After buying fuel for #500 per litre, you go cum still buy tyre for #15k again. The expenses will not allow you make your weekly profit.
My tire actually cost #7500 205/60/R16. One just have to find a way to adapt, fuel price is not going down anytime soon. You either accept the reality or change hustle.

I'm planning to buy 2 brand new tyres. Maxxis or westlake. This tokunbo wey my vulcaniser dey sell for me 10k a piece, is just penny wise pound foolish.

I have bought two in the space of 5months... same issue,: the tyre go bend or swell for one side.

In 2019, bought 4 brand new tyres @ 13k each. and for a whole year, I no even reason tyre mata

Nothing beats new tyres.

Just bought 3 tyres 7k each, tho it is supposed to be 7500. As much as I know it is not easy, but I think we should cut cost as much as possible, because everyone will adjust (both rider and driver).

In this business, I have seen some drivers doom has been wanting preferred brand of cars and not a suitable tools. If micra will do the job, damn rider's perspective and go with what will ease the job. But I like Venza? Cool, may we get to the point of affording one. But using it for the hustle and trying to combine it as pleasure ride? Honestly do come at it own cost. With the raise of dollars, price of parts will surely go up. We need to introduce the Ghanaian and Indian style right now.

How about if they pick nails? As much as I agree nothing beats new tyres, our road can be something else.

I have a neat 2009 Honda civic parked idle because of the high fuel price. I now use bus to work as it is cheaper for me.
I wish I can get a trustworthy driver to give it out on a rental basis.

My last experience with giving my previous car to a driver was horrible. I dey fear to repeat the same mistake 😭.

Can we strike a deal, it will be placed under an Indian firm and I will be paying you 120k at every month end and you don't have to worry about maintenance....

But is this business still profitable as the average petrol price per litre in Abuja is #540, and it's likely to go up soon again?

Last week Friday by this time I came out to see if I can do 15k and back home by 11pm. So I zero down on island 6500 and got back to yaba 3500. 10k down 5k to go. Got 3k to Cubana. 10:30pm. I was getting Berger for 3k, but seeing the traffic? Fear won't let me. I kept updating till 1am, nothing nothing... that was how Pope slept inside the car. No b me go enter that traffic at 488/ L grin

Saturday morning, I say make I go house nah, inside car sleep and bed are two wide margin. Pick a trip going to Magodo 1 for 3800. I use express, no way, turn to Amara Olu and spent 2 hours between there to second gate. Rider gave me option of 2500 or we continue the ride. Smh grin I better pick this option and let her go. Gently find my way to Ogba from wemco road. Bath, eat and took nap at a friends place. Enter road again as target is in view. Saturday night I was around Magodo phase 2 around 11pm, set destination as I accept my fate of passing the night again inside the car. 2 days on the row grin

That was how request beeped. Going to Magodo phase 1 from phase 2. As much as I long to go home. Me to rider, Oga! You are mean ooo, are you asking me to go enter that Berger traffic, haba! Rider goes like pls, don't worry I'll give you 5k cheesy swallow spit grin hmm! 5k? Haaaa! The traffic, ohk, no wahala, lemmi just try.

Got to rider, study map well and noticed from Allen to wemco or Ogba route gets free with time, while the express is always on lock 24/7. I just use Allen to connect wemco, from wemco use alternative route straight for those that understand to Berger round about. Rider was happy with extra 2k thank u.


The thing about that route now is one have to wait till 12 or 1am. Home now with the tots of going out at night, but when I tot of what I went through last week and the routes when I check the map from Yaba to berger. Nah! I ain't doing that sh*t today. Damn! How did I get into this grin from the person that hang out once in awhile to workaholic. Even when I try to rest, all my head will be banging like request in hitting me. Sudden turuturu will sound like rider just cancel trip on me cheesy

I dedicate Cheerfulgiver to ya'll. I was just seeing guys popping into Cubana last Friday. Won't be a bad idea if I was that guy hopping out of that Benz with that Monalisa. E no good make suffer head master person grin we move on 50k target tomorrow sha.
