In ur six months experience, you never meet loyal girlfriend and married womem, but all are cheating, I will advice you to do more research without bias mind.

There wont be a day that everybody will be equal and behave same way on Earth, God purposely designs it that way.

Meanwhile with kind of job and data (girls and women) you collated to do ur research , it must tend towards negative disposition , and not neutral in ur findings.

Of course, girls and ladies that will be carry Uber often are those who will be going to meet sugar daddy,Yahoo boys and different boyfriends, at least the girls must waste not only sugar daddy's cash, luxury things but "transportation" as well.

Good Day all
My name is Jeff
I will try my best to be as detailed as I can. Please I'm not a great writer pardon my error/blunder I kuku no get opportunity go school at least nairaland has helped me a lot in terms of spelling and writing too

Back to my topic...... September 8 2019 I took my corolla to bolt office in maitama for registration I attended their lesson I passed that same day I became a bolt driver I did my first 5 trips and I was happy, it was difficult for me as a beginner using GPS to driver for the first time.

My first 1 month was hell, all the money I made was spent on traffic offences, like wrong U turn, touching your phone while on traffic light, like dropping a rider in front of a market, like beating the traffic light, etc I learned the hard way

If you are a responsible no-wahala lady in Lagos, especially on the Island, AVOID BOLT.

I mean, AVOID BOLT!

Most runs girls and werey people in Lagos use Bolt because it is cheaper. As a result of this, Bolt drivers are naturally biased and defensive when dealing with ladies. Especially when they pick you on the Island, or from the mainland on Friday evenings. That day na high traffic day when Island boys import their mainland gfs.

To avoid being stereotyped, just avoid Bolt drivers and their wahala.

I have never had problems with Uber drivers, but you see Bolt? It is either they are cursing other road users or they reject card trips, or they try to transfer oloso-induced-aggression on me. I done delete their app tey tey.


It is always “Bolt driver punches female rider”, e get why! AVOID THEM!

Can I buy like two cars and give to bolt to use and give me returns?
My advise, do not buy cars and get drivers to be remitting to you. First of all, they will ruff handle your car, they may delay payments, infact by the time they are done with your car, even panel beatter go pity you.
What you will do is this: buy your car, give it out on hire purchase, by so doing they will drive it with care knowing in there mind that if they dont mentain it, na them go suffer after payment. Get a strong agreement signed, including no defaults, if they default in payment twice, make it known you will collect your car and give to another person. From this you will enjoy your life. But do the mistake of giving it out to drivers just like that and you'll pity yourself. My advice o. I learnt the hard way

The attitude you have adopted towards women is the problem not the women - first , the back seat is the safest place for women to seat , second what is the problem if a customer decides to sit anywhere in an uber ? It's obvious it's the nigerian problem of "no dignity in labour" - ur probably embarrassed of driving an uber and therefore want people to sit beside you like it's you and your pal or you and your girlfriend so u don't feel like ur a "driver" - when there is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of driving uber . You call ur customer runs girls and say women cheat - is it men that don't cheat ? Cheers and hopefully more wins for you .

I expected this line of argument. The difference is the platform, the rules in place.

The same Nigerians that would be acting like wild animals at MMIA, are the same ones that would queue at Heathrow.

Uber uses mostly pricing to keep their system free of hoodlum-riders. I also heard they ban drivers, I don’t know if they ban riders too.

Even the OP said he registered on Bolt first because Uber’s registration is stressful. That should tell you a lot.
