Was trying to access Ogba thru fagba, presently no road towards Fagba....

Heard a train crushed a car on the rail track.. Odejobi too is closed...

Avoid trips towards fagba...

If uber upgraded their vehicle terms does that mean they don't accept toyota corolla le 07 and toyota corolla sport 07

Boss, you car qualifies... Which terms? @ ₦65/km,n ₦11/min what terms r they upgrading...

For me any car beyond 2007, you r just treading water,

same thing happen to my car on Monday, when i took it to my ac guy he confirm the compressor was gone and one of the fan too but thank God condenser was stil intact...my brother i spent over 50k to fix it

Not to make you doubt ur technician.. But what convinced you that your compressor was gone.?


I had an experience, weeks back, the Ac was not blowing....

I used my layman knowledge of AC N its parts, I opened the hood of car, start engine, put on ac, everything seemed fine, fan was working... Coolant intact.

... but I noticed the compressor wasn't rolling, yeah the belt was rolling quite all right, but compressor was not working.

Now the same issue happened like a year earlier, where the AC expert @ Ogba said the compressor was gone.... Where the compressor was changed.. N all...

So fast forward, I concluded too that the compressor was bad even without going based on the signs...

On Monday, instead of going to Ogba, I went to a young AC chap who helps me if I need to top up the gas...

Dude brought his guage n all, told me it wasn't gas, I said I know , that it's compressor.

Dude said no.. That my compressor is good... Said it was a swtich/ relay that's not bringing power to the compressor.

Guy fixed it, n AC jumped back to how it's been working.

My epistle is... I believe if I had gone to Ogba, the supposed AC expert will Def condemn the compressor, making the work look so big so that he can justify the charges.... I'm glad I had a rethink that day.

@ Baz 001.

Its good you are concerned. Covid thing is everywhere...

I hv been off the radar since last week. Last Friday was d last tym I worked on d app. Getting better though,

After every trip, if it allows it, wind down all windows n allow fresh air for at least 5 mins.

The bane of this work is that enclosed space one shares with all and sundry.

[quote author=donfortune48 post=98877393][/quote]Waoh, can't fathom d reason why mine was removed. Thanks....

Greetings house, do you still get % after bla bla trips on Bolt.

Can't find d % part.
What is left is that weekend do 26 trips n get 4k or so, I can't do 26 trips o.. . That's way too much.

jjmk:
I am new to Uber. I want to get a HP for a Toyota Corolla tokunboh.
Price of car is 2.3m
HP is 4m.
Weekly remittance: 25k

Told the owner 4m is too much.

I am asking the house, was I right or is that price (4m) what is obtainable?

You are right, but look for rental.

I'm suspecting it's Abuja. Forget it, the market there is overhyped.

On Uber / Bolt, it's almost impossible.. You are a newbie too.

NNPC, Ikoyi club.
Total, Awolowo road,ikoyi
Total, Mobolaji Bank Anthony way, Maryland.
Northwest oil, Lekki Epe Expressway
Enyo, ikate
Heyden petroleum, Lagos - Abeokuta expressway after ile Zik heading towards ikeja Along.
These ones sells accurate fuel.

Places to avoid
Mobil, Ozumba Mbadiwe expressway/Ligali Ayorinde, Victoria island just beside Mobil HQ (Na Yahoo plenty for that station)
Mobil, Ahmadu Bello way, Victoria island.
Ap at Awolowo road ,ikoyi.
Pinnacle Petroleum, Lekki 2nd roundabout.
Mobil, Awolowo road, ikoyi.
Conoil, Lagos- Abeokuta expressway before Cement.

That Mobil close to their HQ is rife with sharp practices, almost all the attendants there find a way to shortchange you.

It's so sad, I mean right there in front of d HQ.

deedee44:
False. And there are married oloshos too

Very true. Mehn... things I have seen in this Uber hustle.......

Pls. don't park and stop anyhow around Alausa.

Watch out for these roads.

