Pope191
Impossible is nothing, we aspire to inspire. As long as your mind can conceal, your eyes can see, then you can achieve it. All you just have to hope is for instance, if there's no resistance, but persistence, perseverance and grace like ace. Then the sky is just your starting point. 4m target on my mind this year, ain't nothing is stopping me. I'm more than a moving train, I'm a moving Lagos.

Coming to police matter, I have been stranded at umunya axis, anambra state, around 11pm with 2 bad tyres. I was heading to awka from Lagos. To my surprise, the came with their Hilux and assisted me in changing one tyre with spare. They claimed cult boys were deadly at that spot (2012), that we(with a family) must leave there.
I told them I can't manage the car to awka. They offered to take me to their station, parked the car( the tyres were already gone by now, I just drove it like that). Everyone with me entered their Hilux while one officer joined me in my car. We got to their station, they told us to take all we needed to take and still drove us down to my destination at Awka. I was speechless. I arrived around 1/2 am.

Later in the morning, I brought two new tyres and went to their station and paid homage to them. I also invited Dem to come around cos it was Xmas period, which they did after some days.

Good ones dey.

Truth is this period is the real nature of ehailing. Normal trips here and there, ones in a while surge of X1.1-X1.4
Then as d year progresses it's get better, but people want to think that d improvement is d norm, that's why we have alot of complains. No, this is d way it is. The winter is d norm. Mad surge and back to back trips is d unusual scenario.
It is in this norm u will calculate, crack ya head and permutate how u will make ur 80-100k weekly. Then when it is lush and green u do as u like and make as much as u can with little effort.
Oga Uche is either you just like shutting eyes to reality or otherwise. There's no such thing as the real time for ehailing, nobody is actually dull, we r only ignorant of business model. Some people only drive from October to December, as I am talking to you, they have face other things till business boom. The surge, no surge, bonus and Co are all operation method of ehailing. All you have to do is study the flow chart. How many wedding is holding today? How many event is holding today? Even those that have event center understand the meaning of down time and won't bother beating themselves over low patronage. How many olosho have you drop of successfully this month? How has the madly rush been on the island once its 5pm this month? Understanding timin is very vital in every business. Even on indriver you get to see trips, you hardly see 3 trips lately. Nothing new, all is normal as people are gearing up for a better year. Make una enjoy the season, if you can't endure, park your car for house.

Learn strategy! Learn strategy!! Boss nah inside room you they go carry them? I won't talk down on the hustle, because anyone that knows what he or she is doing, should know how to balance November and December earning for January, while push for luck in January. If you are grossing 400k every other month, find a way to key in 200k for your January and no how one won't make 200k to balance in January. So for those on HP/rental, those money you are making in November and December are not out rightly yours. Learn how to balance things in January.

It's everywhere, You can't compare other months to January. Even if you are scaling through, time factor can never be the same.

@eyinola try to find your route to her house. Even if na her former house, one or 2 neighbor go sabi where she’s currently living.

I had a similar experience about 2 years ago 2019. Naso I got request around Richmond estate (that 2face/Tiwa savage estate along meadow hall school) very early in the morning…..

Rider called say she go call gate! I enter the estate picked this woman and her daughter they’re going to ajah the small girl is having her waec exam. Off traffic zoom we got there.

On our way madam asked me how much I Dey make per day I said 25k she said consider the time I picked her she go pay 20k I said nope 22k last. She agreed seen her girl off to school and came back immediately told me I like your ac naso I run my engine from 8:40 something till almost 5oclock she slept wake up snoor and all.

Ok the daughter finally came out and naso we move on our way, I asked the woman shey make I send accounthuh She said yes but I’m still coming tommorow that her paper is 9 I should be there before 8am from mainland to island I had to Leave before 6 she no send the money oh got Richmond (I did this for 2 days)….

Naso I called the woman after I got home day 2 I noticed her number is not going through I called and called number blocked. I wanted to got mad but wifey was calming me down… a whole me one woman don jonze me 44k haaa no I no gree….

I drove empty zoom off to Lekki got to her gate I narrated my story to cso he no gree make I enter because them go sack all of them… well I sat in my car thinking one person or herself will reorder or come out from another car for hours nothing happens I was only getting Request from other estates…

I pasted her number on group back then people called she promised to send my money but nothing happened….

Well after 2weeks naso god help me oh I carry one girl enter that same estate with different street I was so happy cos after her incident, I Dey always go Lekki go hustle cos my instinct been Dey tell me say guy no how no how person go go that estate.

