My anger right now can't be fully understood.

This guy called Ogunvic (Ogunleye Kayode) is the most foolishly proud, arrogant and irresponsible person I have ever met.

I'LL TRY TO EXPLAIN IN DETAILS


Towards the end of last year December I was fortunate to meet the Mech Specialist Mr Gazzuzz who sold me a faultless Tokunbo Toyota Corolla. After negotiations and all documents handed over I decided to meet Ogunvic and try out his over exaggerated Fleet Management.

We scheduled a couple of meetings and a few calls and in all he was very boastful about the system he runs and kept guaranteeing its 'foolproof'. Here's a summary of his terms and conditions:

Partner to handle all maintenance and mechanical faults.
Repairs to be handled by the insurance company will be treated "DULY".
FleetXpert agrees to "Notify" partner of any mechanical problems with the vehicle.
Partner provides "N30, 000 worth of Fuel + Total Card"
Partner to provide driver with
A Brand New Phone
Spectranet 4G Modem
Car Charger

In the event of unfortunate events Fleetexpert pays Partner 60% of whatever driver makes after fuel cost deduction "before the unfortunate event".

After he then added an eye sore that Partner to pay N20,000 Driver Registration Fee which was not included in the contract. I specifically told him that's not possible cuz I see no reason for such from the partner.

As at the time I had no cash on me for all he listed and I asked him to handle the 15k Spectranet, 30k fuel, 1k total card and getting fire extinguisher, car wash and floor carpets and car charger (estimated around 10k) totaling approximately 56k. I told him to deduct 20k off the weekly agreed till its fully paid off and he reluctantly agreed. I went ahead and got his specified phone.

Being concerned about my car and its usage plus stories I read here on Nairaland about car theft and vandalism since most drivers don't have gated parking space. I asked him to search for a driver living around the mainland (preferably any in and around Surulere, Akoka, Anthony, Maryland, Isolo) and for security I asked the car be parked in my office complex which was by the bus stop expressway so it's easy for the driver to come out and pick up. With this I can also keep an eye on the conditions of my car. This offer was obviously turned down. He gave his reasons so I agreed.

I further asked if whenever I needed to use the car for work delivery or outing the driver could assist with discounted payment for service rendered and he agreed.

All doubts crosschecked I made up my mind to entrust him with the car regardless. On Friday 5th of January I handed over the car. He agreed to get a driver and do all necessary arrangements for the car to begin work as soon as possible.

Next day I checked my tracker and saw series of movements between Magboro in ogun state, lekki, ilupeju and ikeja. I called him to ask if he got a driver and didn't let me know but he wasn't picking so I asked Mr reliable Gazzuzz and he explained to me that he lives in magboro, works around ilupeju and has an office in lekki. So I relaxed even with sadness about the car gaining so much miles and no money to show. Kayode later called and with a tone said he wasn't going to continue with me. I called back apologized and explained my concern and we resolved the matter. He said he'll try to get a driver soon.

On Monday 8th he informed me he got a driver (Emmanuel Offikwu) staying at Agege and he's concluding discussions. So with hope work will start. According to the driver he started work on Thursday even though tracker shows lekki movements Wednesday and overnight. I found out later from Driver that the day he collected the car he took it to a mechanic to fix the silencer cuz it was damaged by Ogunvic and he kept it from me (remember the agreement signed). Now I kept silent.

By Tuesday 16th I called Ogunvic Kayode and asked for an update on my pay. He said driver made around 57k and he would make calculations and give me a breakdown. I said ok and waited. 2 days later nothing sent. I called and he said busy and I should remember I owed him. I still said no problem let me just know the breakdown so I know whats left or not. But by weekend kayode still didn't send anything.

Now according to kayode, driver remits monday evenings, he makes calculations and sends money to partners on Tuesdays. So by Tuesday I was hopeful I'll get a call this time.

In the evening around 6pm, I got a call from the driver and the news was he had an accident. While reversing he bashed into another car at lekki. Matters escalated and the car was in the police station. I asked since when he said on Sunday 21st. I asked if kayode was informed he said yes, on Monday. He said he was trying to handle the matter quietly but since it'll involve the insurance company to fix he decided to call me. He also told me he made 80k+ and gave Kayode 60,000 and he bought 7k full tank and 4k extra in keg. After his call I called Kayode and without blaming him for not telling me as per the contract I asked what he was doing to resolve it. He said he would call the other car owner and negotiate for car to leave station for repairs. I said ok no problem. I immediately called the insurance company (Axa Mansard) and with no hesitation the very nice lady (Taiwo who I also got from Mr Reliable Gazzuzz) said no problems, I should provide pictures of both cars, police report and repair estimates and that in a few days it'll be done. I smiled and thanked God for insurance.