If you are tired, drive down to shoprite n Park inside. Before the free 1 hour elapses, you should have gotten a trip.

if no trip yet, paying ₦200 for parking is far better than giving a thieving towing van and it's officials thousands of naira.

Stay awake.

How many times I call you sooo


na food you dey call like dis ooh

Yes boss, . Wetin I prescribe for davit go give Coro bulala.( horse whip)

Hot amala with Abula, with smoked fish.... Once you sweat, , Coro go pick race....

davit:
Thanks. I was there at last. Did the test. Result to be out latest weekend, that s if son of man still dey alive by then

Was given one of the drugs they use to treat their patients. Back home very weak.

Bro... Don't entertain any fear. Nothing do you.

See... Hot amala with ewedu and gbegiri soup with smoked fish.... You will sweat... Shikena

In the morning slice like ₦50 garlic into your rice.


Fruits, esp. Pineapple and banana.

dejidotun2000:
Greetings !

I wondered where you were holed up.

On another note, you guys(pope, felicity001 etc) will just be typing oven upandan without asking about darmilolah who invented the slang, e no good oooo.

. You remembered him. The dude that was called to help light baking/ gas oven from the next street.

Good guys don desert this thread sha....

radautoworks:
was this outside of the one hour they have to claim list items? If so, sounds like a "him" problem to me

Yes.

I hv been expecting his call today. I guess they just wanted to try that angle, he wasn't too sure how he misplaced the watch.....

As per the guy doing 800 trips..... I don't believe it


But I believe the 1 million gross. Very possible, if you have the backing of a machine/ app.

I think Bolt has an arrangement with him.


Also two people using the account is highly possible.

Thirdly, Bolt has geofenced him to trips only on the island/ Lekki axis.. Anywhere he goes, his ID has been given precedence over all other drivers. Regardless of their status on the queue.

He gets the next closest / available trip whenever
he is around, iPhone 6s, 4gb ram , modem or whatever gadgets other drivers use notwithstanding .

1 million gross in a month from driving . Nawa o.

shollywendy1:
Since you have reported the incident to bolt or better still report to nearest police station, you are covered.
You don't have to ignore their calls. It will make things seems fishy. Stand on your word each time they call you, if it's resulting in threats, hang up. But don't ignore their calls. They will look elsewhere for it

Thanks boss.

pope191:
Just as the as IFSHR says, report yourself first to the police station and as well, the police should make attempt to invite the person involved and if possible record the threat before going to the station as evidence. Police can change it for you based on how you present your case and who money long pass, so b mindful, but don't take any threat in this hustle as mere words.

Thanks Boss.

IFSHR:
Try and incident it at the nearest police station closest to you and also message bolt of such development.....try and get the number searched on true caller, if it brings out a name you can run it on different SM Apps.

Thanks. Boss.

Seniors ,pls advise me on this case.

Rider A.
I picked a rider up and dropped the rider at his location, BTW. the rider had two female companions with him, they moved into a suite/ apartment

I got another short ride n he paid n I left too.

I got a third ride, on my way to complete the third trip, I got a call( that's like after an hour of dropping the first rider) from the first rider that he forgot an item in the car.

I'm sure he didn't forget any item. I told him so. Because I checked the car when I got to the destination.

Later another line called me n started threatening me about having my phone number n number plate. That I should make myself available. I told him angrily that I don't have anything to do with him.

I have reported the ride on the Bolt.app.

If the no. Calls tomorrow, I asked some people n they said I shouldn't pick such nos again. But I was countering them that, if I don't pick, won't it mean I'm avoiding them.

Seniors, pls advise.

InfinityEstates:
Noted Boss... But, I didn't notice any sign there o, abi na me no check well. But I noticed that the way the road was design didn't allow for an easy turn into the road.

Walai, it's there. All the uniform guys for Oniru now, na there their office dey.

InfinityEstates:
Boss, is it that road that there's Chicken Republic?

Yes

For the newbies. As per one way.

You can't make a left turn into Oniru from Ozumba Mbadiwe if you are coming from Lekki Phase 1.

