obuneme:Airline increased their fares by over 200%. In fact at a time an average Abuja to Lagos flight costs 100,000 naira. Guess what? People still flew. Here in Abuja bolt/uber fares are so cheap even your local pepper seller can book a ride for 400 naira. In saner climes this is meant to be a luxury service. Private cabs is for people who can afford the luxury. If you no get money you can enter danfo or keke. If the price is right, with 3-4 trips person supposed don close dey go house. Not where you see someone driving for over 13hrs! Just to hit target. Na modern day slavery we dey so. |

obuneme:Big no! And the thing still remain drivers are the big f**l here. On the other hand it is understandable. Indrive is using this as advantage to gain more riders, obviously this price won't work. Infact prices are low compare to what we usually do. By now there should be no more trip as 1k again. I won't argue with those saying do as you like if everybody off app and leave 5 persons to work, they will obviously come up with the best figures in the world. Let all drivers gear to work and you will understand better. I can't buy fuel of 15k and be picking 1k trips, drivers are just being stupid. Walahi! |

Actually, I have discovered this thread is 90% lazy drivers, part-time drivers and people that aren't even in the business. Arguing with them is a waste of time. One would ordinary expect serious and genuine questions as to how to achieve success in the business, or just copy what they see. But no, na to sitdon dey press phone they talk "it's not possible", "it's not profitable" They have been complaining since 19kokoro, period within which serious people have saved and travelled out, some have built houses and big busineses, some have multiplied their fleet and all manner of good reports from ehailing. Fuel price is just another talking point and excuse for them, devil dey beat drum for their head and them dey dance to the rhythm. Within these 4days someone has made 80k driving with the same price increase, but some people have parked their cars, and are home crying and wailing, some say they are still observing. some say it is a rat race some say it is running like a headless chicken some say it is moving lagos up and down Well, as our faces are different so are our challenges and destiny. Make everybody do wetin dem like with their life. Not stressing myself to proof anything again. But I will still be here for the people that really want to work and succeed in the business, I only pity the people that will be deceived to follow the ones that are secretly working and making it while discouraging others on this platform. |

Pearl1910:Pearl sorry to say this your post is pointless... I deh omole estate like this, fuel 10k no reach half tank and that's 20L. The trips out here are not encouragin at all. From 184 to 488 and you are expecting people not to frown at it. Even NNPC is predicting a lot, the road has been free ever since, people are trying to adjust to reality, houses can't run Gen again, but you went to act as if all is well or we all should act as if all is well. Are you devil's advocate? Just a question... take a look around, nothing is working as it used to be. |

Pearl1910:Oga you won't blame them, I'm a part time driver since this fuel increase, the only rides I have done is when I pin my home address and take someone to that area then go home. I had some fuel this morning and I said I should top it with 4000 fuel. I came out around 7am, can you imagine the trips I did(Four trips) till around some minutes to 9am, my fuel was back to where I met it this morning. Guess how much 4100. Are you playing? I've not paid bolt their commission o. Location is Abuja. So you won't blame people that are not driving this period, like this in owing bolt, profit of 100 is what i have made. |

Pearl1910:What I mean is he goes almost everywhere, even places drivers frown at. Anywhere belle face things, u you sef do you do island/mainland three times in one day? And you want us to believe either you or the car won't break down at a point? Worse part is your likes want us to believe you people do these fat figures with less fuel and resources, how on earth do you want me to believe you make more despite the increase in pump price? Haba, make una fear God small. Dey play. |

Pearl1910:So all of a suddenly everyone is lazy. Na only you and CheerfulG dey hardworking? 😆 Post your bolt figures just like CheerfulG posted his inDrive let’s see how you’re cashing out. You can’t lie your way out of this fuel increase. The calculations are straightforward. Y’all can only deceive the gullibles on this Nairaland. In reality thousands of drivers are in different groups lamenting daily even this morning them don start. But over here y’all are living in your own alternate reality. 😆 Make una dey play.

