@Ogunvic41, GAZZUZ, Romeo, well done guys. What you guys are doing here is wonderful. Honestly you guys are helping to build this nation by the way you're encouraging entrepreneurship. A lot of young men including me have benefited from your shared experiences, advice and directions. No amount of impersonation by any fraudster shall bring you down. God bless you guys.

I want to acquire a Nigerian used Peugeot 406 with Ew10 Engine, haven't gone for inspection but owner said everything is working perfectly, but I know it's what he'll say so as to sell his car. I don't know about Peugeot like I know Toyota. What and what should I check? Unfortunately car is in South East.

Also will Honda Civic 2003/04 be ok for Uber/Taxify.

I greet you guys.. Thank you.

It is not about me. Just be careful what you type in a forum of over three million people. Don't think that because you are hiding under a moniker you are anonymous. You'll be surprised the amount of business that were initiated or concluded on this forum. Or jobs vacancies filled. It is huge. People have met here as strangers and become friends for life. I've met wonderful people here. I can tell you that I don't need government patronage, nor jobs nor handout. And I am not abusive to strangers.

Your post makes no sense Mr poster.

WE WILL NOT FORGET

Dr. Ezekiel Izuogu : How the Izuogu Z-600 dream was destroyed

In 1997, a brilliant Igbo Electrical Engineer and Lecturer at the Federal polytechnic Nekede, Dr. Ezekiel Izogu designed and developed the Izuogu Z-600, the first African indigenous manufactured car.

The car was described by the BBC as ‘ the African dream machine as 90% of its parts were sourced locally. At a projected sales cost of 2000 dollars, it would have taken the world by storm and become the cheapest and most affordable car on earth. With mass production planned under Izogu Motors plant in Naze owerri, the prospects of an industrial revolution in Igbo land and Nigeria, was in the making.

The car was equipped with a self made 1.8L four cylinder engine that got 18mpg and allowed the car to achieve a top speed of 140 km/h. Front Wheel Drive (FWD) was chosen over Rear Wheel Drive (RWD) because a transmission tunnel, which RWD would require, would be more expensive to fabricate.

So 90% of the car’s components were made locally. General Sani Abacha set up a 12 man panel of inquiry made up of professionals to ascertain the road worthiness and authenticity of the car and after several days of probing, the committee gave Dr. Izuogu’s car a clean bill of health, recommending that some of the bumps on the body of the car be smoothened. It is worthy to note that this was five years before India built their first car known as the Indi.

At a well organized unveiling ceremony which had General Abacha represented by Oladipo Diya, over 20 foreign ambassadors and thousands of people in attendance, the federal government promised a grant of 235 million naira to Dr. Izuogu.

An excited Dr. Izuogu is still waiting for that grant till today. No dime was released to him. In 2006, the government of South Africa invited Dr. Izuogu to do a presentation about the car in the presence of several world class engineers. Being impressed with his presentation, they invited him to come and set up a plant in South Africa and begin the production of the car.

Dr. Izuogu reluctantly agreed, though he wasn’t happy that the benefits of employment generation will be lost on the locals of Naze and the Nigerian human resources environment. On Saturday, the 11th of March 2006, at about 2.00 a.m, a total of about 12 heavily armed men broke into Dr. Izogu’s factory in Naze and carted away various machines and tools including the design history notebook of Z-600, the design file Z-MASS, containing the design history for mass production of Z-600 car, and the moulds for various parts of the car.

According to Dr. Izogu:

“It seems that the target of this robbery is to stop the efforts we are making to mass-produce the first ever locally made car in Africa. Other items stolen included locally produced timing wheel, locally produced camshaft, locally produced crankshaft, locally produced engine tappets, all 20 pieces each.

Also stolen were ten pieces of locally produced Z-600 engine blocks, ten pieces of locally produced pistons, four pieces of engine block mounds, four pieces of top engine block moulds, ten pieces of engine fly wheel and two pieces each of rear car and front mudguard moulds.”The inventor regretted that not only did they lose over one N1 billion in monetary terms, but also time (about 10 years) and the energy it took to design and produce the moulds. “To worsen the matter, our design notebook was also stolen,” he stated.

