Possible.
It was bound to be like that at some point after the construction was concluded. That left turn was a make shift cos the bridge was still under construction.

The second paragraph doesn't make sense though... U can come back to Toyin the same way cars from Opebi are entering Toyin. There is no more U turn in salvation for a long time now, so u can't turn at salvation. Why will u go all d way to under Oregun link bridge to turn back to Toyin.
That one isn't true.

There’s a U turn in salvation, the one that has small round about right in front of chicken republic but what’s confusing is why do you have to drive all the way to salvation to do U turn back to toyin when coming from toyin when there’s a round about U-turn just before pekas where those police do stand for stop & search.

Good morning. Pls drivers coming from coastal road heading to d intersection where d coastal road starts (eko hotel intersection ) should please slow down when apporaching it. There was a very serious accident last nyt at dat junction. A speeding car from coastal road rammed into a car at dat junction. Both cars were damaged. Repairable but very badly damaged... Dat spot dey chop people carbon a steady.

This is bound to happen, they should consider doing a flyover bridge at that intersection so that cars going straight on Ahmadu Bello way can take the bridge while the ones turning towards eko hotel can pass beside it. But in the meantime, they should consider doing speed bumps to slow down cars.

I once heard someone said he was tipped 50k here, I usually don't believe Nigerians are that generous till it happened to me this night. Took him from Oniru to VI. Trip of 6500 on Bolt Comfort, he paid 20k and asked me to wait, I usually don't like waiting for passengers due to how it usually turn out to be and I dey chase bolt trip bonus but my instincts just kicked in that if this guy fit pay 20k, he seems a generous person also the quality of his conversation all through his phone conversation. After waiting a while I took him to Bourdillion, then straight back to his place in Oniru. Naso baba run me 50k extra. I wish person fit dey meet people like this everyday or atleast twice a week.

Lol on several ocassions people dey tip, some will tip you for waiting even after Uber/bolt will pay you. No such thing in Indrive u dont get paid for waiting or delay. Anybody wey tip me even N500 extra i dey appreciate am die.

The other day some ladies tipped me 35K in chevron, she had previously sent 50K to a wrong acct. She still insist on tipping me another 35K without vexing. I no knw wetin to talk dat day.

I don’t if it is just me ,the motivation to keep getting more jobs done on this app keeps declining , though I’m facing some emotional stress and I’m prioritizing rest for a while now ..But not getting past 3/4 trips in day and averaging 30k or less makes me worried ..I’m not pushing myself hard enough though coupled with this fuel economy that adds to it ,with little profit to take home and not many juicy trips ..I hope it gets better in coming months ..

You have to motivate urself. U already have the car. If ur resting doesn't affect ur bottom line then rest but if u know u have to be on d road then pls be on d road. Watch ur spending and also note where u buy fuel from. Now that fuel is expensive u must know exactly where u buy so u get value.

Even if 20k gets u 40k or 45k then u can rough it out. Half bread is better.....cause sapa is bad. And ur car can help u out yes profits have been greatly reduced but let sapa be ur motivation

Pls as this work don hard due to fuel , I'm thinking towards registering/complying with airport authorities so that I can station at the airport and wait for riders, maybe flight passengers may pay better. If any driver here is working at the airport pls share your experience, is it a nice idea? How can I go about it or should I have a rethink.

Pls is no driver here working at the airport? Share your experience pls is this idea good? Will I be getting rides

Reduce your work days driving.
If you've been in the hustle for 3years and above, you've tried.
Reduce the days you work to 4 days, using the rest of the days off driving.
Motivation go come.
Even with 4 days work in a week, you go have good net profit.


Much respect, boss.

I think you still need to find your way or pattern of working else it will just bore you and motivation will die, when i started late jan i felt so too until i studied the Uber/bolt map and draft a working strategy/route for myself not just going to anywhere Apps sends me.

I take 1-2 days off every week, make car and body rest. Those days off are for maintenance and fixing i noticed in the car

It's normal, it's the decline that comes with job monotony. Just take some days off when you feel like, it's okay to take a break but not for too long. Another culprit I noticed in time past that made me work without motivation was lack of clear goals. If you give yourself some weekly or monthly target, it helps pump some little adrenaline into you especially when you meet them targets or gets close. So have a daily goal and work towards it. Why you think say when your rent due, even when you're tired, energy must come by force to go work out the money especially when you get the means(Car)? It's that motive that creates compelling reason for you to work.

I think there's a deliberate attempt to hide this update or something, coz no one has said anything since.

As in that example u cited. If rent is due ur body go conform cause u MUST raise d money by driving. I remember some time back wen I soley depended on this hustle alone. As in any 2k na from driving. Bro. Motivation was natural ooo is sad now that profits have greatly been reduced so it makes it not worth but at d end, iz better to keep it moving than been stagnated

Boss see LagRide price as e huge compared to Bolt, because Lagride hardly gets 3rd party vehicles and they know its expensive to maintain or fuel car. Why Bolt, Uber dey use Drivers head to satisfy riders? Thats the issue because People will adjust. Fewer Trips with better fare is better than driving about causing damage to car and drivers overworking

I told a rider yesterday when he entered and immediately request for AC. You saw SELECT option on Uber which says comfortable cars you no order u con pick Uber X the lowest. I told him Point black "BRO AC IS NOT PART OF MY SERVICE, IF YOU NEED PREMIUM SERVICE YOU WOULD HAVE PICKED UBER SELECT"

All foreigners and Big men & Women i have picked use Uber SELECT

I carried four ladies from Surulere to Akoka. While in the car, they were discussing about men. How men are grapist, and all manner of b@d things about men. While they were talking, I did like I was not in the car with them.

With the way they were shouting, you'll know obviously that they wanted to get my attention to talk but I ignored them.

At some point, one of the ladies tapped me so hard at the back asking if I'm offended with their discussion but I said no and kept mum again.

It seems they got pained by my silence. At the end of the trip, they rated me 1 star and reported my account.

Hell has no fury like frustrated old Nigeria women.

Kumuyiii:
This true?

As of now, 9am this morning, I can confirm this is false.

Nobody can arrest anybody legally in that place. There is literally a sign that directs cars to make d left turn and the sign is still there.

The person that posted that must have been illegally obtained
