Somebody counselled me to take up trucking cos I desire a change of profession. But I'm so scared to follow this advice because I don't know how readily available are jobs for truckers in Nigeria. Also don't know where to train and cost of training. I live in the Southwest. Please experienced people in the house, I need your counsel, help me.

They get but the salary and working conditions are nothing to write home about. Most live on dishonesty. Stealing diesel and selling them or lying about repairs and stuffs like that.

Drive tipper truck with daily payment or get it on hire purchase. I started from daily payment then hire purchase. Later moved to heavy duty bulldozer catapillar and I make more money. Now I have my own company with fleet of tipper trucks and heavy duty catapillar. Most are not mine some people buy and put it in my care.

Yes monthly and besides you will be getting illegal (personal logistic delivery deals), that's extra cash. Don't sale companies diesel, if caught you might end up being sacked.

Hi. Did you later take up this career? I'm considering it as a fresh graduate.

Only the illegal logistics can fetch you 500k in 2 weeks. Like carrying tomatoes or empty palm oil rubbers when coming back from ugwu awusa delivery