Next morning Wednesday around 10am I called Kayode to ask how far, he said he had stuffs to do and will find time later in the afternoon to see the third party and apologize and issue a post dated check and avoid the police. This is a matter already at the Police Station.

He said he just got to know on Tuesday and I told him I didn't care and all I wanted was the car out ASAP. (All this while I was speaking calmly and he's the type that when he's speaking he wants you to take his opinion but when you speak he'll keep interrupting and press his opinion whenever there's a problem.)

He said I was blaming him and he got angry and told me if I don't want to "LISTEN" to him I should go and get the car out myself. I ended the call.

For a car that's been at the police station going to 4 days Kayode still has stuffs to do and my car was not important enough.

I called the driver and asked for the third party number. I called and he said we could meet at the station since he was close and that the police were even asking for the car owner to confirm insurance. I left my office immediately, went home to get all original papers and insurance certificate, I called the driver and asked him to join us so we resolved everything. I took an UBER and after 30mins on trip I called the driver only for him to tell me Kayode asked him not to come. I tried everything to explain to him the importance of him being there to witness any discussion but still he was adamant about coming.

Now my fire was burning very bad.


I got to the Lekki station where the car was and the police woman in charge told me the other guy had waited almost 2 hrs but left minutes before I arrived. The police further asked for the driver and I said he was on his way that we should start processing any thing.

She clearly refused and said all parties involved must be present to confirm who is who. So I was stuck. I tried to call the driver and after very many tries he didn't pick. The police also called and he didn't pick up. I called the third party and he said once the driver comes I should let him know and he'll return.

At this point I had to narrate this story to the police lady who asked for Kayode's number and called him. In my presence she asked kayode to come over so everything can be resolved amicably. Kayode bluntly refused and said whenever he has chance he'll come. According to the police lady she said Kayode was arrogant and rude and I noticed her say kayode should chill since she was the one calling with her own credit he had no right to shout at her or refuse her talking. Kayode kept saying if he's to come it'll be later in the evening that he was busy. The lady was shocked and said is he expecting the 2 car owners to wait all day till evening when he has chance.

She referred me to the case section and the DCO asked an officer to follow us to the Kayode's office there in Lekki. We got there in pretence as clients for the secretary and as expected Kayode wasn't there. I was told by the police to file a different case against him at the ilupeju station close to Kayode's usually location for defrauding. So I left.

On my way I called Mr Reliable Gazzuzz and narrated my situation he asked me to calm down and give him chance to speak to kayode.

Few minutes later Kayode called me and stupidly said the reason he asked the driver to wait was because driver didn't have transport fare and he was to send him money but was busy. That he'll send soon. I said no problem so I faced home. By the time I got home around 5pm the driver called and was apologizing that he didn't have cash and also went to the hospital for treatment and that's why he didn't pick. I said no problem, call the other party and schedule a meeting time and inform me so we all settle the matter.

Next day Thursday I called the driver and he said the other guy agreed to Friday.

Friday morning around 9am I called the driver and he said he was on his way to the station and the other guy said to meet by 11am. I quickly got dressed and called Kayode and he said the driver told him the night before and he'll be leaving home soon that he'll pick me up at my office so we can go together. I told him driver was on his way there so I'll wait. By 10:30, kayode said he's almost at my place. I called the driver and to my surprise he said Kayode asked him to wait at his ilupeju location so we could all go together.

11am I called Kayode and he said he's close. Called driver and he said no sign of kayode. I called the other guy and acted like I didn't know there was a fixed time. He said he was at the station and waiting for the driver who he agreed to meet. So to buy time I said I was coming and he should please wait.

11:30am no sign of kayode so I called an UBER and left. I called the driver and told him to inform kayode I will go ahead amd they should meet me there. Getting close to the station I called Kayode and he said he had to handle certain things but will be leaving soon. When I got to the station I met the Gentleman waiting in the heat. He obviously wasn't happy and asked for the driver. I said they were coming. After a few minutes I called Kayode and he said they were coming, further said he didn't want anything to do with police and I said not a problem. We can speak with the guy outside and the driver and I can go in resolve the issue and be gone. For him coming is just to assist the driver incase he needs to pay money to the police or make negotiations or stand as his guarantor.

