I connect both drivers here on nairaland. They were posting regularly about Sienna between 2016/2017.

See i have been in transport business since 2014, started with golf 3 on ogudu road, then join uber 2016, drove uber for 2months, b4 i decide to settle with investing with uber.

I started with uber when rent was 40k above, and I'm still here.

Gentlelife50 has worked under me in 2018 when he newly joined uber without knowing he was working 4 me.

Felicity0001 has applied to drive 4 me, via uber fleet match after filling my form, i make my research and discovered who he was then i start doing him turn turn, until he become frustrated.

Godswill10 if u know that business that raise u 2million to buy Sienna, dedicate more to it.

There is no such thing as side hustle in transport business, transport business is more like snake eat snake, most drivers are vampires, looking 4 who they will destroy to enrich themselves.
We are almost I the same page now bro. The transportation biz is best invested on with active participation by the car owner.
I wish you more god luck as you aspire to invest more in the biz. May good Lord also send vampires away from our sides.

I import sienna 4 sale and one driver canvass me into putting it for interstate for 40k weekly.

I decide to give it a try, within 3months of doing the business i regret my decision.

40k weekly 4 sienna sound so good, when u calculate it weekly to one year.

but the repairs will frustrate u, brake pad will be change every 2 weeks, oil every 2 weeks, tie rod, ball joints, tires u will have to keep changing, and u wont be able to save from the 40k
Thought NL uber drivers are the problems.

You dont blame an animal that attacks you when you encroach their territory.
But wild animals like snake that encroach human's territories should be spared or given free pass to harm people around?

Nigerians will always compare apples and oranges in all they do! Cows and chickens are bred in commercial numbers so their population is never in danger of extinction! These animals in the wild are already battling with death right from birth from other predators...most of the animals born in the wild don’t make it to adulthood because of predators..now man comes in and kills the few that reach adulthood! Must you fvckers eat everything that moves?
Man has been killing these snakes since inception and still hasn't gone extinct, your theory doesnt hold any water.

Luiz was Chelsea's best defender on his last season with them. He would still have been their best defender or worst been in their first 11 if he was still there till now. Would Rudiger have benched him?

Where is the attack? check from this page to back 10 pages and see if people are still posting cars for rent.

The ones that truly attacked me u applaud them, but given a driver that has been searching 4 car since March to quit searching here and look elsewhere is now attack.

Old members that have up to 10 cars are no more coming here to look 4 driver's.

90% owners avoid nairaland drivers, they are greedy and manipulative
Wake up to the reality that many have counted their losses and sold their cars. The days of 30/35k have gone. Any investor that can't do with 25k should drive his cars or sell them. It Isn't the driver's nor car owner's fault, the fares are low now and coupled with traffic. Expecting 35k remittance soon is only a wishful thinking which will end in tears. You can't expect drivers to pay you from their pockets so as to keep up with your 35k.

My advice for You is to adjust your business strategy; if you love earning from ehailing so badly, take to the streets and drive your car yourself, stop investing millions on tokunbo cars for this job again and expecting unrealistic earnings so as to recoup your investment. This ehailing job is vastly becoming owner driver's job. No matter how vociferous you're about 35k, you can only get that in a dream, even if any driver agrees to that, he will fail you.

Again I ask, have you also sought for and found better drivers OFF nairaland who are already paying you 35k? Since nairaland drivers are the problems.

90% of uber connect is online.

2/3 years ago, partners come here to post about looking 4 drivers, but since most partners here has been bully off nairaland, they find alternative.

Most of the drivers here are like those lazy papa in taxi parks, they sit at park and discourage younger generations.

Look at most of them like Felicity0001 Gentlelife50, they are all above 40, life has hit them so hard, that dey r looking 4 owner's they will take advantage of.

Honestly, u will struggle to get a car here, most owners don't want to associate with drivers from this forum.
Why this unnecessary attack on personalities? Because people disagreed with your 35k weekly remittance?
I advise you take to the streets and drive your car or source for the drivers OFF Nairaland that will remit even 50k weekly.

Or May I ask, have you found drivers OFF nairaland who are remitting 35k already?

Olayetan:
Yeah
Hands-on experience means I've been doing the job rather than making a research on it so i know 30k is doable.
My only concern is the total package for the car, does it worth sacrificing for.
3m is too much for a big daddy. The highest for a big daddy should be 2.5m or even less.

