Northbird, your father didn't have home training, so I excuse him for not giving u what he didn't have. Probably he didn't also send u to school that's why u hear a new word and feel u can use it anyhow on others without knowing the meaning.

Did u read and comprehend that mumus post that u are coming out to defend nonsense? Ok maybe he is ur brother or your friend, u would have done better to balance your reprimand, I atleast would have retracted. But both of u are mad.
Who will fight for Baba Jamiu, Alhaji Ayinde, Hadji besh. If he calling names of old men who has families wasnt insulting, why then is me calling his father a cab man insulting? If the name calling was for insult, why then haven't u reprimanded him also as the chief of morals that you are.

Person insinuate rubbish upto the extent of saying Drivers will not leave long and u expect me to clap for him?
It's like kpe u are are mad. U brains needs to be reset if u have anything inside your skulls.

U have waka jay from Abuja to Lagos, still yet no show for u...come u better respect yourself and the village people following u before u add more problems to your life.
Is that all you have in your arsenal?

You cannot beat a child and still teach him or control him on how to cry. The cry would be relative to the pain.

Is it that you draw the line only when people's parents are called out?

How many times have u cautioned people about insulting each other or how many wrong narratives about some characters on this thread have u corrected without having to pick a side.

All I am saying is you cant come at someone and still teach them how to respond.

Inside crowd fight u fit blow me make I carry 2x2 follow u or burst bottle for ur head & still chook u bottle for yansh.

This is a public space, we should be able to filter what gets to us, no amount of insult person go give me 4 here wey go enter me, I won't even dig or find out about the person.
We must hold the ideals of being civilised.. there's no issue on this platform that should warrant casting aspersions on someone's parent..
No 4 by 4 planking suppose reach that level..

I can't bring or draw peoples parents into issues.. it's totally uncalled for.

Nobody can make me feel inferior... Bolt /Uber is not my father's company, one day ,we will all leave either by circumstance or decision. But ,when we are addressing issues, let us have that moral restraint not to insult parents or cast aspersions when we talk about someone's parent.
Haha.. that's not good.

If a child bites an adults buttocks without fear for shit, the adult will bite the babies nose without fear of catarrh.

I have been begging people to allow drivers be on this platform but a group of people whose dick only stands when they are in the midst of drivers will not listen. If u or anyother person even but draws a breathe (talkless of speak) and I feel it's offensive to drivers or me by extension, I will give it back to d person anyway I please. Enough is enough.
Dont be sly..all what you wrote there doesn't warrant you mentioning his dad..very very low of you .. bibire kose fowora..
...I'm waiting for the reply that will make you cry..

If I reply u the way u deserve u will cry.

I don't see any insult if I tot his dad was a cab man. Cos I don't see it as an insult if someone calls me an Uber driver.

If people (including u) have refused to address issues without insulting personalities, I will also make my address and include personalities. So thread carefully.
Go ahead. and reply..... i wont shift my ground.. Bibire kose fowora. .. just don't be sly to bring peoples parents into issues.. haha... what's all that?. Very low of you mentioning his dad.. very very low.

Always sly, show me where I attacked any personality here.?

If u come with rational thinking and Intelligent
advise, I will clap for you, but if u come with insults and washing u will definitely collect in good measure.

That aside, u have worked for 14years straight yet u still need a loan to buy engine and u use auction before u can buy a car. I tot all our salary workers have money loaded in bank accounts. Oga, just getat before u disgrace yourself here.
In a bid to show urself, u opened ur broke ass.
Your total pension contribution can only buy 2 corolla. Ehhh God.

Just keep encouraging drivers, do what u can to help people, that's noble and I celebrate u for that. But the moment u start downgrading and tarnishing drivers, u will get a response, whether u quote me or not.
Stop saying rubbish... address issues , don't drag personalities.. there's nothing that should warrant dragging @ dapotemis dad in the discussion,
That was really low of you.
Learn how to address issues without being unnecessarily caustic..

Well,

Except you knew him more than his family. It was a actually side hustle

I was following the story.. I don't know the real tag for the profession.. they are responsible for images in medical investigation ...ct scan,xray and sonograpphy..etc.. do newspapers really investigate nowadays before publishing?. He is not a doctor.

The car was tracked to a mechanic workshop like 15 mins drive from where I live. Puposola Street,New oko oba,Abule-egba.

