Is this the reason for this dearth of trips I've been experiencing lately, today's really got me upset.

Hello boss...shey na you dey use Volvo?

Imagine, from January till now thread never count reach 50 pages, something that on a good year go don pass 200 pages at least . . . And you say thread no dey life support? 🙄

Make una no vex too much for me oh, it's just that I saw this coming and screamed my voice off key but una no gree listen so allow me GLOAT AND RUB-IT-IN as that's the only thing I see would make some wise ones here activate their hidden medulla power on time🔋

Abeg make una try dey post e hia, I am still praying for the life of this thread even if una no gree believe 🙏

Till next time

There is an appointed time for everything, a time to live and a time to die...lol... Besides, it's been ages i contributed my few cents on this platform, but oftentimes I try to go through the comments to see if it's still what it use to be, with the likes of king of meme BAZOO, the Volvo guy and many more, Felicity, Barbiturate and so on.

But I'm thinking of an idea. I don't believe e-hailing biz can be like in the past anymore, we all know the reasons, which ranges from exchange rate, currency devaluation, inflation, price of petrol and many more.

My idea is this, I love when people test the waters... this e-hailing association set up in time past, with the pioneer always on Naija info radio complaining about price fares at all times. How about those who are still active in this hustle, to form a group and approach the chairman of the presidential initiative on CNG, at their warehouse in ibafo Lagos state and have a discussion with him on how he could use his influence, either to give a discount on the cost or proffer a workable plan, that will favour the drivers. The e-hailing apps too are not excluded. I believe most of drivers discussion should be centered around this initiative.

Out of curiosity, have visited Mobil filling station at agidingbi to find out more about this CNG and hoping to visit the ibafo center as well in no distant time.

I'm impressed how a driver narrated how he bought N18,000 worth of CNG and drove from Lagos to Abuja (source AriseTV)

Please, let us start looking for ways to stay afloat in this dire times.

Thank you&God bless

Please, has anyone converted his car from gasoline to CNG? . Out of curiosity, I made enquiry at one of the mobil filling station in Lagos and I was told the least price for conversion is N800k, besides, how true is the information about the FG directing all commercial bus drivers to go and convert their buses free

Never say never Bro...
If its something u want, then build your Linkedin profile, rewrite ur CV, go to new buildings/structures, ask around, tell friends, church members and old colleagues. Go to offices and drop ur CV. And dont ignore strange calls/numbers. Recruiters still call for interviews without referrals or padi padi. Provided u r good at your profession, u might be lucky to get a job.
Save money, some govt jobs come with a price. When preparation meets opportunity na luck dem dey call am.

A few years from now, most foreign students will start attending universities in China for the same quality of education at a very low price.

They are already doing that, especially Nigerian graduates from the Eastern extraction

ValCon888:
The policy hasn't fully taken its toll and the universities are already going broke.

Since losing its colonies to independence, the UK has no "commonwealth" to subsidize its economy.

They thought Brexit was the answer, but it was only the beginning of their problems.

Now they're blaming migrants and cutting migration, not realizing migrants do the jobs the regular UK citizens won't touch.

. From time immemorial, i kept on asking myself this salient question: "what does United kingdom have as a resource, besides the human capital". I realized the country is structured on taxes, while they make their country a safe haven for looted funds on the other side. I know they have the technology to make Ships, cars, mining and I.T e.t.c wetin dey the country wey be say, if we dig ground we go comot something or if we plant this cash crop e go grow. I want an historian, please school me.

Thanks bros. I'm familiar with that route, but "night travel" this time around get as e be ó... With the spate of incessant kidnappings and banditry. If it were to be several years back, when I could do the dare devil...Ah not now anymore

ksmart027:

Didn't you watch the one that came on Facebook to apologise for wrongly calling a driver a kidnapper just because the had issue during the ride. Most of these riders can accuse you of anything just because of what he stated. I am not saying the driver is innocent though.