Viking07:The sad thing is that there are Judas and saboteurs amongst us. Who think they are making more money this period. They are the one spoiling the business for reasonably thinking drivers. I hope these guys can afford to fix the car with what they are currently earning when serious issue come up. |

obuneme:The problem with the black man is lack of deep thinking. We can't see beyond our noses because of poverty majorly, we are just looking for what to eat today, not thinking of tomorrow. That's why we sell our natural, mineral and agricultural resources for peanuts only to buy back refined and finished products. Nobody things of repercussions and ripple effects or look at the big picture. I have said it before, if the App companies make the fare such that a driver can potentially make 100k daily and no Rider is requesting nko. Which is better? Guaranteed 20k or Possible 50k. Raise price, raise price, raise price...that's all we hear but forgetting that if price is raised to d amount that is okay by us, then demand will automatically drop. We even see it happen practically when there is surge. How many people patronize airport taxis today? The answer is simple, if the service is too expensive, it will be abandoned by those that can't afford it, and in Nigeria today, that's about 70% of our current Riders. These are some of the hard truths, if I talk they will say I am an agent, with double mouth, but the reality is if we think like a business owner, we will have less quarrels with our CEOs. |

obuneme:Then let them reduce their commission to 10%, if they can't raise their prices to suit the reality on ground. They don't want to loose clients, but they can hold on to their 25 % commission. Well nah drivers dey suffer the whole thing |

Conner44:And las las everyone he called out on that thread later turned out to be scammer..including a moniker called deflover who ran away with $200.. So in other words.. I was right again... Let me sit down and relax on this thread and watch paid promoters mislead people...and I am shocked that some drivers cannot even detect this simple thing easily......they are only doing their job..don't fall into the trap of lies..... It happens every year , the promoters do come and go.. we have seen the ones of uber , bolt etc..in the past...now it is the indrive and co... they will tell you they have very amazing strategy that helped them...same story...same pattern.. and when their format is casted..they will stay offline on their monikers for a while..then later come back months later and start the same thing again and again.. ![]() |

CheerfulGiver:Sorry boss this is not the post I was expecting you to respond to. The one where I broke down your income+expenditures. If you don’t mind biko respond to it. Maybe we’d all learn how you break-even. Because the mathematics is not mathemating. |
| Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by Glithronix: 10:05am On Jun 04, 2023 |
So, yesterday (Saturday), I grossed 45k with 30L fuel. Though I bought the fuel I've been using @184 before subsidy removal. Now, it is obvious that definitely, 30L fuel will grosss me 45k on weekends (contrary to when fuel was @185 that I could use 30L fuel to get 35k). ANALYSIS Before: Fuel 30L x N185 = 5,550 (tho, I normally buy 6k) Indrive commission = 3,500 Total = 9,050 Gross = 35,000 Net = 35,000 - 9,050 Equal = 25,950 Henceforth: Fuel 30L x N490 = 14,700 Indrive commission = 4,500 Total expenses = 19,200 Gross profit = 45,000 Net profit = 45,000 - 19,200 Equal = 25,800 Time and energy input seems the same. I don't normally use weekdays for my analysis cos weekdays are a rough period that require more strategies (for me). Sometimes, they come easy, other times, they come not easy. Much respect, bosses.

I no dey argue with you. Every means of income is reasonable. Even shit_packing. There was this man that his logo was "shit_ business is serious business" Nigeria has happened to everyone. The reality of it all is that bills must be paid. When people realize that everything is about paying bills, they'll restrategize. For now, make everyone dey play first. I bought fuel yesterday 15000. Total gross 56000 commission 5300. Net 35700. Nobody on this thread can ever give me 35700 in 15hrs if I ask for it. Today I'll go again. I have above half tank. By the time I'll buy fuel again today, I may not even use it till tomorro's hustle. Make Dem dey complain. Me I don strategize dey cash out. I've paid all bills for yesterday. Will pay for today. That's all it's about. It's when you realize that nobody cares about you on this thread, maybe they'll restrategize too. I go dey wait. But for now, make we dey play. ![]() GeneralZodd: |

lrman:It's like you're mistaking this thread for your forcasting/crypto/bull-bear thread ![]() You should go back to that thread and keep on busting your scammers. What we have here are ehailing drivers and not people who sit in front of phone's or PC's from morning till night trying to bet on how high or low the next pip lines are drawn. |