There was actually a doctor that was killed in Lagos two years ago or thereabouts while doing Uber as a side hustle at night. It's a business that is meant to be a side hustle. So anyone can do it regardless of status. It's just the hopeless way people think in this country that deter so many from joining.

I'm convinced there are one or two doctors on this thread that have done it or are still doing it as a side hustle.
Radiologist.. not a medical doctor

Same here… just need to tackle cheerful that day. Saw this trip from Ikeja to Ago 5100. Trip was around 40 mins. Tot after years they would have fixed the road. Took me to get to the place before I realized they’ve placed curse on that community rd.
How do people living in such areas cope,?.. I mean I don't live in Ikoyi myself, I stay on the mainland too. But haha, some areas in Lagos, are not worth it.. Abeg..
Look at that igbo efon too, I mean ,do they blindfold people going there to rent houses?.. even if I wasn't mobile, that entrance alone has cancelled any thoughts of having to deal with any property there. Buy or rent

Took a ride to community road of ago palace rd last week Saturday. I was just nagging anyhow. Give rider a star to further reduce her rating to 3 point with only 5 rides. I’m sure before she reached ten rides, Indrive would have blocked her.

I may shift to Asaba pretty soon. Their own comes with union. Booked a ride on bolt 1k for 9 mins ride. All the drivers are just saying 2500. Tips on 5h, they won’t take it
Indrive no dey block riders because of ratings.

Very clean Toyota Corolla 06 on hire purchase N4.1m for 130weeks at N30k weekly.

Fleet management company will charge 10% of the N4.1m, then another 20% of N200k deposit.

Is it a good deal? What do i need to disagree with?
What in the name of God are you doing with a NAIJA USED car for HP @ that outrageous rate embarassed

Then,you are going to pay 450k to another entity for doing nothing grin.. Hold your 200k tightly.

Look for rentals. That's the first test. If you can't do rentals successfully, you can't do HP.

Thanks bro. Northbird is just beefing unnecessarily
You are funny, why would I do beef you or anyone on the platform..Someone you might never cross paths physically with .. baba you get it wrong here..

Modified: BTW,why is it that if someone makes an opinion, everyone tags it beefing.
You discounted traffic, and I'm telling you traffic free Sunday is the best day in ehailing.. and you tag it as beef....
All high earners in ehailing don't joke with Sundays.

Check my posts, I'm always interested in people giving an accurate representation of events. That's all.

As expensive as fuel is, some fuel attendants still wants to cheat us.

This guy at Oando Badore sold 1k fuel to a Keke Napep, he didn't clear the sale and decided to continue mine, I saw and raised alarm, he wanted to argue, I told not to try I or we'll escalate it.

He sold me extra 1k fuel.
Very true.. but how do those guys push air into the tank instead of fuel.
If I'm buying 10k upwards. I tell them to program it and I tell them not to interfere with the pump dispensing.
Why are the attendants so wicked?

Grace + Hardwork = Big earning.

All you listed here had little influence on my earnings
Really, did 25k net easily on Wed,Thurs,Friday. On sat,I did 30k net. My net is after fuel &commission..
Reason, roads were free.

Traffic has a major influence on your earnings. Don't discount it. When was the last time you were above 290k gross in a week? You have the stats with you,check it.

Sunday is the best day to max earnings on ehailing. ..and the reason is not far fetched.. traffic is at its lowest on Sundays.

Next up is 500k gross weekly by God's grace
Last week's figures was up for obvious reasons..
-sallah break.
-road was free.
-More people came out to celebrate..
- fewer drivers.
-A lot of our Muslim umma didn't work for some stretch of the four days.

Good evening guys.

Guys how legit is this, I'm scared of making the payment only to be disappointed later as it isn't easy coughing out 30k in this economy.
Guys I need your input.. The Church is a big church here in Lagos.
Please no mods should take this to front-page o so they won't see this
Where in Ajah, ? No specific address, no designation.. probably the GNLD guys, any institution asking for payment before employing you is a fraud. BTW,you should know this now,if you really got stuff up your sleeves..

As long as there's no direct distributor of Toyota lubricants in Lagos, there will be more fake products than the original.

Toyota has a lot of dealers in Nigeria, Elizabeth,briscoe, Metropolitan n Co. I don't know why they don't sell Toyota lubricants, @ least their service centre should help in that aspect.