He regarded the incident as a national economic disaster because the nation had lost a technological and intellectual property. This Press was quiet about this story. The set back and governments attitude frustrated Izuogu and his dream died.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has released the statement below announcing the release of Innocent Chukwuma, the chief executive officer of Innoson Motors.

The businessman was released on bail, the EFCC said.
https://www.ireporteronline.com/innoson-boss-innocent-chukwuma-released-bail/

EFCC always showing the world how foolish they are. They thought INNOSON is just a common man. You must not be a politician before you have power, INNOSON earned power from hard work put in his business.

Carshopper:
Too expensive... try something lower ... first Uber ride was 012 sonata... subsequent ones 2007-2008 kia rio 1.6L (3 presently and still intend buying more)

It's really depends on how u want to run ur biz model. I started with the mindset of C.H.S while using Uber model so vehicle will not b idle.

Do riders rate you low coz f the kind of car? Reason why I don't want to put my 2001 Camry on Uber is cos of low rating from riders who definitely won't like the car.

Xisnin:
Stop being a fool.
It is a shame that Innoson couldn't hire a proper media person but a runs girl
to launder his image and blackmail GTB.

I know it is not your fault that my post was beyond your reasoning capacity.

Oga your post makes no sense. Someone made a post with verifiable facts and figures, you're countering the post with personal opinion and sentiments for reasons best known to you, even insulting someone you know nothing about and you think you're making sense?

Now that facts are actually coming out, People like osucoward are avoiding the thread.
Tribalism has never helped anybody instead it destroys.
That mind, time and energy you're using to hate people from South East, if you invest such in hard work, you'll be very successful in life.

When Oba Akiolu said he would throw detractors and dissidents into the Lagoon, little did they know he was being figurative about the lagoon, here is one one of the several lagoons he threatened to throw them into, bad Christmas for Atikulators living in Lagos.

Sorry it's never a bad Christmas for anyone. Know that whatever you think for people goes back to you so it's bad Christmas for you. Children born and live in hatred against Ibos, what have you gained? Only heart attack and mind unrest.

It don dey start for APC. They built their house on the sand, flood is about to carrying it away...

How can Southwest all of a sudden come to take over PDP by trying to field Prf. Adeniran as PDP Chairman. Where were they when Wike and Fayose were fighting to bring PDP back to life from the hands of Alimodu Sheriff.
Where are all those ewedu boys here shouting west will teach Wike Politics.

Every serious person in any Political party has learnt never to trust the west.
They are betrayers, they like to reap where they didn't sow, they like to belong to "ALREADY MADE", can't work out anything on their own.

Pricne Uche Secondus is the right person for the post and that was what happened at the convention.

For those who need a vehicle for business

For those talking about Infinix, whatever type you're using, if you get notifications about updates available, cllick to update your apps. I don't know who's telling you guys that updating apps affects your phone. Updating app is diff from upgrading a phone. If you don't update your apps, how do you now get best use of that app. Those who drive on Uber and taxify for example, if you receive notification of apps update which Uber app is one of them, how do you expect the app to work well especially in calculation of fares if you don't do the update.

I support the declaration of full war against IPOB. Anyone who decides to do 'buy one, get one free' with his life gets no pity from me. What is Kanu s intention for creating the erstwhile Biafra secret service if not to carry out acts of terrorism? The US can shove its advice up its stinky ass.

Bro take it easy, hatred kills causes it causes HBP and mind-unrest.
Meanwhile who will declare the war against IPOB, you and your papa? Hahahahahahhaha... Oya what is holding you people, go ahead and declare na...

Rawani:
Have you been living under a rock?

You mean American security agents don't shoot their own citizens whether armed or unarmed?

The same American officers that would shoot you dead for moving your hands nearer to your pockets talk less of attacking them with bottles and stones?

Wow you either gotta be kidding or need to read more.

That's the reason why Nigerian govt deceives People like you. US is talking about the army in their numbers shooting live bullets on citizens and you are here talking about US police that shot an American. How does the two relate?
