[quote author=Drunice23 post=65589642][/quote]You are absolutely right.

hush15:
You do have a point but I am still of the opinion that the business is only good when you own and drive your vehicle largely becos something still comes in as surplus after expenses no matter how small.

However, if you are to deliver to someone, i really dont see any light at the end of the tunnel. All you can do is feed from hand to mouth with it and thats if you not a family man and the prudent one at that but saving is not sure.

In saner climes, people doing this business are very comfortable but in this part of the world, the business has been twisted and everyone is trying to take advantage of the already weak system ( honestly, thats so naija). If drivers are not manipulatimg the system, the riders are abusing the system. The e hailing companies are doing the both.

Riders should understand and appreciate the efforts of driver considering what they go through to provide the service. For the company, they make money off the drivers so they loose nothing and try to please you but its the drivers that gets ripped off. Afterall, how bad can a win win situation hurt!!!

Also, i use this medium to plead with drivers to ensure they give riders a good driving experience. Driving in Lagos is no joke with all the horrendous laws out there but whats worth doing is worth doing well. We. Must be tolerant and professional. Carrying dofferent people with different emotions and its hard work managing such but we are professionals and must be one always. Thats part of dignity in Labour. It doesnt make you any less important but rather more. Driving is an art and must be communicated professionally. Thats what makes us different bus all those bus drivers. Those ones are not of this world.

Neway, na my 2cents be that

Bros, your advise was cool but driving with Uber or Taxify or Oga-Taxi is not a worthwhile career in Nigeria because a critical review of the platforms revenue model shows that the drivers (especially partner-drivers) are being enslaved while the platform providers smile to the bank daily. It is advisable that partner-drivers should not spend more than three to six months on the platform especially if that is the only or major source of income to that partner. You earn the money in the short term (daily) but that money cant sustain your car maintenance in the medium and long term.

You are point as per all the users of uber, taxify and oga taxi.

At the Financial Times Africa Summit held in London on Monday, 9th October, 2017, the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, said “Nigeria’s 180 million people, over 50 million have no power,”. But part of the present administration’s effort is to diversify power sources in order to improve access and a programme of providing solar power in 20,000 homes in rural villages had started.

Osinbajo stated that the Federal Government invested N1.3tn in infrastructure in 2016, making it the largest capital spending in the country’s history; and the government was ready to increase the figure in the 2018 budget.

The minister of power, works and housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola has given assurance to the power sector operators as regard the privatisation that took placed in the sector in the last regime. He said “Cancellation of the exercise will only send a negative message to prospective investors in the country’s power sector. If we revoke it, investors will leave the country and would even tell others that Nigeria is not a reliable destination for investment.” This statement was said at the policy dialogue on the power sector, organised by the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI).


He also said the roles of the ministry are well set out in the Electric Power Sector Reform Act 2005, to which the privatisation of the power sector took place.

Not all about physical structures but the mental structures of graduates from the schools.

Boko Haram's ongoing insurgency in northern Nigeria has forced the closure of more than 57 per cent of schools in Borno state, leaving about 3 million children without an education as the school year begins, the United Nations Children's Fund said on Friday.

"Children in northeast Nigeria are living through so much horror," said Justin Forsyth, Unicef's deputy executive director at the end of a three-day visit to Maiduguri, the epicenter of the crisis in the northeast.

"In addition to devastating malnutrition, violence and an outbreak of cholera, the attacks on schools is in danger of creating a lost generation of children, threatening their and the country's future."
Banki, on the border with Cameroon, has been reduced to rubble. The continuing insecurity in the town of some 40,000 refugees means that women gathering firewood from the forest must be accompanied by soldiers, said Forsyth. Kids in Banki sit on floors in thatched buildings with broken blackboards and shards of chalk, he said.

"Even though the first task is to save children's lives from pneumonia, diarrhea and malnutrition, we also want to make sure children keep learning and get back to school," Forsyth told The Associated Press after visiting Banki Thursday. The border village is about 133 kilometers (83 miles) southeast of Maiduguri, the Borno state capital.

Some 10.5 million children are out of school throughout Nigeria, he said, but the insurgency has affected Borno state most acutely. Nearly 2,300 teachers have been killed in Nigeria's northeast since 2009 by Boko Haram, whose name in the local Hausa language has been loosely translated to mean "Western education is a sin." Nearly 1,400 schools have also been destroyed, said Unicef.
"Even in the midst of conflict we need to make sure that children keep learning. It helps them overcome trauma," he said, adding that many children there have been kidnapped and have experienced violence.
Two young boys told him about being kidnapped, watching people be killed and being forced to work for Boko Haram under threat of beatings and abuse.

"These boys are deeply traumatized. They are being supported to overcome that situation, and when asked what they most wanted, they both said to me they wanted to go to school," he said.
The extremists' eight-year insurgency has killed more than 20,000 people in the Lake Chad region, and displaced more than 2.3 million. Casualties have doubled in the past five months in Borno and Adamawa states because of increased suicide bombings, many carried out by young girls, Amnesty International has said.

"The use of children as human bombs — close to 100 so far this year — has sown a climate of mistrust among communities in the northeast," the UN agency says.

Show us proof that she is not submissive.
Chris, are you sure you are not a playboy?

I will confirm your allegation with Damilola tomorrow.
Take care.

Is this a joke ??

Husband and wife are one.
Your wife is your sister, mother, aunt, niece and daughter.
Your husband is your father, brother, uncle, cousin and son.
From a traditional point of view, no crime was committed.

Recession is to blame !

Wishing the husband and wife goodluck !

But, what makes this company reputable?
Who are the owners and what is their current staff strength ?

Just asking.

CR 7 is enjoying his money and life.
Evidence of working hard.
