1daboi: ermm, this case has been analyzed and the council have seen beyond reasonable doubt that the driver is innocent of all the accusations. This honourable Court have found coker's sister guilty but because of her age, she's forgiven. But Coker007 will be held responsible for wasting this honourable court's time. Also will be held responsible if anything happens to the gentle pilot. By the power invested in me(if correct), this case is hereby dismissed and the driver acquired of all charges. Pope191, sprinkle holy water � on the accused. Court!!!! In d absence of holy water... shall we?

coker007: A lot of you here are trying to be logical which is good ....... I understand. Lemme clear up something first
1. If you know beckley estate you'd know agbe road and if you know agbe road you'd know you wouldn't have to pass express or iju. Even if you don't know agbe road, Google map wouldn't lead you straight down the express it would divert you towards agbado ijaiye road or fadina coker or beckley estate even.
2. She wasn't the one that ordered the ride her friend did if not i wouldn't have come here asking for his number (the friends number hasn't been going through)
3. She be 17 when you were 17 na all the road you know for lagos?.....you know where you're coming from and you know where you're going to is different from you know the road to where you're going to.... you follow?
4. And the case of being locked outside i just passed beckley estate around past 11 on Tuesday soooo..... Before you'd say there are two phases i dropped someone at phase 2
5. No one said he didn't do his job, but then he decided to do his job with greed too much greed infact..... If he knew beckley closed gate at 9 he wouldn't be going through iju for any reason cuz he'd know there's hold up there g-map would let you know that i mean trip started since 5:30 c'mon?!!!
If you feel this type of thing is too random and irrelevant for you kindly skip. I'm just being defensive of my sister and i want to know what he extorted her for that's why i asked for his details because the thing they pain me and i no too like to dey write epistle. If you have info kindly email ☺ Boss I can feel your pains, but can't tell who is right or wrong. I can only plead with you to let go, it's a brand new day, whatever you feel in you (either you are right or wrong), let providence be the judge.... you can as well caution your sis, over late night outing (this ain't my business & Lagos traffic can b unpredictable).

davit: Guys, if you're driving on a road demarcated with two yellow lines in the middle, for example, Awolowo rd in Ikoyi or Bode Thomas street in Surulere, please never you overtake another car by crossing the yellow lines, as it will be tantamount to wrongful overtaking and subsequently counted as driving one-way if you're caught by LASTMA or police. If you want to overtake a slow moving vehicle in front of you, try as much as possible to keep to your own side of the line without crossing it. Lagos State officials are cashing out on violators when caught. Always lookout for these little traps and save yourself money you would have used in bailing your car out of their hands.
Copied No more overtaking, white, yellow, green or indigo lines... Patient is the key |

Am still with those guys that own the Range sport.
Infact, those despatch riders are another set of demons we have on the road. The way they ride recklessly is so alarming.
Could you believe that the despatch man eventually ran away but his foolishness made him left his bag containing his ID card and other traceable evidences.
We have been to his outsourcer where we were now referred to the courier coy in ikeja he primarily work with. The despatch landed himself a damages of 250k.[/quote]
Landed himself a damage of 250k? Someone that is already at Benin-Ore Rd... I knew the guy will run, the kind of beating he received from the guy, but the Rover guy was merciful, even as he groan deeply in pains, I could feel the hot blood venting from his vain, he would have gift the rider 100k, than the agony and pains he put on him this morning. He displayed few minutes of madness and the rider can't say a word, cos he was clearly at fault. I don't know how these ppl sleep at night wit the evil they do to others during the day(one once pull my bumper in traffic, look back, saw d damage and zoom off) and the way they will pulled over to support their own is something else. I forgive easily, cos it's my religion, but for dispatch rider's? I feel indifferent.
That's d conyon in blue, d guy gave him over distance for him not to weight his options.