I reserve my coment on 30k 'doability'. If you believe, you can achieve (I'm trying to be Fela Durotoye) grin
Celebrities › Re: Tacha Is The Reason Behind Bbnaija Style Of Nomination And Eviction by peeps4u: 12:37pm On Aug 03, 2020
Stanweezy:
Recall during BBNaija 2019 show, all housemates hated Tacha to the extent she appears on eviction every week, but at the end viewers will save her from eviction.

She became so confident that she proclaimed herself the invisible with the slogan "no leave no transfer"

To me I believed biggie brought this method to allow viewers make their choice before the house unlike the other way round it was done previously.

What's your take on this and drop your opinion and what you think could be the reason behind the new format.

This thread is for BBNaija fans, please ignore the thread if you are not a fan of the reality program.
No, it is more like it is targeted at weak contestants who often liken to stay unnoticed and escape nomination till last week of the show.

This New method could still have not seen a strong HM like Tacha evicted because she wouldnt have been among the 4 HMs with least votes which HMs will then have to vote out.

It is More of disallowing weak HMs escaping nomination

Appreciation post


Guys kindly help say a word of prayer to my Madam....

She is a very private person, she is on Nairaland and I believe she might be following this group because she picked my number from here when I was looking for HP

My baby boy (11month old) was very ill, started since Friday but got worse over night...we took him to the hospital and after some test and diagnosis..I was asked to make a payment of 150k..... I was down and swept every where and was able to raise 50k plus..after several calls to some friends and close family that I can approach...the outcome was still negative...so summoned my mind to call my partner for a loan of 100k to be paid in installment with my weekly remittance. Lo and behold my people my madam and hubby rather gifted me 50k...

Words can't express how grateful I felt....

I quickly deposited 100k to balance up before my boy is discharged ....

Hitting the road to keep the hustle going

Mrs B God will surprise you and your family with blessings and favour now and forever.
Mrs B, may God bless you richly and be gracious unto you.

Am new into this ehailing(driver)....a car owners want to give his car for 10k per day, how's feasible is this?...based in Port Harcourt....
Please experience drivers is this a good offer?
LOL, 10k per day and everyone hasn't turned to drivers by now?

Plz neglect that man, he will frustrate you even if he agrees to lower remittance. He's obviously a greedy fellow and probably doesn't even have the idea of the biz he's venturing into.

1. I rate it 8/10, would have given it 10/10 if it was a civic with smaller engine.

2. I use it full time and it has never let me down.

3. Yes, I will recommend it any day anytime (provided you are buying it toks or well maintained Naija use)

4. My experience with EOD has been a bitter sweet one. I’ve owned an EOD that turned out to be a nightmare (Naija used), but this particular one I’m using currently is bae. The driving experience is lovely, AC is excellent. No engine/transmission/ac repair work since 4years of entering Nigeria.

5. I use Tokunbo ball joint. OEM is expensive, Part sellers will try to sell you same thing for different prices. You will hear this one Na original, this one no too strong but e go last, NA LIE. The only time I tried to use the China ball joint I suffered for it.

Sometime ago I traveled leaving the car behind, upon my return I told my babe to give the security guy the car key so he can wash it before I get back. He decided to drive the car to show off to his friends around the neighborhood, on his way back to the house he had an accident with the car. The impact affected the right ball joint, absorber and linkage. We couldn’t get toks ball joint around so we resulted to using the China one, less than two months after the ball joint pulled out at VGC exit gate around 7pm cry cry

Again at that time of the day, and location, only new will suffice, bought one around and replaced. A week later I changed it to Toks.
That silly act by my security guy made me loose my stock absorber, linkage and ball joint.

Generally Honda is a good brand. Just get yourself a good unit (Tokunbo or sound Naija used), stick to the recommended oil especially the gear oil and all will be well.
Thanks for this response.
Honda accord 03-05 and civic 03-05 are my ideal vehicles when I say 800k is my recommended max investment for now. 800k will get a good naija used of either of them.

Girls these days fear me sha. My first rider on Friday, female, was on phone with her friend from sky mall to presken oniru. She was telling her friend about the previous night, how she wasted from drinking skushis and small stout mixture. Already making plans of how she will repeat same that day.

Carried one this morning before 9am from Ilasan, the moment she sat down, she said please I need 5h from you I need to get condom on the way, you will stop for me to buy it anywhere we see Aboki.

Where is the insult?

That he has hustled since 2002 and still a driver on rental is not insult, if he feel is easy he should go and make money and invest in uber.

