This is no way to live life, tueh.

That traffic is still there!!! Crazy, I miss this house. How’s everyone. There’s been over 100 pages unread conversation, guess I’m going to join the train again from here. Be safe out there guys.

I'm sure that your travel out of Lagos is not beyond Ore. From Ore down to Benin, don't even try it. The policemen on that stretch are devils.

No, that’s not my route

GiggsTk:

Haa...quite confused boss.

While I know permits are not being processed currently, I also know we are in Nigeria and these men in uniform are notorious for asking for things that they shouldn't ask for, but I want to know how often this happens...
plus when you meet them on a journey in the bush, it's you and them o, not you and what the IGP says

I normally travel out of Lagos every two weeks and I’ve not had any issue with tint but since you don’t have permit, I will advise you not to risk it. I have permit and medical report

abefeabebi:
Good day to u all, to the legend in the house, please how do you go about ur savings, which method or platform is good for saving.

I personally, is saving in a corporative pending the time I will need another car which I can't even say when I will need a car and am scared if the corporative won't collapse. For now am having over 1m there since Nov last year.
Is there another way of saving that is guaranteed of taking loan when the need arise and is survival is certain.

My car is just 2 years still in good condition.
Is bank doing such savings method

Cooperative is actually a good platform bro, but just ask for some amount to test their response time and deposit it back the following month. You digg? Personally, I save money through daily, weekly and monthly thrift then covert that to cooperative or business.

GiggsTk:
Who has very dark tints on their windows here?
Do you get disturbed by police for whatsoever?
Note: not factory tint

I do but I have permit for it

Omoapena:
Bolt will soon block me, pilotz, pls, what's the new format?

Download inDriver man, I’ve given up on them unless there’s 1.6x-1.9x surge and I only do destination trip until I can boost the driver score back up.

Brand Spanking New Samsung S22 is available for sale, black, 256GB, factory unlocked and it’s still in the box. Send a mail to moraxola@outlook.com for more enquiries.

mejai:

So u no fit afford flight? Una dey fall hand o. With all this una week in week out.

Or drive his car. I’ve missed the gbas gobs here, been out of Lagos for over 3 weeks now and over 40 unread pages. No be me go read am. Na to deh follow the flow from here.

ReadaDream:
If it's not a life and death situation, don't take any trip going out of Lagos through Berger except you plan to return using EPE-AJAH route.

Wtf! I've been in this traffic since 430am! Not anywhere close to Berger. More than 4hrs now , this is terrible.

You ought to have used Epe, I was in Ibadan 2 days ago when I checked the map, I just turned towards Ijebu Ode and came in through Epe.

ReadaDream:
You no try at all. You didn't check your entry and exit before putting head. Infact your exit is very important.

I they always shout am here, avoid Sangotedo except it's a must

Right now, I am contemplating whether to stay at home or drive through the traffic. It’s red already. It’s becoming pain in the a*s

ReadaDream:
Small thing.

We go link up then Baba.

RaptObserver:


No. Just routine inspection to be sure the car is in good shape. That was what he told me but he is a very busy man. He basically just hammered on his remittance. That he doesn't joke with it o. So the civic doesn't come with any other condition.

The corolla man is ready to reconsider his position on the weekend thing but he said he may need to use the car once in a whole for one or two days.

Why are you wasting your time on the Corolla (the guy man has only that car and he’s definitely going to be collecting it once a week (probably weekend) when you have a good alternative already.

LordVarys1:
I feel for you. Guess your engine has knocked. But should alternator belt make an engine to knock? Just wondering.

the answer is no, timing chain can cause that not serpentine belt

Thurmieee:
Please my people I need help.
My Toyota Corolla alternator belt cut while on motion. The place was the bad place so I couldn't stop then I rugged the car to almost reach house before he come pack up. Then it's not starting again . Later the mechanic say the engine don loose pressure na to buy another one

IMO, that’s a wrong diagnosis, the only thing connected to the belt that can affect your engine in a bad way is the water pump and that will leads to overheating then a burnt gasket, I advised you changed the mechanic and also check if your oil is mixed with water already, if it’s then change your gasket and the engine should come back to life

RaptObserver:
Good morning comrades.

I need expert opinion on a matter before me.

I have two offers of rentals at hand, a corolla (pure water) and a civic 07...

I need proper advice on which one to pick based on:

Profit
Maintenance
Ruggedness
Any other useful info

The owner of corolla said I will bring the car for him every weekend and I take it on Monday to work with. I told him weekend is the main period the hustle pays that it will be hard to meet up. He said, I will meet up.