The elantra you want to sell for 1.3, if I offer u 1.2/1.1, won't you accept it? Then what's the big deal if I narrow a car of 1.4 price tag on jiji to 1.2m or you just feel you can hold on to this point to make mountain out of mole hill.

dru23: This your epistle long no be small I don't even know where to start..... Make I start with the most obvious statement ... You stated a tokunbo civic can land 1.2m .. You want make they steal am give u? .... Another statement you made .. Elantra is hard to sell etc that the seller will be begging the owner to come and buy etc .. Parts are hard to find etc .. You lost me on that one I.. Elantra was my very first car I used on uber.. I never had issues looking for parts etc and till today elantra is still very popular for uber..
The last tokunbo elantra I sold about almost two years ago .. I bought from a private owner for $700 load it inside container for $1200 and sold it less than two weeks and still made small profit ...
Mind you When you load a car inside container it affects your profit margin .. I no get time to break it down for you... Now I no fit get elantra that same price anymore . it is expensive, it is almost like buying corolla ... So elantra are still very popular among uber drivers and private users alike.......
The only way I will use elantra again is if uber restructure their business model and increase fare and make their services more premium etc .. Trust me na elantra I go use sharp sharp......
For now elantra 2007 upwards is too classy for uber unless uber is offering premium services. Corolla is ok for uber work due to its non executive looking shape .. I will rather have an elantra of the same year of a corolla pick me up for am important event than a corolla .. There is nothing wrong with a Corolla , I agree it is stronger than an elantra .. But the car is just too local and outdated for me ....... I will even take a 2021 Elantra of the same year over a corolla ...
Uber is no more a luxury ride anymore.. As such you have to adjust accordingly I said it in the past. If you are buying tokunbo corolla , camry , vibe , matrix for ehalling you are not only wasting ur time and money But you are hustling backwards, whether civic get leg room for back or not ..uber is no more premium services anymore .. Uber cars should get you from point A to point B in comfort and safety.. Uber cars are not meant to be carry loads of people up and down .... All those riders that u said will cancel a ride because of type of car etc .. They are not serious at all .. When is time for them to pay money na story and most can't afford premium services. And that is why uber reduce their car age requirement from 2007 down to 03 .......make I drop Mic .... I need to teach you few things about business bro .. Boss abeg don't over get high on your supply, what I wrote there is clear enough and you are not the only cars supplier biko, I obviously won't bring private matter to public (talking about what we here thinks). When you say enough folks still uses Elantra for Uber, e b like say you they follow them park under tree for chevron, abi you they follow them sleep in front of farmcity, you can rehearse the role of Arnold behind your keyboard, but me will offer you reality. I touched almost everything you wrote here, but since you want to cherry pick and quick to conclude, it all becomes watery and sense of weak emotions for me. About teaching me business? what works for you may not work for me. Let me narrow down to you and Felicity001, no gesture of offence please... how many months did you guys worked as partner? how much did he bring to the table? How much did you use to fix the car when the going was good and after? Business 101 Please no cherry picking. |