After 1 hour no sign of kayode nor the driver and the other guy vexing and me consoling. Driver stopped picking his calls.

I decided to plead with the police and ask if anything else can be done, I wrote a statement and she sent to the DPO. The DPO gave the condition that I first fix the other guys car and mine remains till its done.

Till now, kayode hasn't called, driver hasn't called.

This is someone who claims to run a Fleet Management Company. No regard for Partner, No remorse whatsoever.

My car still seats at the Police Station pending the quote from the other guy who says his car was bought brand new and as it's still under warranty can't give it to any mechanic except the car manufacturer. Who he says will get repair quote out by Monday.

That's the current situation and he's here still advertising for more cars to collect and damage while ripping off partners and favoring drivers.

Note I have call records on the Wednesday and yesterday Friday between kayode and I. I have tried attaching but doesn't seem to load.

AngelicBeing:
If you scroll through my profile, you will see were l said l will engage both of them, l and my business partner planned to float a minimum of 24 vehicles in Nigeria via Uber, my partner is my class mate during my studentship in North America years ago, I convinced him that the business is profitable, I even suggested Peugeot 407 to him based on what the 2 guy's in question have been saying here, both of us were supposed to contribute 50percent each for the entire business, he is not a Nigerian but I have done several businesses with him, just imagine the drama l would have faced if I had given vehicles to this guy's, I also want to thank my lawyer on here, he advised me to wait and see how it goes on here, l wanted him to post now but he said he prefers to remain anonymous, he is on this thread, I am happy to read everything on here, l have zeroed my mind for Dubai for the Uber business, there are few sincere guys here but what happened here is an eye opener, I even told my partner to read this thread and we have both concluded to rather invest in Dubai were they have better regulations, good roads and more government supervision than what is obtained in Nigeria, once we start in Dubai, l will post everything here, l am disappointed at the way both of them are responding here, l feel for the car owner

Bros have not even talked...we are not begging for cars o, terms and conditions applied... I have a misunderstanding with a client...he has his faults, I have mine, we have resolved...challenges make me better, we all make mistakes... THIS IS PURE BUSINESS NOT A FAVOUR, I never promised a smooth journey... Give ur 24 cars to drivers it doesn't stop my progress... I have meet two guys in Lagos who wanna put 40 cars at once we disagreed because of my terms and conditions... I walked away. ITS A BIG MARKET I CANT HAVE IT ALL, I HAVE PLANS TO BUY 50 TO 100 CARS INTO THE FLEET THIS YEAR

Narrative must change

.
thanks for your clarification @ Ogunvic41
#Zion.

Anytime bro, call me I will put u thru... U will start making 100k to 150 weekly IF U ARE READY TO WORK

GAZZUZZ:
its the most sensitive car on the fleet

Alternator failure is what caused this.

Peugeot 407 have a minimum threshold of 11.9v, you cannot even managed car for 30mins if alternator fails.

It was back on the road next morning.

I still condemn peugeot cars.

Have never had issues, with my alternator sir, car will be one year next month on uber/taxify... Remember I got it Nigerian used...I was in ur workshop January 2017 to seek advice on Peugeot 407, u told me not to buy, but I never listen...PEUGEOT 407 IS THE BEST THING THAT HAPPEN TO ME...the car has made millions for me...
WE KEEP LAGOS MOVING...

suco01:
can sm1 thats not familiar with all lagos roads do this uber/taxify

Very well, I have trained guys that fall in that category... I moved to Lagos 2014...I drove on uber/taxify 2017...most of us started without knowing several places...95% of the riders know where they are going, google map is ur friend...
LETS KEEP LAGOS MOVING...

Its Friday night...
WE KEEP LAGOS MOVING...

GAZZUZZ:
24hour search and rescue support for every vehicle on the fleet, when assesment reveals it is quicker/more efficient to fix vehicle in workshop, it gets towed immediately. Reduced downtime, saving vehicle from roadside mechanics.

Let's change the way your investment is managed, let's change the narrative.

Peugeot 407? THE CAR U ONCE CONDEMNED...
SMH

Donmatlock:
So guys, how much would I make weekly if I give a car to a driver? Kindly assist me with real scenerios. I i tend getting a lone from a family member to do this business. How much can I pay monthly for the loan. And how long will it take me to repay.