Ehn Ehn...ògá ò! I know a larger percentage of our clients are ladies, with òlósho and speedy-runz girls taking appreciable percentile, but with an unreserve apology, a whole lot of them are ..............(I don't really know what to call them). Although, I know the female gender are driven by emotions than reasoning, that's why we could witness a scenerio whereby wives will poison their husbands, and later regret such actions.
How on earth will someone accuse a fellow individual wrongly, not even of the most "prettiest things" (for lack of a better word) but rape. Rape&Murder are top of grave offenses and crime in the world.
We need to sensitize majority of our populace , particularly the youth, about public behavior and utterances, unfortunately the Government agencies saddled with such responsibilities is still sleeping, yet to be awake to their core responsibilities. It is well

donbrowser:


Don't believe most of the things you read there. If you get the true story, it might just be because the guy refused to go off route without compensation or he held them down to confirm transfer or even refused to help them buy things in traffic.

i do not believe all these allegations of yours, could have necessitated a passenger to wrongfully or falsely accuse an individual of rape, robbery and attempted killing. The tweep can't be so dumb to make such false accusations, taking into consideration it's impending consequences.

Urgent! Please, where can I get a N10k -N12k bus fare from Lagos to Abuja. Thanks

ovanda:
Na dem.

Emeks008:
My best and shortest route is ilesha - Iwaraja - efon alaye - erio - aramoko - ijero ekiti - ido ekiti - oye ekiti - iffe ijumu - kabba to obajana then head straight to lokoja. Lokoja straight to Abuja. Passing through Akure, Owo, akoko to ibilo, okene, Lokoja is a long route.

I wish you safe journey

Weldone bros. I be wan go Abuja hopefully next week Friday 23 February. Please, do you have an idea the most affordable price they collect, I might likely be leaving from express Berger long bridge axis...thanks

Welcomme:
Express rail service ke? Trust me, you can't spend less than one week if your destination is Kano to Lagos. From one breakdown to another. If it's not mechanical breakdown at mokwa, it will be electrical breakdown at kutiwenji. I used to be an active passenger. The last time I vowed not to take this train again was when I spent over a week from KD to Osogbo. It can be adventurous sometimes but time wasting. I remembered when our train spoilt at Minna, I had a serious coitus play on an abandoned train with one of their staff at Minna...I met more than 5 other people on the train that night doing same thing. Come hear different kind of sound tracks...

I pray they get past these hurdles by the time they commence full operation, because have started dreaming of my trip on the train from Lagos to Minna, then I will go on board a bus to Abuja. I believe this will lower the risk of accident on the road. Please if I may ask, when you had the train trip , what year was that? And what was the train velocity like km/hr? Was there a time the train was seemingly "gliding" on track as we see on movies, I know it will be difficult on the narrow gauge, but if full operation starts, how long will it take to get to Minna? You really enjoyed yourself ó, which tribe be the lady in question...lol

Hi folks, please I'm in need of a highly experience - Lagos based e-hailing driver . He/she must have driven on the ehailing ride application for not less than 500 trips or an accumulated kilometers of not less than 25,000 kilometers on either Bolt, Uber, indriver or either of the two ehailing app combined.

He must reside on the mainland, Ikeja, iyana-ipaja, abule egba ,dopemu, ogba , berger or isheri.

He must be married with kids or yet-to-father a child...

No age limit...

Abeg send me a dm...

The vehicle is 2005 Toyota Camry

Than you

I'm curious to ask, how is the thread dead?

God in his infinite mercy will continue to bless you for this question that you asked - " "how is the thread dead"...

I'm a man of statistics, figures& facts, so oftentimes I sat down to carry out a deep introspection about each policies of Government. I occasionally drive nowadays, infact, ehailing really helped me in so many ways, what do I mean? It further lays credence to the fact that human beings are fickle minded and varies from culture to culture, while maintaining same "morphology "...

Years after years, we've argued about the proverbial "Ant squad" and " non - ants", the Noun "ANT" , which could as well double as a verb or adverb, means - a driver, who believes working round the clock , will fetch him the financial numbers he had imagined.

While the "non ants" , who solely believe in strategy, feels oftentimes that the business of ehailing requires strategic thinking and smartness. The irony of it all is that, both school of thought are right, but one approach is more applicable than the other.

I so much appreciate so many drivers on this platform, individuals like Felicity, Barbiturates, X ghost, the guy that often has meme/pictorial illustration for each conversation instead of words, he is in the State now and the guy that drives Volvo - (i don forget him moniker) , he is a brand ambassador for Volvo, he'll tell you where to source for parts at Daleko and all other intricacies e.t.c

I've not been active on the platform, reasons not Farfetch from me engaging in other side hustles that pays me more than ehailing, but like I said, Ehailing gave me a new disposition to life, ranging from "human behavior", "divergence in race", "Gender issues" and all what not...