dru23: It shows you have no clue of what u are saying.. After Corolla Hyundai elantra is the next big choice for ehailing. Parts are very easy to get .. The elantra engine bay is not too tight to work around with......
Have been doing uber for 4years plus.. Elantra USA spec 2.0liter was my first choice of cars on the platform.. The car was very ok strong and fuel consumption was good as any 1.7 liter engine car .. I had about 6 of them the a/c system was well built , the transmission was impressively built strong.. I was so impress with the Elantra that I bought 1 for private use ....... The car was too simple to fix not a complicated car ......
Elantra Resale value.... I never had issues selling them at all .... Since I took good care of the cars I had up selling them for nothing less than 1m ..... It didnt take me long to sell at all ....
I have basically sold all my elantra on my fleet except for 1 that I will be putting up for sale soon.. Never had issues selling those cars .. I don't like to keep cars for more than two years on ehailing, even though I have kept some for longer ......
Unfortunately tokunbo elantra USA spec 07 to 10 are very expensive at the auction.. They are built to compete with Corolla.. And they are 1 of the top selling cars in the USA on that category etc ... And I knew it will be expensive down the line especially if am buying them tokunbo for ehailing. This is why I switch over to the Civic 03 to 05 ...
When it comes Cars that are use on the platform .. It boils down to maintainence of the car ...... I have seen a 2010 Corolla that the body was so banged up and looking unkempt dirty etc that I wouldn't want to get inside o.. .
So with offline trip all it matters the condition of the car and good shape the car is in ..just because it is a Corolla that has been rough up banged up etc will not make me enter ,just because na Corolla... 90% of ur assement makes no sense or.has no substance at all ..it shows you have no idea of what u are saying......
Than to top it up .. You stated tokunbo civic goes for 1.2m naira with these currant exchange rate . Abi na dead tokunbo you talking about for 1.2m even dead tokunbo go pass 1.2m ......let me break it down for you below..... Honda Civic tokunbo 2003 to 2005 Assuming clean title and accident free....
Budget $2k Shipping cost $ 920 , some shipping agent will charge $1k ...
Towing to the Port.. Depending on location anywhere from $150 to max $500.
Clearing from the Port 470k naira ..
If you buy the car at the lowest calculation below .. Exchange rate black market now is 480 Buying.. $ 1k Shipping..$920 Towing to port $ 150 Clearing from the Port... 470k naira ...
So I use exchange rate of 460 for my total landing cost.. Which came to 1.422200m naira..
For the fact that I use 460 instead of 480 .. Landing cost is above 1.2m that you were spewing out ... this my landing cost is not even guaranteed .. 1.6m should be the minimum landing cost...... See yourself now ... I shake my head at times .. Just spewing total nonsense up and down Oga Dru I just want to let you know that an attack on the Pope is an attack on every Oven world wide. Seriously you won't like to go one on one with me on this issue, because you obviously will b found dumb with the questions I'll throw at you. As you said I don't have knowledge of what I am saying, I hope you've read through the place Kanu Nwankwo the G.O.A.T and I talk it out, about me using my experience when I was trying to get one as standard. Inbtw that I've seen toks for 1.4 on jiji, probably if priced, one maybe able to arrive at 1.3m, what's the difference in + or -? Oh! Is a dead car, you've already test drive it abi? and it's not possible according to your analysis. You need to wake up, dust that dirt of your shoulder, folks sell cars for different reasons, some even use it to launder money, some just need to get ride off the old stocks to clear new and better cars, they won't be sitting on 100 to 200k profits, when they have better fish to catch. On Hyundai? I generalise it and you singled one out of it, how wise is that? But I'll still pick the choice you flow with. Going back to 3 yrs ago, this same car was almost flooding everywhere with 407, what happened to them today that made Corolla and Matrix still gaining egde among them? I don't know... You said it's because of high cost you stopped using them. Bros high cost or low cost, once a tool is not feasible for business, simple means it's not good for such business, forget the pampering biko. You said you sold your Elantra easily, yet Nigeria used cars are not worthy to buy, the buyers must have been very stu.pid, craz.y, senseless and fooli.sh to have put their foots in such buy I guess. Oh! I forget, you always maintain your cars. Please how much did it cost you to put the cars to work? How much did you sell them? I leave that to your faith. But one thing I just Want you to know, that selling is easy if price is right, even our villain ford, is someone's hero and probably if they can maintain it well, all will b well. Let me burst your bubble, I cant survive with heaping an idol that I'll have to drop oil on his head every 1a.m, the traffic in Lagos can b crazy, one day I'll get stuck and that nigga goan find me and wipe nonsense of my life, the beginning of a man's fall I guess... meaning, in this country, you can't be 100% right on maintenance, everything is fighting you (from filling stations, oil distributors to the ones that you will think they change Mobile 1 to XHP). On getting an offline trip. I once picked a rider that said her friend cancels the rider the moment she notice is not Corolla or Camry, that's odd if you ask me, but who is going to tell her? For the men, they hardly care about the car, but for these our wives? You just can't see enough of them, when I was using Hyundai, one once told me she was happy about another type of car outside the norm. So it's an influx of back and forth, but with corrola/camry assurance cover you. Need you know that on Civic, most people sitting at the back find it difficult to stretch legs, Even your boy (sorry! Man) Felicity001 is looking for car and he's not putting Civic as option, I believe say e get reason. Let's narrow down to business: You said, you sold your used cars above 1m, for want of understanding. Please can you knowledgeable buy any car used on uber for a year and months or 2 years above 1m? Can you advise anyone you know to buy such? What's the sense in buying a car for 1.6m in the name of civic, register it and incur more cost, only for them to b pricing it 700k, 600k after a year? All these stu.pid marlians with no respect for cars. Chucmoore said he's spendin 300k to fix his car, give chilex8 that 300k, I'm sure he will add 100k to it and uber car is on it way to set  so you see what works for A may not work for B, but since he that is wearing the shoe knows where is pinching him the most, then damn perception and do what works for you. You invest, I invest and drive at least 4 days in a week, slept inside the car and start over the next day without bath, menh! Don't toy with the head I give, it's may pain, stress and regrets I'm giving out for free to save another person, and prep a better easy rolling ground for them. Note: I'm not saying Civic is not good, for a starter with low budget, it's the best option and he or she can built from there. Please know someone with G wagon and Camry no b mate for Lekki-epe express road, if you think say I they lie, ask Korope how they act when they notice the one in front of them. |