Thanks.

Call me 08032800453, will advice u

ewebiodun:
I really feel requests has been slow on uber this January. I think taxify is having a bigger market share as at now.
Guys what do u think?

Someone has made 97k so far...he is still driving

Coolbenzino:
I'm still on a lockdown. Unable to go online due to drivers license upload. I don't understand. Perhaps uber didn't expect that drivers license dey expire. I paid additional 5k so as to facilitate the process of a new one. Now what

Go to uber office, SIMPLE!

slamstanlee:
lemee recommended 3 phones for you.
Huawei p8
Galaxy s6/s6edge
Gionee S6s
Thank me later

Expensive phones...infinix hot 5 lite 32k

pooozeee:
See my guy the best way out of this is : open Google map at the background leave it to run then lunch ur uber app, when asked for navigation, choose google map simple logic

GOD BLESS UR INTELLIGENCE SIR... I rarely have failed trip or GPS issues

agbonda:
Wats d essence of 25% Uber is collecting?

Do they expect driver/partner to do their job for them?

If you can’t verify your rider, pay the driver simple

I think Uber needs to be taken up on this b4 drivers will be loosing hell of money

Uber link drivers up with riders...charge is 25% we can't do anything about this...tnx to TAXIFY they make the market competitive, no more monopoly, we have alternatives,as a wise driver be on both platform (UBER AND TAXIFY)...
WORK SMART...

pooozeee:
OK no problem, once beaten twice shy, hence forth, I will begin to ask my riders CARD TRIP OR CASH TRIP if it is card trip, no problem I will embark on the journey, but if it is a card trip, will say sorry request for another uber driver, simple, I will just cancel

Noooo, uber will block u for excessive cancellation, don't let ur cancelation rate exceed 25% just be careful and don't arrange trips, carry riders randomly...
Call me for more enlightenment 08032800453

Romeo3:
rider used fake credit card. Uber couldn't charge from the card.

Not just fake credit or debit cards STOLEN cards are used on uber, unilag people and others...
Uber faced a lot of claim from several financial institutions... I fear Lagos people

Zionist26:
@ ogunvic41
Please do u have any Airtel line I can reach u through??
What's your opinion about using a Toyota Prius.??
Thanks

08032800453, Prius very good if u are driving it yourself, but if u are giving to a driver! DONT TRY IT

pooozeee:
@ogunvic41
If my internet connection suddenly goes off for 10mins during a trip with uber, what will happen ? Will it av any effect such as reduction in money or will some distance covered during the 10mins outage be affected ?

U will likely have a failed trip... Unless u run google map on the background.. I use spectranet and I back it up with mtn...

Romeo3:
lol.

Wrong hypothesis.

If you remove danfo from the roads, there will be crisis. Unless you are removing 1000 danfo buses, and replacing them with 1000 buses of the same capacity, and even at that, you only maintained status quo. Nothing new.

Your hypothesis may be logical if you are removing the total danfo buses in lagos and replacing them with double or almost double of what they used to be.... until that happens, no shaking.

That's my boss

dru23:
So just you with about 10 drivers manage to frustrate at least over 10k drivers and riders. And at the same time thought a multi billion dollar company a lesson

Uber Nigeria doesn't have a building of their own, the office is rented stop comparing UBER NIGERIA with uber global... U are the greatest fool for doing that...ask any driver, partner and rider what uber Nigeria faced last year when they reduced fare, a lot of partners pulled out, they sold their beautiful cars, a lot of riders deleted their apps, most drivers moved to taxify... U KNOW NOTHING STOP QUOTING MY POST.

jarkbauer:
You will be stupid to argue with facts.
Ist more cars does not translate to more riders. The number of cars has nothing to do with people who are using Uber.
If the total monies spent by riders in a week is 100 million and you have x or 1000 drivers the average drivers can make is 100k. so if some make 150k others will definitely make less than 100k. if all of them make 150k then the monies they make is from runs not from riders.

Abi you are into Uberplusplus?

OK sir

entparrot:
This was the reason ur account with Uber was deactivated.

you thought Uber a lesson by frustrating riders, but Uber remain number one.

You frustrate owners by using their cars and dumping without paying couple of weeks payment and you are still justifying ur actions by claiming u taught them lesson.

Drivers are important, but that shouldn't justify drivers cheats and greed.

Smile