But the truth of the matter is, we've been unable to aggregate our individual thoughts online into Reality. I can't remember, there is a particular Moniker, I can't remember again, who is a proponent of having a small get -to-gether among ourselves, perhaps such laudable idea might come to fruition tomorrow, simply because each and everyone keeps chasing the bag, which is justified fair enough.

In closing thought, for the benefit of other neophytes riders, I plead with the oldies, not to quit the platform. I'm guilty of this also, but whenever I'm bored and feel like to spice up my day, I come on board the platform to read previous 10 - 15 pages, to keep myself abreast with the industry.

Finally, I plead without mentioning monikers, èyín àgbágbá to please, do not abscond from the platform, as there's more we could benefit from each other than driving round lasgidi.

Thank you and God bless...

Gracias

Some of us still love nairaland and we still love this thread.

We will continue to post our experience here and continue to advice people. We don't know it all. We are still learning. #humility pays!

Empty/white January as speculated before isn't actually empty/white.

Indrive miss me sotey dem dash me 6k bonus to lure me back 😊

I love Barbie, he's so compassionate and exudes empathy in all his dealings, can't forget years back when Barbie did give away, it was first of it's kind on this forum. Hello Barbie?

PuZZyNegro:


Indriver is the new oil well oo.

I did just 5 trips yesterday and took home 24k. I accepted the last trip of 3100 because I was going home so needed to use it as my destination trip.

Some prices I was seeing yesterday, it will take a high surge on Bolt to get that price

These trip was done within what stipulated time if I may ask, and besides what was the downtime period you had to incure? With these questions, we can make a good valid submission, for newbies and oldies

nizelgirl:
I wonder how some people are saying three months for such a big catfish fish. Anyways it's between 2-3 years. I once had such a mature brookstock while I sold some for hatching I also use some for home use and even giveaway for my close pal today the price of feeds is affecting the catfish business.

Hello bro, hope you're good. We all keep complaining about the price of fish feed , which is true, because feeding accounts for %70 of the operating cost in fish farming while management and the rest accounts for the remaining %30.

So what do we do about the feed price?

Solution: we look for alternative plant based crude protein (C.P) that we can substitute in replacement for exorbitant fishmeal...

Substitute for fishmeal are: soybean &bambara nut

But Government at the local&state level need to encourage farmers in the northern part of the country to grow more of this legumes by giving them incentives.

We cannot stem the tide of rising fish feed without backing of the Government and Private sector. Cry from now till tomorrow, the capitalist will want to keep ripping the farmers while at the end the Masses suffer

It's heltro.

The age is what I don't know.

There's nothing called "heltro" , the correct generic name is Heterobranchus while the most c'mon ones that's widely being reared is Clarias gariepinus.... Nevertheless, the fish is a broodstock, they often use them for breeding of fish, by stripping them of their eggs after injection of pituitaries in saline solution or the use of ?( I don forget the other one..lmao) , it's been over 2 decades now I graduated as an Aquaculturist

Confederation? Na fight go scatter them

Few months ago, the headless mob were supporting miltary coup in these three poverty striken countries.

They thought our decent military will grab power from Tinubu and handover to Obi.

Awon omo irankiran

"Poverty striken Countries"...you may be right to an extent, but the french who ripped those African colonies of all their resources has been chased out. I believe if they have the interest of the masses at heart, they'll go places. Niger has Uranium, and I believe you know the importance of this rare element in nuclear power generation and other radioactive purposes. Gabon, Niger, Mali, Upper Volta are off the wings of their colonial masters, Ivory coast, Algeria and Senegalese need to take a bold step

fx45:
You have no idea how carnivorous and brutal catfish can be. I own a fish farm and a large one for that matter. I've chased a cobra and it foolishly dived into a pond and that was the end. It didn't last 5 minutes.

Sometimes it's better not to argue about things you have no knowledge about. The snake is amphibious but the fish owns the water

How are you coping with the rising cost of fish feed besides are you producing your feed all by yourself or you're buying ready-made feeds like skrettings, blue crown e.t.c

Kevinjap:

Nice to hear.. there have been alot of improvement except for btw Gombe to Savannah

Glad to know the roads are better now, but besides what are the businesses that are thriving in Maiduguri, Bama and other towns now

Dear nairlanders..
It's been over a year since I left home for studies & the session is over now. Surprisingly things have changed.
I don't know if by any chance you can connect me to a free ride from Maiduguri to Yola 🙏

Wow...you're faraway in Maiduguri, I did my youth service in Gombe - several years back and it was fun. Hope the roads are better now. I miss the Northern part of Nigeria