I knock her gate I press bell join one Aunty came hi brother hello please call mummy to come out okay…

Madam coming………. On sighting me, she wan enter ground. She summoned courage…. Good afternoon she smiled I no even answer her I just activated felicity hoodlum behavior straight… madam I no need your greetings enter inside if you no want wahala bring my money or do transfer right now make confirm….

This woman said she’s not with her phone that she’s coming Omo she go call security niooo that one came Dey asked me how I enterhuh

I told the idiot say I came to drop someone narrated my story and I shouted on top of my voice if I don’t see my money either I die here or I burnt your house down naso I open booth carry jack naso I hit her small gate loud!!! Omo I created scene oh neighbors wey Dey peep came out Dey asked wetting happenedhuh Before I finished narrating my story to Neighbour’s, alert enter 45k she rushed down saying I have sent your money I entered my car zoom off…

Since that day any rubbish offline, is either I collect my money on spot or we go withdraw together.

God go help you with right way to get your money.
In this buhari regime 80k means allot
Una own better, as I don't even know how much my own is owing me. We are just leaning on both fate and faith here. Tho we've know each other for 3 years and we've been running business blindly. Sometimes it pays me and sometimes it doesn't. Whenever she's in town, I may drive her for 3 weeks, book hotel and go shopping. She we spend much more money during that period, but my own case always end with later. Since November, it's been "I've not forgotten you". I'm just trying to strike the balance in my head if I should just avoid her with excuse this year.


@enyiola this issue at hand, I won't employ you to go to the police direct as per, no b person wey first go station they win. Secondly, if the issue become debt, which is debt somewhat, they will only ask her to sign undertaken. She may ask for 6 months to pay the money and at the end you will use 40k to fight 80k case.

A little bit of madness with keeping your proofs for litigation won't be a bad idea. Last month I got a request from Fcmb on the island. The lady ask me to take a pos machine to ikeja for 3800. Sharp pope, that's how I run it offline and pick another ikeja 2500 from Awolowo Rd. Got to ikeja and made a mistake of dropping the pos cos another sweet trip dropped immediately. That's how this girl told me to send receipt, because she will need it to claim the money. Me that run trip offline, back and forth, she dash my hope about nothing she can do and how I have run a free trip for Fcmb since there's no receipt. Smile! I went back to the place I drop the pos, start madness from there, went online to pull her info. This ain't begging matter, told her I'll find her to Fcmb, wait till her closing period and beat the living hell out of her. They find 3k give me and made me to understand its from their pocket. Just try and make the woman know you are not sleepin on the matter, you will be reporting to the authorities, and she may be pick on the day of her event.

If you keep picking wrong men, then you are a problem. While it might be convenient for you to blame men, you need to enter your quiet place and ask “WHY ALWAYS ME?”

She is heavily pregnant and it would make it the fourth child for a different man. I mean, this lady has four kids for four different men. Two crackheads in America, 1 for Ubi and she is carrying the fourth for Steve.

What would kill a lot of the new generation WIVES is trying to prove to the public that their husbands are modern and tolerant of every bullshit. It is the same demon that is making Janemena keep twerking to prove a point. When she should have retired long ago or at worst, after the Kpokpogarri saga.

You don't test the ego of a man.
Not a Nigerian man at that, except you have where you tied him. In the absence of that, don’t subject your marriage to constant pressure and ridicule.

You found a man that took you with your three kids and rather than put your head down, your concern is peppering Ubi. Ubi said no man will ever marry you, so you have to rub it in his face every day. Zukwanuike, no way!

Everyday you are fighting with Ubi ONLINE. Any woman (or man) that drags their EX and father of their kids in public is a cantankerous one. One that should be avoided. Some couples separate and tell you IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCE. You think they are stupid? Some things are better left unsaid for the honour of both parties. Not forgetting the kids that would grow to read this nonsense.

The exact problem with lots of single mothers and divorcees - No introspection. No upgrade. No repentance. Just a thirst to prove to their EX that they have been able to clinch another man.

If she has sense, she should try to fix this one. If not, she can stay there and join Tonto in KINGSHIP. Wisdom is profitable to direct…

Some things I read here sha, like year in year out we just like to rotate around a fixed cycle. They use suffer do some of us here? Winter! Winter!! Are you people going to pick ghost? Gosh! Sorry to say this, like we are greedy out here. People spend a lot on transportation last month from intra to inter state, some are yet to recover or even have to wait for the month to end before they can breathe some air of freedom. The rest of this month is hand to mouth for them, some will even give first fruit, meaning... it will take next month for them to balance.

