I’m not here to argue back and forth. The continent remains poor and dark because of entitled mentality, and you need to travel out more to see how people are grinding.

Ask Uber drivers in USA how much they pay car rental companies as opposed to them buying the car outrightly.

As for the simpleton calling me a small boy, I bet I am way way older than you. Since you are such a Liberal and simpleton what would you have us say to those hard working danfo drivers earning far less than 100k monthly. I know that you want to push us all into your irrational argument that Uber job is very difficult and risky, but let's sit around the campfire and sing Kumbaya instead.

By God’s grace I have been very successful and still continue to stay in a paid employment and always show appreciation for my employers giving me the opportunity to develop in my career and my finance. I will never be so foolish to commonize the investment of my employer, and they will continue to be my “small god” as long as I work for them.

Maybe you should go and read CBN report on how much cash an average Nigerian has in his/her bank account and then just maybe you would appreciate that partner putting down millions to invest on Uber.

Would like to see this car after six months on Uber/Taxify.

Pls note, Uber doesn't accept third party insurance, Only comprehensive insurance is acceptable.

Oga Julius, How can you offer a 2006/7 Mitsubishi Lancer for 4M on hire purchase.... Haba I salute you sha

Carshopper:


I was surprised when I found out this ... now if the so-called 'illiterate' as we call them build up a shift culture, what are we 'graduates' doing?

timifakay:


Forming superman because the cars being driven have AC and power steering.

Carshopper:


Lol or arguing what we should earn and who is Boss

guys, your thoughts please,

I have a slight issue with my uber app. I cant go online.

It keeps displaying that message about one of your document pending review, or expired, or rejected. Its referring to my driver's license. It recently expired, but I've renewed it and they've accepted it, because it shows the current expiry date of the license.

yet, i cant go online. My account is active, but i still cant go online.

Has this happened to anyone? what did you do?

The same way Bubu went to the international community to agree that Nigeria is indeed corrupt. You can see the resultant effect of his lack of wisdom. When you spread FUD investors run away

Governments all over the world most times give investors tax break; I bet you don’t know why.
Do you know how Lagos state government worship Chagoury brothers despite the fact that they are here to make money.

Start watching the video from 6:50

Are you aware that most investors engage in CSR (corporate social responsibility), building free schools, libraries and hospitals.
Finally have you ever worked for any white, Lebanese or Chinese man before? Chinese men work twice as hard as Africans and the white man would make sure you work for every penny he pays you. You obviously don’t get the intended message of showing gratitude to your investors, you are viewing it just from one perspective.

Do you really think Etisalat, MTN, DSTV etc are paying their staff 50% of their profit?
Can you confidently go on CNN and say “investors are welcome to Africa but they should remember they are here to make money and not here to do anyone a favor”, if you can’t then I think you should re-evaluate your stance on this matter.

That's the difference. You are making gods out of what puts good on your table, other people are making gods out of their ideas.

No employee in the world spends their money in the running a business. All employees give their time and skill and get paid in return.

By the time someone begins to spend their money for a business, they are no longer an employee but a stake holder.

Drivers in the e-hailing business are not employees of car owners, they are stake holders. So no single person is doing the other a favor, they are both adding value collectively.

You asked if mtn is paying employees 50% of their profit... Let me also ask you if an employee in mtn will use his money to buy Diesel into mtn generator?

If you want uber driver to be an employee, then pay for fuel and all other running costs, after which you now pay the driver a fixed salary. I think Ogunvic fleet company has a model that runs like that.

So don't get it twisted

Your argument is baseless. Uber drivers don’t fuel the car from their own take home. Uber drivers remain employees just like any other job, and if they want to become partners then let them put down 1m Naira as part of car purchase, my friend that to me is partner.

Uber refers to investors as partners because Uber does not have the money to put 10,000 cars on its fleet in every region they operate, so they heavily rely on investors money and rightfully refer to them as partners. Try and follow the Estonian Taxify guy from its start up and how money was a huge set back for him.

Uber and many multinational companies have only liquid assets in Nigeria because they are very smart and don’t trust our system and it’s people to build massive infrastructure or office headquarters here. Any magomago they declare bankruptcy and move sharp sharp like olx because of people with mindset like you.

If you really want to become my partner and share profit with me 50/50, then bring your own 1m Naira or hide your face. Let’s change the narrative please

Not at the risk of the lives of other road users and another man's investment.
A combination of overworked driver and car is just an accident waiting to happen.
Do you realize some danfo drivers run shifts?

You say stakeholders? How much can they earn from the sale of their stake?
Everyone at least spends on transportation to and from work or meals while at work. Uber drivers walk to their employer's car and get to work, they are allowed to take over the vehicle running cost because it will be easier for them that way than to wait for car owner to come do that for them. They are expected to be able to take initiative and hence the responsibility of fueling and keeping vehicle clean is considered when the remittance is worked, or would you rather a driver was going to collect money for fuel and car wash from owner on a daily basis and paying more than the current average weekly remittance?