IMO, Provided both cars are in good shape, taking the car from you on weekends is a no no so just go with the civic and have your peace of mind, the civic is very rugged just as Corolla but the ground clearance is a bit lower than Corolla. Other than that, civic is a very good car.

Sangotedo to Sangotedo parole. I feel you baba but Wifey must hear this sha

DOVgadgets:
I just came across this on their portal
The car is question has some minor scratches and dents
The ac works and the other things are intact
Will that be a problem
Abeg make una epp una boy
I no wan beg for food

You need to fix the dents and touch up all the scratches. The car won’t pass inspection here in Lagos but if it’s not that much, it will pass in Ibadan but be very sure it’s possible to modify the docs otherwise you’re just wasting your time with bolt.

Uber will accept the car since it’s 2000 model.

DOVgadgets:

I’m taking notes boss
Moving back to Lagos is no issue
Na money I dy find before and about registering with bolt
How can I locate their office in Lagos

Uber will accept the car but bolt won’t accept this unless if you can change the docs to 2003 on the paper (dunno if that’s possible).

If it’s possible to change the doc to 2003, download bolt driver app and register and make sure you choose Lagos when registering then go to the front of this popular mall ( I guess Ventura )in Ibadan for your inspection. The guys there are not as crazy as the guys here in Lagos.

Download Uber driver app as well, choose Lagos when registering, you can do your inspection here in Lagos when you get in (I dunno Uber inspection center in Ibadan).

Once you master those app, you can then port to inDriver. InDriver is a bit technical for new driver.

northbird:
Please house, what's the right sequential order for name on a DL.
Surname, first, midde name.

Surname, middle, first name

My case: Middle name, Surname, First name.

I want this corrected before renewal.

Surname Name, First Name then Middle Name

northbird:
The other day, one of us was writing to bolt customer care... I'm like. There's no point, they won't listen to you anyway....

When their revenues take a serious hit, I'm sure they will sit tight. You don't tell a blind man it's raining, if he can't see the rain, at least, he can smell or feel it.
Take the case of Uber, can you imagine a whole Uber sending emails to drivers that commission has been reduced to 20%

(there's no company in the world that abruptly changes strategy, especially when it comes to their revenue, ) some months back,with different types of bonus. attached, that shows they really lost drivers to competition...

I did 2 trips on bolt today (destination trips) when I noticed the surge, there’s no loyalty to any app and that’s the deal now henceforth. If there’s no surge on bolt, I can’t deal with their pricing and commission. I’ve done trips on inDriver that I cannot get the same value on bolt unless if the trips is on surge.

northbird:


The guy has been bidding low fares too. 7 trips only and his ratings already 4.2. That means he has been paying really low fares for his trips....

or maybe he was preaching bolt to the drivers and they are returning the favour by dashing him 1 star

Pearl1910:


Lolz...so anybody, requesting from Bolt office is a Bolt staff ?

He's a bolt staff.


Took the 2nd screenshot now

ReadaDream:
It's caused by an accident at the traffic light. I thought by now they would have taken the bus away. It's just annoying, I can't count the no of trips I've missed because I don't want to go towards that side.

Road don clear boss…..


E still deh wrapper from VGC to Ajah Bridge

Avoid any trips towards Ajah for now. Coming out from Ajah is free

ReadaDream:
Before you take a trip to VGC/Ajah axis this morning, make sure the trio is worth your time.

Traffic there is not friendly, don't waste your time.

It wasn’t funny and I didn’t even check the map at all this morning cos it’s unusual to have traffic there by that time on Sunday.

YeyeGbami:
Quick one, my wife birth our son yesterday. It means the world to me.

Congratulations Chief.

donbrowser:


There's kompressor and 4matic of that car

Yes but they don’t use that engine in 4Matic, that’s a 4 plug m271 engine and it’s only used for Kompressor version.

Both M271 and M111 engines are used for Kompressor w203.

donbrowser:


Kompressor or 4matic?

That’s a compressor engine (M271 Engine I guess)

MoonlightDrive:
Hello pilots, please I might need to change my car evaporator. The ac technician discovered that the car cabin filter of my Corolla had been removed so the evaporator has been compromised. Passengers at the back seat complain that they are not feeling the ac even though the ac knob is at the 4th switch when the knob is put on the last or 5th switch, there is zero cooling and it makes so rattling noise. The cooling effect is okay early in the morning or at night time, but barely noticeable on sunny days. The technician has recommended a tokunbo replacement, I am more inclined to buying a brand new one. Please your experience/ advice will be greatly appreciated Thanks.

Buy a new evaporator
