I drove 5mins to pick up a rider and after 3 mins he came out and said he's sorry but he won't be going anymore and then gave me 1,500 for my troubles

I'm sure say na man. Abi?
Much respect, boss.

okey4reel:
Seems like riders are running away from using bolt these days cos of their fares, Nigerians too like free things, most people don port to Indrive and Rida, na wa

Not just passengers, drivers self don converge to Indrive and I could see it already.
Cheerfulgiver, I could feel the presence of your disciples on indrive.

Mad accident at iyana ifako heading towards ogudu.
2 trucks and a couple of cars.
Watch the traffic it has caused.

Pearl Bolt say make u come play football. From driving around to running around

😁😁😁

northbird:
If the Abuja guys finally team up with Ordinary president, and they eventually float their own app, then Bolt will understand true competition because they will lose drivers in their hundreds to the new app. The Abuja guys seem to have a better cohesion ..

.I mean wtf is wrong with Bolt , if I don't want to go to Mararaba or Nyanya or Karimo, is it by force... shouldn't I have control over the places I want to go to ?

Say no more, boss.
There's a reason for their existence.
Much respect, baba.

Welz:
this new rida app is nonsense, you won't even see the trip but you will receive notification of trip cancelled, all the trips there are 1500 or 2000. To log out na war. I entered indrive fear catch me, drivers no dey even allow trip land before them accept the ridiculous price. 2000 from ikoyi to ogudu? at 488 per litre? gilthronix how una dey do am ?

My question be say where did you see 2k from ikoyi to ogudu? Cos it can never happen on indrive that I use. it's not possible, sir. Maybe you were mixing them up.
However, no dey think say all the orders that are picked on indrive were actually picked based on the prices that the passengers put there, drivers are bidding higher, but I don't do bidding, anyways. If the price is crap, I ignore. If it's perfect for me, I pick.
Some indrive drivers no dey get patience, they want everything to happen rush-rush like say na bolt.
Sit in your car, feel relaxed and wait for good orders.
Some drivers will wait 20mins without any passenger picking their bids and the next thing dey do is start lamenting that no order.
Boss, if you are seeing annoying fare prices, ignore them and be chilling in your car, good orders go definitely show.
Much respect, boss.

Barbiturate:
Who else has been finding it hard to pay commission on Indrive via transfer? Since on Saturday. Reported to their support, but they are not useful. They want drivers to register their cards on their platform. No be me! I'd rather continue with Rida than register my card!

But na the card I don dey use from the beginning and no issue at all.
Why you come dey fear, baba?
You can even delete the card anytime you want.
Much respect, boss.

CHARLOE:
Very urgent pls! Vio arrested me, they said I need hackney permit to do bolt, I have lasdri, do I need hackney permit?

You told them you be bolt driver?
Since you've been arrested as a bolt driver (without the hackney permit), you gotta sort the charge, bro.
Inside life.

CheerfulGiver:
The price difference is less than 1200. Not a big deal

It is well. Everybody go survive.
Much respect, baba.

Be like say I go dey buy fuel down for the whole week now.
I'm tired of going to filling stations everyday. The thing don dey tire me.
I have 3 x 30L kegs. Be like I go start to dey fill dem up and fill my car, too.
Those will serve me for the whole week.
Seems this is what I'm switching to now.

Viking07:
NNPC is 537.

Inside life.
You drivers in Abuja should be more selective of passengers be that oh . I can't buy fuel @this price and be picking rides of 3k. Except if the trip comes @3k and driving to destination is 20mins or less.
Omoh, I feel for Abuja pilots oooh.
How una dey take cope upon say Abuja no get passengers like Lagos?
It is well, boss.

Viking07:
I go check later when I enter road.
Much respect boss. 😁

Okay, baba.

Btw, no plagiarism.

Viking07:
Fuel is now 548/ltr here in Abuja.