Last month some of you were making BTW 30 to 50k in a day. Abeg how much b people salary? But transportation is necessity, the system took advantage of that to reap them. Do you know what it means for someone to enter a ride from Yaba to Surulere for 5k? If you have problem balancing life and business, please stop taking the frustration out here. E hailing was never meant to peer anyone with Dangote, it should be an elevation stage in a man's life and if you felt you've reach the peak, biko! Move on.

An average driver should b able to do 80k per week. 80k per week regardless winter is not that bad, we survive thro d bad days and take advantage of the good days.

I have been doing indriver since God knows when and never partake in surge, had burial during December, even had accident last month, coupled with raising money for burial, house rent. Life ain't that bad, I'm still feeling myself. Beside I expect most of the cars to b in mech work shop after the stress. Please let's get over this undue winter noise. Any driver should have been aware of this by now. People will resume work on Monday and things would b a bit better. Go home and sleep, take a rest, and work hard when duty call.

Even tot of someone leaving on the mainland and works on island with salary of 300k or less and uber is their only mode of transportation. If they spend 5k daily on transport, that's 100k in a month. The better part of their salary goes to transport.

Hello everyone,

I need your assistance to enable me make a business decision. My brother approached me today to buy a car with which he could start uber business. My budget is between 1,5 and 1,8 million.

My intention is that he pays the money every week/month until I recover the purchase amount. The problem is that there's no way I could physically monitor his performances/activities. I would have to rely solely on what he tells me because we don't live in the same country.

Could you please give me suggestions as regards how profitable the business is, the pitfalls to avoid and how realistic it would be to recover my investment within a year or a little above that.

I'd really appreciate your inputs. Thanks for your time
Boss it all depend on how well you trust your brother. I'll advice you buy a toks corolla for him as that will enable him to work with less complain. Toks corolla can go as far as 2.4 to 2.6 (Just sayin). Paying that back at least will take 21 months if he pays 120k monthly.

Inbtw: ask your brother what he can afford to bring to the table, you still have registration to do. I like when I want to help someone and the person is responsible to some level.

Maybe I didn't get it from the beginning. Please what did they do wrong? And lawfully what's the punishment for their crime??
The C.P is the number one person in the echelon of security matters in his state. All matter regarding security issue falls back to his desk and he have the right to access any public road within his jurisdiction. I came to knw this when I drive around with my lasma friend, as long as he is on duty or can use ID as identification, most restricted zone's let us go. I asked him one day and he made me to understand most of these gates are not supposed to be under locked and even if they have to lock them it is supposed to be with a time frame. Now, if there's traffic somewhere and he receive a call to rush down to ease the situation, how do he get to the point on time when everywhere is under lock?

Take for instance on the 31st, tanker spilled it content on Otedola bridge, while the authorities were trying to calm the situation and motorist were trying to use the omole phase ll aternative route, these security men won't let them use the route as escape route. Imagine if something bad happened? Rumour has it that they did the same thing when the worst inferno happened on same bridge.

Their offence is obstructing a C.P from accessing a public property, even after his identity has been known. That's an insult, an act that disrespect his office. The supposed action to be taken is what I cant outrightly tell, but at least he didn't beat those men.

That ur last paragraph is as different kettle of fish. If we enter that one, na full day argument.
I don't believe anybody, I'm just going by logics, cos even the estate management have to belief in the security men hearsay. The police have already clear it that Mogodo Brooks is a public property and if true they have no right to stop the C.P. churches do road does not make it their road.

If you believe they were trying to give him direction despite your own experiences with those estate security men then you can believe anything.

I will put most of the blame on the guest. He was supposed to have informed the security men ahead of his arrival.

If he did and the security men still decided to be unfortunate, they deserve everything that happened to them
In the words of the estate management “The estate security operatives on duty, having not had prior knowledge of Mr. Odumosu’s visit and in a bid to assist him with directions to the house of his host, sought to ascertain the particular resident he was visiting".

In the words of the police " visited the public Estate yesterday,1st January, 2022 to meet a strategic partner at a function after going round, visiting some places in the state to ensure safety of Lagosians.

The Commissioner of Police was accompanied by his armed security details and was driven in his official car bearing an official number plate and a pennant, including all the paraphernalia of office.

On reaching the Estate gate, he was properly introduced notwithstanding the visible security details in uniform including a dispatch rider in his convoy, yet he was prevented from entering the Estate by some overzealous private security guards".

You see the conflicting statement they are both releasing? The security men that saw a C.P with is full entourage and stopped him is truly asking for what he can do and the C.P just did what he can do. Let the estate management do what they can do about it.
