No ooo nothing concern u with one-way if u r coming from Anthony-Oshodi end.
And that untared slide right road u r referring to is now smooth like butter grin

Pls are you saying I can go on this road on one way climb the bridge and continue to oshodi or I have to turn left into oshodi?

Cause what I did the last time is to continue as if I’m going to oshodi and then made a u turn back to airport road.

Or the way is no go area at all at all. Just turn into Oslo way

That was the same road they caught me and I paid 22k.

Same road one of us here narrowly escaped from last week too na...

Each time updates like this is shared here let's do our part by calling those we know to give them update so they don't fall prey to these thieves.

Just tell him to settle them and go his way there's nothing anybody can do on this.

Sorry bro

Are there NO ENTRY ROAD- signs there? Lagos State Government has done a great job by mounting road signs in most part of the City.

This is bad!!! Àbí those bad cops and LASTMA guys done comot am...

All the Asians I have picked up, they were waiting and looking out for me and not the other way round.

Please how to u avoid unwanted trips,do u tell riders to cancel or u find excuses to make them cancel cos I think refusing request also affect rating quote author=ReadaDream post=107457823]@Bolded...wrong move, considering where he stays.

Key to getting go trip out of Sangotedo axis is starting early. Set out by 5 and drive towards skymall or Ogidan shopping complex.

At least 3x in a week my first trip is always to the airport.

Request around Sangotedo in the early hours can be tricky and full of time wasting trips. You have to be smart to make the best out of it.

I avoid trips going to any of those bus parks at Abraham adesanya like a plague (na why I no they chase bolt bonus) I don't even do any Ajah trip. It's either VI or Mainland. And I must leave with a surge trip. [/quote]

Between Nigerians and Advanced world!

I once picked a South African lady from Magodo to jibowu. She was already at her gate waiting for me.

Today I was at the hospital(pharmacy section) waiting to collect my mom's medicine, the lady before me was also waiting. She had like 5 persons before her. I saw her booking a ride on bolt App. She got someone and just sat there! I was almost pushed to tell her that she should have booked that ride after collecting her medication and ready to go.

I think it's a Nigerian mentality and it's mostly ladies

Once I pick a request that I'm not going to complete. I arrive and wait for 3mins before canceling.

If you like call me from now till next year, I'm not going to answer the call nor reply your chat. I only need 3mins.

Some riders know this already, they cancel sharp sharp.

That's another option...when u descend d bridge just continue straight facing Oshodi on the service lane then do a U-turn at the next opening on ur right into d express and face mile2.

Or after descending that bridge u turn left at the next street , keep left and burst out under the new bridge on airport road.

I call before going and I'll ask you where you're going. If I don't want to go there, I'll tell you straight that I'm sorry, I'm not going there. Pls cancel. If you refuse to cancel, I'll politely explain to you that you won't be charged for cancelling, but if I cancel, it will reduce my activity. I usually don't have issues with this.

I am a lady aged 26, and my husband is 34. I left my husband with the maid and our baby at home. After driving for just about 2km from home, my car engine started to over heat.

Dr. Mapulanga's reply.

Over heating of the engine after such a short distance can be caused by problems associated with the radiator. You need to check the oil and water levels in your engine before you start your journey. You must also make sure your car is serviced regularly to avoid such problems in future.

Dear madam,
This things are rational and normal.
The same way you drove a car for short distance and it overheated,
You left the car and went for another car.
Is like when your husband needs to drive you (have sex ) but (you overreact, nag and complain ) you are overheating and claim sex twice a month (2km) is enough.
Your husband will leave you and go and take another car (the maid).
As Dr Mapulanga advised, ensure regular servicing (sex) to avoid same occurrence in the future.

@gentlelife50, if this advice meet u well, u know what to do

Folks, I promised to drop a Gist about an incident that transpired between myself and an intending Rider grin some couple of weeks ago.

Having read about Oga BAZOO encounter with a Troublesome rider he was able to spot with the spirit or Voodoo powers miles away, I became motivated to drop this my encounter also. Though, I felt its no longer Newsworthy 'cos event had already overrides it. But reading BAZOO own, then I realize I suppose drop this...

Please any Driver that engages in such act of Shame, Indignity, loss of pride and Self respect should please desist going forward.

It was on Saturday, early in the morning around 8:20a.m thereabouts, I'd my first trip to lawanson from Fagba axis - K Farm. The trip ended well, without gbas-gbos. We got to said destination at lawanson.

Driver: Your fare is so & so
Rider: Alright
Driver: Transfer received, enjoy the rest of your day
Rider: And you too...

(Naso e end)

....while I was still thinking where the next request could come from....naso alarm rang.

Before I could chat the rider...my phone rang : grin! grin!! grin!!!

Driver: Hello Sir - Good morning
(Seems a lady snatched the phone from the guy)

Rider: where are you?
Driver: Am at so so place
Rider: Ehn Ehn...you'll go to my house, pick up my clothes and bring it for me...

I paused for a sec, (while the call was still on ) her request was akin to receiving a long range shot from a hitman using a Sniper.
I was Speechless.

Rider: Can you hear me
Driver: (I now replied her subtly)Yes I heard you, but I'm sorry Uber Drivers are not meant to embark on such trips...
Rider: dropped the call

Now...I was still in that shock, it was like I'm seeing stars in comic books and Cartoons.

The ambience in which the unknown rider is calling from, apparently sounds more like an hotel, you all understand after Friday Night stuff.

After like 12 mins, when my brain I'd booted i wanted to call and tongue-lash her, but I realize its of no use.
Why? I'm not seeing the person in question physically and that could in turn ruin rest of your day.

Now...here comes the question (LOGIC)

1. This is not her first time asking Drivers to go on such errands... 'Cos that one no be trip self.

2. High Probability, Drivers go through a whole lot of degradation,mistreatment, disrepute just to make ends meet.

3. What if I embarked on such errands, at point of entry of her house, she called me or directed me to go pick up her clothes , perhaps underwears - spread on the lines

...and many more possibilities, you can add yours..lol

Here comes Reasoning....
Some school of taught will justify the cause, claiming is all about Benjamin' niqqa

While some will cling on to straw of Dignity and Self worth firmly, claiming it worth more than 30 pieces of silver and shouldn't be laid to bare -
(Note: 30pcs of Silver, that was amount the Savior is being sold for)

Both Action(s) has consequences, in which only few Active Upright minds could discern

Coming from mile2 you have to enter via iyana isolo bridge since the useless people refuse to open the bridge that takes you directly to airport rd.

The thing hard me to describe. Use the iyana isolo bridge to access the other service lane coming from oshodi then go through aswani RD to link osolo way. Osolo way takes you directly to airport rd 7/8 bus stop. Keep right climb the new bridge and it takes you to service lane facing airport rd.

I swear na the map dey carry people pass that one way. Always enter through aswani guys, going through that DHL takes you directly to that slope and the weyre cops will be waiting.