Cc: Bolt/Uber agents

E don happen. Inside life.
Abeg is there no NNPC filling station in Abuja ni?
If there is, how much is their pump price?
Much respect, boss.

mejai:
💯...

Please everyone let this argument die today. Make everyone choose what favours them. If u want to combine the two, good!

Let's share experience!!

Abi oooh.
Everybody should just maintain their champion abeg.
I just hope they would let the matter die like that, make motivations dey flow and encourage and educate us on how to run the hustle profitably.
Much respect, boss.

dapotemi:
I was out of Lagos on Wednesday. My flight was to Enugu, finished my assignment and later took a ride to AWKA, then to Onitsha. Yesterday I was at asaba and today am in warri. I'll be in bayelsa tomorrow and back to warri on Monday to connect a flight to Lagos.. I notice alot of improvement on road infrastructure to be honest and I give it PMB administration. Even the bad roads I notice where mostly road under construction..Lagos somehow is overrated and there is no much federal presence in terms of road construction..I did not see a single pothole from asaba to warri...
By the way, this trip will give me nothing less than 500k as add-on, after all expenses, with all the 'igbadun' that usually comes with official trips like this...Some of you have been so tortured in the labour market that when you hear salary job, you think we all have to wait till 31st to get 100k! I think that is the reason for all the bad mouth I see here but we can understand...To the new cat, I beg you, if you're a graduate, get a CAREER....Be patience, CLIMB the ladder...Let me ask you, what do you think an Uber driver will be after 10 years of driving? Still an Uber driver right? I don't want that for you! If you're JOBLESS now, then maybe you should drive but don't sleep on it, don't let anyone tells you it's the BEST for you! I beg you!

Good afternoon, boss.
Apologies for my late response.
Well, for any good or bad roads, the government will always answer for it, whether at state or federal level.

You see this salary work vs e-hailing driving, me I no want dey put mouth. Cos the chairman that always fires catapult at salary eaners has his target audience and those ones know themselves. There are lots of people who earn millions in salary and there are those whose your 500k add-on is their 12/11/10/9/8/7/6 or 5 months salary. It is not all of us that would have that kinda opportunity that earns you such amount on a trip assignment. That chairman had already described his target audience and definitely, his catapult won't hit every salary earner and I don't think people should have problem with him.
Shebi na salary work I been dey do before I switched, I knew what I was looking for and the difference is remarkable FOR ME.
I am business oriented, not in the salary career realm at all.
This that I'm doing at the moment, is not where I'm going. I want to achieve 2 things here, once I gat them, it's a goodbye to the hustle. My prayers be say make nothing hinder me.
That doesn't mean that people that have been doing it for that 10 years you said have nothing else they doing. I know 3 of my friends who are house owners already from this e-hailing hustle and if you see them, you would argue they are drivers. They're property agents now.
All the e-hailing voltrons we're seeing on this thread, by the time they leave many people behind, that's when we go realize say everybody gets plans.
Your point is well understood as to those who chose it as a career job without any planned exiting alternatives. Those ones ehhhn.
Much respect, boss.

Barbiturate:
It's worse when covered with flood. Passed there on Thursday night and unknowingly entered the ditch

Imagine.
The condition it is now is even worse and so annoying.
Much respect, baba.

YeyeGbami:
Lagos is overpopulated, the infrastructures can't hold. LASG go fix road tire!!!

The problem with the government is ignorance, which to me, is INTENTIONAL ignorance.
There should be a quick response team to all infrastructural defect in the state (don't think anyone exits).
The government that understands the nature of its state has no excuse to wait until all goes completely bad before the fix it.
That place started small until it became big nah.
They would ignore bad roads like they didn't see it when it was little that would require just minimum patching.
Make dem continue.
Much respect, boss.

I talk am.
Shey una see what that Bonny Camp roundabout don turn to?
Comming from Walter Carrington towards Bonny Camp (Ozumba Mbadiwe), una see wetin the road don turn to?
Make dem continue dey ignore roads. Until everything spoil finish before we go get sense in this country.
