Nothing hurts more than reaching a pickup points and rider cancels the ride ..

Lol...it has happened to me many times but the one that pained me the most was the one that happened recently. I reached pick up point after passing through bad horrible road, I saw the 2 Oloshos about 4 buildings in front of me. I picked up phone to call, that's how one yellow commercial bus filled with olosho girls was passing, they waved it down and jumped in. And immediately they cancelled. Chai. I felt like ramming into that bus.

The thing can be very painful, especially when you're trying to leave a bad area.

This is the reason I avoid long pickups. The only time I do more than 10 mins pickup is rush hour (early morning & late evening)

So if rider cancel after I drive for 5 mins, I just tell myself "what the hell" or "good riddance"

But sincerely E dey pain undecided

Yes i suppose, i don taya, but na why i like eod, parts cheap so I no dey overthink am. BY THE WAY, AJAH TO VI IS BLOCKED. NO PUT BODY
They should finish that road repair faster.

In such a busy area with lots of businesses, Offices & residential areas, the only way linking them is Lekki-Epe express. Dem don use estate gate block Access or linkage to each other. If not for Coastal road wey dey save person sometimes when the express block just that you will have to drive extra miles.

Unlike mainland where you can pass different places like Ojodu, Agege, Kosofe, Mushin, Oshodi to get to Ikeja. Infact u fit dey go Sango make u no pass Abeokuta express until you get to Meiran

Anytime i dey go pick person for those Lekki or VGC estate i go dey vex when i pass through more than 1 Estate security checkpoints to pickup.

Funny enough, one guy did same thing to me at Canoe. I saw two big inverter batteries and he said he will add 1500. I told him to put the load in the description of his ride order that a hungry driver will come his way.

I drove off and he did exactly what I told him. A driver picked the ride. I am more than convinced that some people’s destiny is to be poor. They actively try to be poor and it is one of the easiest things to do.