I will say it again, once church open Rental should increase from current 25k weekly.
LOL, it is one thing to demand for 30/35k, it is another thing if it is attainable with drivers. New drivers desperately looking for cars will even accept 40k but it always doesnt end well.
I will advise again, drive the car yourself or sell it if 25k is too low. This job don cast and mostly suitable for owner drivers, u can't force drivers to deliver what's not deliverable, no matter how badly you clamour for 35k.
Which drivers will deliver 35k weekly again? No old driver will even accept 30k, only new drivers accept such and they mostly always fail.

Good luck.

I think it's okay for private schools if the fees is for students in boarding house only. But public secondary school should try and charge less.
Why is it okay for boarding house students and not public school students? Because boarding student's parents owe govt or dont pay taxes or public school students are immune to covid?

Alot of drivers looking for cars, some are calling in with this present situation, begging to get a car for 27/28k.

I pity owner's who give out their cars for 20k, in couple of months you will return all that money for fixing.

Spare parts this days are very expensive.
Still, this doesn't make 30 or 35k feasible now. The job is best suited for the owner drivers. Anyone owner looking for a driver to remit 30 or 35k this period is simply jonzing.

I wont advise car owners to put out their cars for 20k; neither is the 30/35k possible now, I advise owners keep or sell their cars if 20-25k is too low for them.

Introducing Polytron MTC

Am going to be comparing engine treated with Polytron MTC with engine without Polytron MTC.
Most cars in Nigeria are service with mineral oils and some even lesser quality oil. The visible evidence of Engine without Polytron Treatment is excessive damaging sludge formation due to excessive misuse of non recommended oil and non compliant servicing procedure.
New Polytron MTC technology (Micro Lubrication of Metal Surfaces) was developed to reduce the tear and wear of Engine Metal components by 95%, thus prevent Engines from untimely death and also save you from expensive engine part Replacement or repairs and frequent break downs.

Just like it is once quoted here "Preventive maintenance better than Corrective Maintenance".

Polytron MTC can be apply to all Gasoline and Diesel Engines.

Bissaka has been the most consistent full back in the EPL for the past two seasons, coupled with his young age. The same can't be said for Osimhen. At best I would say he has unfulfilled potential.
See argument. You're using his present form in ManU to justify his purchase cost. Hasn't Osimehn also been consistent bothebin national teams and clubs for some years now? And if you could use Bissaka's form in last 2 seasons he's been in Manu to justify his value, have you foreseen that Osimehn wouldn't also be consistent in Napoli?

It is not your duty to fix a car you are renting. If the car is not okay for e-hailing and weekly remittance the same hour you pick it up, then don't bother yourself at all.

Let me use two of my previous partners as examples. I remember one gave me #5,000 cash to buy fuel in the car to start off. The other was a fleet Management company. The day I went to pick the car, the fuel tank was full, plus I had two free days to drive and report any faults before I started remitting.
Good old days

Nope don’t make it seem like he’s desperate. It’s this kind of attitude that makes the elite treat the commoners the way they do. He should have some dignity and self respect. How can you advise him to fix what he had no knowledge of?

I have no doubt that if he agrees, the partner will frustrate him further.
You're right bro.

I only advised him to take the offer if only he's sure no other faults with the car.

Since he doesn't know if the car has other faults, it is logical he lets go of the car..

Your opinion is needed please....
You have been looking for a car for a while now so I advise you take it. The 25k will simply be your remittance for the first week.

I just hope there are no other hidden faults with the car, that's my major concern, not the money.

Stop comparing abroad people with 9ja. We always get what we deserve in this country and people abroad gets what ever they want.

The day we all wake up to knowing what we really want as a people in Nigeria we shall rise up and fight for it but for now let us all enjoy the way things are.

I have seen the white in the �� carry blackcards protesting against low fares, rude riders inbthe system, axing of drivers due to rating, injustice and all sort but never for once have I seen the people of nigeria protest against a thing in this country.

Social media noise or emails won't do anything and has never done anything... Like I said, we deserve what we get and until we know what we want then we would get what ever we want.
Nigerians and protest are like parallel lines that can never meet. Most protests we do are polictally sponsored ones. We are taking shit from govt/politicians, also from uber/bolt.
BRT, Nig Railway, DSTV, Sometimes have all increased their charges, there is stamp duty on house rent, things are getting more expensive but bolt/uber aren't only keeping the fares constant but planning to slash it again. They will bring in economy class and nothing will happen, there wont be protest, we move on..............