kanuisagoat: What can we do? The prices of cars these days is just so ridiculous especially Nigerian used cars.
That is why I find it surprising that the price of used civic has remained stagnant and this in my opinion has made it a very wrong choice for the job.
Come to think of it. When civic was selling at around 1.2m and corolla around 1.6/1.7 everyone said corolla was too costly and civic was just perfect . As of now that same civic now goes for that same 1.6m
Imagine buying a vehicle at 1.6m toks minus cost of registration and plenty other miscellaneous expenses only to end up elling it 800k naija used after 1 year. What kind of depreciation is that? One need to look well before leaping this period, I guess it's the power of dollar flexing on naira. |

Felicity001: One addiction about this Indriver is that you will never ever want to pay commission to Uber/Bolt again by going online.
But in the end, if I meet my daily target I'm ok.
Also, one key factor on Indriver is patient because your next trip can be 2hrs after the previous because of drivers like pope191 and chucsmoor's fastest fingers. Those guys are real hoodlums I've not driven on any other platform outside InDriver this year... I just think the drag in the business these days are the Olosho's that are yet to resume work fully, Clubs that are shut down and the working from home peeps. Imagine taking 4 to 6pm to get trip out of VI on a week day, I miss the good ole days, where once it's 5pm, that relief of work about to start will you bestow on one. |

I can't go and burn my finger.  It's a 2 way things, early bird, close on time, your location and position matters. Most time if I have 3 mins to arrive, I can take my chances and if it is 1.6 to 2.4 metres away, I don't put hope on such trip as the rider is going to see the closest driver's and even before the request drops on your phone, Shollywendy1 have pick up I want to service my car today and when I'm done, I on the app, Ard after 12 I saw a trip going to surulere from berger 2k, gave her ordinary 2200, she won't accept and we are like 5 drivers dragging, one broda among us just accept the trip.