Google map will gladly lead you into the waiting arms of lastma and traffic police at the other end. .

BTW there is a "No Left turn sign" by the signpost ( reason why you need to be very observant).

In this case, the local signage trumps any advisory from Gmap.

Be guided.

dru23:
Oyinbo hmmm? Which oyinbo naija Lebanese na dat 1 u people call oyinbo ,Abi na person wey dey light in complexion ? .......


Well anyways in the USA , I don't know about other developed countries.... You can't be driving around with no lincense plates o .. Your car will be taken away from you and your drivers lincense can be revoked.........

And u can't be driving around with smoke coming out of your tailpipe of ur car .. It means your car has either fail inspection or your car had developed issue at that currant time......

There are rules and regulations in the developed world .. You just dont enter car and enter road dey drive my brother....... Let us try to be civilized here o

Did you read @ all

If it's a tokunbo car, in Nigeria parlance, who is referring to an oyinbo driving it. I mean they also abuse engines too.

Let me spell it out for you. A tokunbo big daddy that was bought some days earlier.

Dude brought it to the mech workshop, car was having issues. No number plates, means it has not been registered...

Car was smoking. Even the humming was not too cool. And he bought it direct.

Even a blind man knows this vehicle came straight from the port.

deedee44:
No be everybody dey maintain engine for Yankee I don see some tokunbo wey just land with sludge

Next?...

Baba this is very true.

Today I saw camry big daddy tokunbo, that was smoking. No number plate yet. I'm like oyinbo sef they misuse car too .

Monacokyle:
Good morning sir
Please what do you mean by hypermilling?
And how do you likely spot a one way drive in Lagos
I am not too used to Lagos roads
Your reply would be appreciated
Thanks

Henceforth, keep your eyes open.... Watch out for erected poles, anything standing on the road ....


It still beats me how some drivers enter the one way @ ICM, and the No U turn @ Governor's road. I mean, this is big enough now.

Some are faded/ inconspicuous .. E.g the one at barlikisiyu Iyede road.. Harvey road that connects to Unilag ( the one way signage looks like a piece of Maggi cube on a Plate of rice)

Look further ahead when driving.... On ehailng, you must develop ur sixth sense... Esp. when you are on the mainland.

She absconded without paying for the ride.

It's so sad sha. That's why I don't please any rider... Esp when it comes to traffic rules, because when the chips are down, they won't wait or beg with you.

For a long time, the stigma is going to be on her, right now, her pictures r going viral for the wrong reasons...

Wisdomwise18:
It might take some time for your business to start producing #100k per month with such capital at the early stage of the business depending on the business niche! Except it has to do with the supply of products! Businesses these days are facing quiet some challenges also! My best advice is that you invest the money in one of these trusted investment scheme! Atleast I know of one that there office is at Asaba, Portharcout and other parts of the country where you can invest #500k and get #85k ROI

Don't fall for any investment scheme.

How on Earth can an investment scheme promise you 50% ROI and you believe it's genuine and sustainable, in Nigeria.?

Op find a biz that revolves around people's needs on a daily basis, then adapt a biz model around that.

pope191:
So you think Sunday is coming to equity with clean hands? Check his antecedent very well.

I understand, but Gana was terrorizing his own people, kidnapping people, stealing cows, causing unrest in benue. Cmn.

pope191:
They won't for some reasons, but like Izzou sas, if they want him out they will. Remember the Benue guy, how they finish is case.

There's no correlation. The benue guy was an unrepentant catlle rustler, kidnapper n all manner of things, he even killed n ambushed soldiers. he had it coming...

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Irunmole for Government?

If the NA mean am, we won't hear of him forever

I just hope the issue is handled carefully. I no want another unrest [/color]

There is no politician worth its salt in Oyo state and it's environs, who has not patronized the services of igboho.

He's not a cattle rustle, infact, if it's cash, guy is loaded.

Arresting him means tearing up the surface of an already festered wound.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]So he's not from Oyo state?[/color]

He's from oyo state
