"outside" is not smiling at all...I felt so unhappy today, got me brooding for a while....A week ago I put up a request here that I need a Corolla, 2003-2006....Our budget was actually between 3.7-3.8...
Today, I decided to enter market, thinking that the guys have been using are not effective enough..I Waka round Lagos, almost finish 10k fuel ....Brethren, the cheapest Corolla I got was 4.6 million....Fear catch me, I don't know things has really gotten that bad....For a 19 year old vehicle....A dealer presented a 2006 for 5.5 million, very clean, after so much bargaining he said he will take 5.1.
I was just angry with myself, with the country, with everything...Person con be like failure again...This country don finish o walai...
On a second thought, all this 1k trip no suppose dey again, even if na 2 second trip.....Maintain your car, you may never be able to afford another one, with this Hussle abi na where Uber man was see 5 million.....HP on a toks now go be like how much again ...I just weak honestly..

Have you tried checking Jiji. Have been seeing clean cars there at reasonable prices. Though you still need to check with your mechanic.

Also, why not try other brands aside Corolla.

Where's that dollar man? Read this update, it's very important. CBN is repaying billions of dollars in cash to banks, there will be excess of dollars next week which will most likely crash the price of dollars a bit. Good morning

Djdamian:


Not sustainable.

The BDCs will likely mop up the dollars,hoard it and make it scarce again,then we are all back to square one.

The only solution is to export more than we import and attract foreign investors.

All those traveling offline wey Dem no fit pay but want premium service, and then within town too, they will b pricing rubbish. I just prefer we go online, anything u see at the end if the trip u pay.
But if I carry u to destination and u say "can u take me back on same price?" now u are talking. I will glady run it.
Last week, someone requested from Opic and put Eleko road. App showed somewhere around Abraham Adesanya. I drove to pickup and he wants to carry gear. I asked him where are you going, he say Eleko road close to refinery. I told the man the map is wrong, that where he is going to is way farther away and the price will be significantly different. Cos I no want drama. I suggested we do it offline if his budget is limited, he say how much, I say oga pay 15k make we dey go. He say 15k is too much that he saw 8k to 10k. Even after explaining that what he put on App is different from where he is going and that the money will even be more than 15k if we do it online, bros insisted that it can't be upto 15k. I just smile inside of me and asked him shey u know where u are going to sha. He said yes, he will direct me, d mumu man even suggested we pass sagam/ijebu ode route...if I was a bad boy I would oblige but I have d fear of God... I told him that's long journey. We moved, thank God no traffic, (cos my busstop in that direction is always Orchid if I do ojukokoro na Abraham Adesanya be my limit) 3hrs later, we arrive I end trip App say 23k plus, oga face change. I no even get strength for explanation again...evidence dey look u. If u doubt it, I confirm d trip, he saw it on his app and got a mail. Baba could not say anything again. He transfered my money and I moved.

So why I don't like offline generally is that sometimes the price isn't right and most times it's to odd destinations.

That's what they used to say but these days after displaying what they got on dashboard then they add plus offline, so so amount.

ksmart027:

I understand your point, one called me on Saturday and he wants me to take him from ph to benue for 70k, i just told him i know Sabi drive for highway, I know get time to shalaye. Another thing is the tend to owe you when you get familiar with them, to pay will become problem. So personal i prefer online, whenever i am done for day, I turn off my app simple.

Pearl1910:

Glithronix:

And when you give them offline price using your discretion, they will think you charging them too high and start complaining until you send them to go online and they see the price themselves.
The same reason I no too like offline too, cos I hate argument and too much explanation.
Some offlines I do are those riders who don't care about the price and don't want to stress themselves by ordering and waiting for another ride.
my neighbors as well, and referrals, offline comes from them, too.

Much respect, baba.

Pearl1910:


I still do, but no evidence. I no get strength to explain.

Below is for yesterday.

Speculation, without doing the economic work.

Nigeria will have to start manufacturing, and stop importation.