BAZ001: After seeing plenty millions in Dec and post that you can net 20k soft job during weekends and I have plenty time and car staying idle na so, I activate my accounts and register on InDriver. Ready to hit the road fri - sun (must net 20k) Na so first gbagan gbagan na one babe 9min PU , 10 mins waiting outside for her trip na 14 mins, got to destination and ended trip, fare - 800naira. Rider : how much Me: 800 Rider : Account Me : what is account R: I mean ur account number Me: (in my head which kind waka be dis ooh) Me: from which bank R: zenith Me : okay let me give u my zenith no. R: omg you have every bank account? Me : I will get alert faster Alert landed and I repositioned.
Main reason of my Epistle na cos of InDriver. Na so I begin monitor request before I accept gbam another driver don accept.
For where na so I accept one fastest finger too. Rider fare - 1,850 me I suggested 2500k Rider accepted sharp sharp na so dem give me ride. That was when I checked destination on map 1hr 25min after ojodu Berger from Surulere and everywhere red for road. Chaii I don mess up PU - 15mins drive. Then timer began to warn me to call rider To cut story short I can’t cancel trip cos I slide “I’ve arrived”. Rider has been calling non stop APP says I can’t cancel cos I’ve left PU. The other option is to complain about rider. I dey house dey look app , app dey look me, still unable to cancel. No be ban I dey play with for 1st trip   Indriver is one stupid app, did I just say stupid? Yes! Like very stupid app, but you just have to learn how to manage it. You r lucky the rider picked you, after giving him or her 2500, drivers don't give price on Indriver again, unless you want to sleep on one spot, drivers like Tojahh, Felicity001 and Davit will not let you complete one trip. About the trip you are looking at now, just end it, next time if you want to pick a trip on Indriver be sure it's aim to go and not fastest finger pushed me. Even if you made a mistake of not calculating well, just cancel the trip, you have grace of cancelling 2wice/day and in the case of you arriving with the aim of cancelling  you know when its 6pm and Nigeria is about to go to sleep, that anthem sound you hear and you have to pulse wherever you are? That's same way Indriver cancellation works after sliding arrived, just stay at that point where u slide on the arrived for 5 mins, then cancel, even if it is in the middle of the road, cos the moment you drift away from that point or few metres, you will have to complete the trip. The most interesting part of this, the rider can't cancel from his/her end and your subsequent riders will see his/her comment about you  so boss go ahead and complete the trip, welcome back to the hustle. But nah back door you use enter sha, you didn't even loud your entrance |

He claimed to be involved in oil and gas, which was a cover up for his yahoo yahoo. We didn't know till he was busted. Most of these celebs do yahoo yahoo, male and female. This hatred for successful females come from ENVY. When a woman builds a house/buys a car, na "bottom power". But if its a man, then it's legit. Do you live with African China in his house? See, leave that thing. Only God knows what's up. But did you read where I said, I can't tell how he made his money? Good and bad are relative concepts in the world we are living now, I can't beat my chest for anybody, but African China is not a newbie, you don't even know if he has aquired that land for years, if that is not his first house self. When Kcee and his Second Presh were still driving old Benz, to Nissan quest, later they bought one rugged Jeep, I've seen them use pay phone (when rate was 20/mins), I've seen them leave a store cos of price difference, but today E money's house is well sited at Omole phase 2 with the new one in his village... it's called process and we saw how long it took them to come this far, if they compromise their identify on the path to now, it's not my problem. The interesting thing about this argument, if Genevive, Omotola or Mercy Johnson post such car, the dust won't b dis bad, because they have paid their due and deserves whatever comes their way, so far be it from hate on women, what are they doing? That's the question. |

Beremx: Tuface had subsequent albums. No be only album dey give money o. How many albums did African China release? He might be into legitimate business. Remember i didn’t say he was into yahoo Thank God you knw is not only albums that pave way for these people, he also have the Mr President album. Remember the London fever trouble in get into while billed to perform at basketmouth show? Not trying to say he made money thro all dis, but his elevation to the top should be respected, he is not a new generation artist. |

Beremx: person wey release album since 2007, im money never finish? Anyway, Destiny Eko didn’t get the car with her sweat of acting but sweat of bottom power. Na her luck. Whoever is bankrolling her should continue o! Yes oo! 2baba have a street in Lekki today and can afford Range, I guess he's into Yahoo, cos the money he must have made from kennis or Plantashun can't keep up with his bills. Even P Square are into Yahoo for having a house in parkview, the money they made from their first album don finish too. |

