That's the point they are missing?

You can't dictate weekly rental fee until you start providing cars on rental.

The Association you go ahead and buy cars, rent it out to its members for 20-25k a week.

At least it would finally discouraged car owners from asking for 35k a week.

You're forming association, yet you're not buying cars, where is the "PROFESSIONALISM".

Way forward, let Driver Partner buy cars outrightly from car owners or go to car dealers to buy cars then stop paying weekly rental.

Please refrain from using vulgar language. This is not the right thread for it. Please

Say no to slavery, no one should accept any car above 30k weekly delivery
25k to 30k is the best anyone should accept here

MobilityExpress:
Uber and Taxify is already on its last leg of "crashing". One more further reckless insensible reduction in fares and kaboom, profitability is gone in flames.

All primary profit-sucking factors remain constant:
* Lagos traffic √
* Cost of repairs / maintenance √
* Uber/Taxify Commission √
* Bad / unmotorable roads √
* Docs Renewals (comp insurance, licenses etc) √
* wicked riders √

But the constant things about the Profit-making factor is
* Fares are on the decline
* Unreliable surge

This December might have brought some succor in terms of traffic reduction and constant surge, but in like a week's time when the New Year euphoria fizzles out and the tens of thousands of cars that went for village break are back in lagos, then crazy traffic will resume again. I wish I did more research before putting head. Well, that's a story for another day. But my own is, 2019 BAD investments must end ! Bad energy bad investment, stay far away . By the end of 2019, the fence might be as long as Trump's border wall project

All of your Analysis is largely still based on a myopic view which is that of a driver on rentals who naturally would struggle to meet up the weekly rentals whereas most driver partners who own their cars somehow find a way to stay and keep on keeping on it would not be as bad as you pointed out above.For those on the fence...una well done...keep observing....

To think of it self.. More people that are on the fence .. The better for me and my drivers in the long run.. Hopefully more surge and better earnings for my hard work drivers.. So please people that are on the fence. Continue to be on fence ,and you will be highly favor as long as you stay on the fence..

The fence isn't for everyone.

People on the fence are been bombarded with emails, SMS and calls from Uber. They want us back.

Like I said earlier, there are two side to the fence:

1. People on the Fence
2. People at the other side of the fence.

Whenever anyone join people on the fence, 3 people join the business and whenever anyone join people at the other side of the fence more people still join Uber and Taxify.

For us at the other side of the fence, the exit strategy was well timed. It is as if we saw the future when we are about starting the business and don't rejoice about people on the fence, they are busy re-organizing, re-strategize and re-maping their rule of engagement.

In the long run, except you adapt quickly and very flexible, you mightn't outrun some people currently on the fence.

People on the fence aren't sleeping, trust me they are busy resting, recharging, replanning, refreshing with plans of returning.

This is a marathon not a sprint.
