I was exhausted. That was meant to be my last trip before going home and I was using style to rest. This job is not for the faint hearted.
grin. My friend was telling me how he carried a lady to a guys place on d Uber app and d lady and guy said dey didn't have money to pay him 'please' grin. My guy said he had to act like a mad man on d street. It was a 6k trip. Omo literally d whole estate came outsid as he blocked their access road. To cut d story short someone he doesn't know that doesn't even know the couple but lives in d estate and heard d comootion paid as he felt for d driver.

Dis work esp in Lagos is really not for d faint hearted. You deserve d rest cool

Bolt is updating driver profile with their NIN.
Click on update vehicle, click on your car, it will ask you to update all your documents, click on your driver profile (just for nothing), then click on your driver documents again, this time, it will show only NIN empty and required, then upload your NIN slip.

Hello guys. Good day. Please, I use Toyota Camry 2004 but recently the gear started delaying in the morning like 30 minute before it will move. But once it move, it won't happen again until I park the car for longer house again. Anyone with idea of what could be wrong ?
I’ve experienced something similar… mine was also giving hard start when I switch off the engine after driving for over 1 hour… I resolved it by changing my complete fuel pump.

I was also asked to update driver documents to go online again even when previously uploaded haven’t expired. I just have to upload NIN and I’m good to get back online? Thanks

Tell your friend to always report the ride when a rider refuse to pay especially on Uber or bolt, the will pay him and block the rider.

That's why i prefer online trips, if you don't pay, i report the ride and move.

I used to like Okada guys for one thing, they will be going to your direction and still refused to carry you if your offer is poor. That's called value.
If you carry a poor fair because you're going home or because you're been online for hrs without any good requests.......
you're not only poor, you also don't have value.

I pick 3 young guys to a remote part of Okota (can't remember the name). Very bad road and they took me far from the set destination after making me wait for like 30 mins promising to "add something". After I got to destination, and I had accepted another trip, the guy say him wan call him brother to do transfer

Omo I just drove off and chatted the guy on whatsapp with my bal amount and account number

He snubbed my msgs for almost 6 hours. I just blocked him and reported to Bolt, I was refunded

As long as you have evidence, don't fight any rider on Bolt, chat with them and the fare will be added to your bal

Who here has experienced e-hailing in any other city outside Lagos?

Lagos is a very hostile place to drivers.

My driving experience in Ibadan has been pretty pleasant, we have a few drivers on weekly remittance of 60k weekly with CNG though and to my surprise they are always meeting up ontime with no excuses.

To highlight the cool side of driving in Ibadan;
No traffic only on rare occasions and never compared to Lagos traffic.

No touts to harass you incase of a breakdown.

No need for Lasdri, and other documents required of rideshare drivers in Lagos.

The train service has improved the business in Ibadan.

In a nutshell if you are feeling tired of Lagos and you have the flexibility to explore a new city, I think you should try experiencing Ibadan

I bought fuel of 15k and I drove from Ayobo to Ogombo in Ajah then turned back and got to Lekki phase 1 before my fuel light came up.

I want to know if my car consumes fuel or not. I'm using Toyota Camry 2006. There was no much traffic on the road aside the traffic light stops and small traffic jams like 3 minutes 5 minutes.

Plus I didn't use AC all through the trip

How many hours were you on the road and how much did you make with the 15k?

It can be better!
I use 15k on average to ajah and back without AC or intermittently.

I also covered similar distance from ayobo to Ajah some hours ago. Fuel cost was about 15k with medium traffic and AC usage was around 40%-60% of the journey .

Some tips. Run a scan, check your O² sensors, replace engine air filter if needed and lastly, check your tire pressures... Very important!
Can affect MPG up to 35% especially on long distances.