GenerationNext: Have you seen your life? African China built a house and the money is legitimate. Destiny Etiko bought a Prado and the money she used in buying it is illegitimate or men gave it to her. This ladies like their male folks are earning big in the movie industry. Some are using their money to acquire properties like Aki and Pawpaw. Hope you don't have assimilation problem? Because I don't remember posting these things. |

jahmarsh: haa premium again
But seriously, is it bad? I know of the fuel consumption. Engine and transmission worst? We are in the same dilemma, I have used Hyundai and I'm using Honda now, but struggling to get Toyota. Feel's like I'm yet to arrive if I don't have Toyota. I was patiently observing the type of car argument last week and choose to keep mute if expert like Bishop or Madam Rad are not saying anything. But my little submission on this matter: either cars are built for different purpose or we need to understand the reason why we need a particular car at a point in time. Toyota small but mighty barely reduce in price, it's that kind of shoe you will use and leave for ur children (mallam ku rin jo). Toyota Corrolla: 2m or 1.5/6m for grade local used, if you use the car for 2 yrs and want to resale, pending on abuse... The car may go for 1.6 for toks resale or 1.3 for local used, at the end 300/400k difference Honda Civic: toks 1.2/1.1, while used can fly from 750 to 400k and some times it's hard to tell the difference b/w both. Let's assume you get a good grade Honda for 750 and you use it for 2 years, sell at 600k, what's the difference? 150k Prons: They both make same money, but I consider Toyota Corolla as moving money and owners worth, better chance of offline trips if you have good communication skills. For Honda? The A/C, interior and sound system is a give away. If you buy a car of 750 and after 2 years, you've made 3.5/4m plus or minus, compare it to buying a car of 2m and making same amount. Cons: inability to sleep well, excess security consciousness and insurance matters, unlike the Honda civic where you may careless, drink your beer in peace. For the Honda? Your communication skills must be top notch before you can nail an offline trip, not that you cant, cos I do and mostly turn them down (they are distraction to work flow for me). Chance of having disappointed clients are high, in all fairness I have taken my leave on 3 clients cos they want big cars and I can't b begging someone, some will even ask if they accept this kind of car now (2003/2004 civic), thinking the car is 1996, I'll b the one explaining this is 04 car, same year with your Corrolla. The gear is the major problem, you see the solenoid will show you shege (Don't let no one tell you different), I practically service my solenoid switch every 2 weeks, with extra 2 up and down soleniod in the boot (each set cost 12k). while you may not even get to service Toyota gear for 6/12 months, let me not talk abt Honda service duration. As for Hyundai's and it reselling values, you will be the one begging the clients to add some tin, part availability is in Ladipo and you may not get the toks, but new. Sound protect? They will ask you to go work Toyota own to it. Toyota Yaris have is unique compressor, so when it get faulty, just know it's a beginning of a new Dawn in your life. For Toyota Camry 2003/08? Let's leave that for another post Let me stop here, need to on my app, I'll edit later. |

uniquetechng: African China actually started his music journey in 1999 at Orile, Crisis was released in 2003. I knew he started his music career in 1999 cos he won best regga artist, but when I surf online to check crisis album, it brought out 2007. Thanks, you just remind me of MusicAfrica on Silver bird. |

Chii59: 95% of these noise makers are broke and frustrated. African China showed off his house, no one accused him of yahoo yahoo, but this lady showed off a car (which probably cost less than a duplex) and see them frothing at the mouth! I hardly concern myself with how people choose to live their lives, but sometimes it's hard to ignore stuffs like what you wrote. African China and the lady in question are not mate, I can't tell how he made the money for his house, but please respect his process. He released his first album crisis in 2007, that's 14 years ago. I careless what these ladies do to get money, obviously not movies... Just suck to say, we will never see d end of every vices we frown at, as long as we keep validating folks with questionable possession and wealth.
