fare. So use your number 6 well.
Cheers!!!!

It's no news that Ojodu Berger and its environs have been a dead area for some months now and I don't think any indrive driver would put head there. I've been studying the traffic that goes to Berger on daily lately, just to imagine what people been going through.
I can imagine 3hrs inside traffic.
They need to hasten up the ongoing work there, abeg.
People are really going through a lot in that area.
I can't imagine me living in that axis in this period.
It is well.
Much respect, boss.

One thing these drivers that are complaining don't understand is that, if other drivers don't pick useless trips, the good trips won't come to them that are complaining.
Perhaps they're frustrated that no passenger was picking their higher bid.
Me I won't advise any driver to not pick useless trips, or to not bid higher for passengers.
Make dem continue. Smiles.

These people are flooding indrive passengers' page.
If drivers like make dem dey pick 2k for 1hr rides, it's their own problem nah.
Why these guys dey make fake requests is not actually clear to me; to vent your frustration? LoL.
These ones are learners.
My problem with them is that they are just flooding the page.
Make I dey watch their drama from here.

pope191:
Last week Friday by this time I came out to see if I can do 15k and back home by 11pm. So I zero down on island 6500 and got back to yaba 3500. 10k down 5k to go. Got 3k to Cubana. 10:30pm. I was getting Berger for 3k, but seeing the traffic? Fear won't let me. I kept updating till 1am, nothing nothing... that was how Pope slept inside the car. No b me go enter that traffic at 488/ L

Saturday morning, I say make I go house nah, inside car sleep and bed are two wide margin. Pick a trip going to Magodo 1 for 3800. I use express, no way, turn to Amara Olu and spent 2 hours between there to second gate. Rider gave me option of 2500 or we continue the ride. Smh I better pick this option and let her go. Gently find my way to Ogba from wemco road. Bath, eat and took nap at a friends place. Enter road again as target is in view. Saturday night I was around Magodo phase 2 around 11pm, set destination as I accept my fate of passing the night again inside the car. 2 days on the row

That was how request beeped. Going to Magodo phase 1 from phase 2. As much as I long to go home. Me to rider, Oga! You are mean ooo, are you asking me to go enter that Berger traffic, haba! Rider goes like pls, don't worry I'll give you 5k swallow spit hmm! 5k? Haaaa! The traffic, ohk, no wahala, lemmi just try.

Got to rider, study map well and noticed from Allen to wemco or Ogba route gets free with time, while the express is always on lock 24/7. I just use Allen to connect wemco, from wemco use alternative route straight for those that understand to Berger round about. Rider was happy with extra 2k thank u.


The thing about that route now is one have to wait till 12 or 1am. Home now with the tots of going out at night, but when I tot of what I went through last week and the routes when I check the map from Yaba to berger. Nah! I ain't doing that sh*t today. Damn! How did I get into this from the person that hang out once in awhile to workaholic. Even when I try to rest, all my head will be banging like request in hitting me. Sudden turuturu will sound like rider just cancel trip on me

I dedicate Cheerfulgiver to ya'll. I was just seeing guys popping into Cubana last Friday. Won't be a bad idea if I was that guy hopping out of that Benz with that Monalisa. E no good make suffer head master person we move on 50k target tomorrow sha.

Chai!
See what a man been going through. Inside life.
This your epistle is really filled with comics

Much respect, boss.

The have already started patching some damages roads/potholes. Those driving should have seen their work on some areas.
They should sha try and cover all necessary areas. Kudos to them.

Btw, see traffic.
People living in Ojodu and beyond, accept my sympathy.
@pope191, how your neighbors dey cope in Ojodu Berger?
You dey see the traffic at the moment?
Jibowu all the way down to Ojota self don pack red 🔴.

Wahala.

Portlouis:
