You will do well to stop attacking people with abuses and I expect others not to attack you as well. You always state your facts based on your experience which is very good. Try to avoid calling people names and putting people in a bunch and abusing them.

Respect is reciprocal!

I've been reading everyone's opinion on strikes and all that. But here's my take on the issue

IT CANNOT WORK. THE DAY IT WORKS, ITS OVER FOR E-HAILING IN THIS COUNTRY

Let us look at it from the App companies view

1) They have so many cars on the platform. Bolt has over 2000 cars registered. The only they can supposedly keep all of them in business is to get more rider. Yes, MORE RIDERS. And how can that be achieved? Low fares

2) The primary reason (I stand to be corrected) why a large number of people use uber and bolt is because IT IS CHEAP. Forget comfort that we all shout. Gbagada to Ikeja is like #1000. Even a bike or Danfo won't charge that for a charter. Some of the riders you pick have cars in their compounds, yet they request you, and yoh think it's comfort? Nah I don't think so

Imagine Uber and Bolt increasing the fare. A lot of us here won't do 20 trips in a month. Look at your ride history. It's filled with trips from #500 to #1500. Increase the fare and see all those people disappear

We live in a Third World, where the gap between the rich and poor is wide, and where the percentage of low income earners are far more higher than we can imagine

Uber/Taxify can only survive here if they make the middle class and low income earners a priority.

And after driving the whole of Lagos, going home with 20k a week is the ultimate for you right? People earn 100k monthly doing a fraction of the job you do as a driver and the money is not enough and now you're bragging and calling others lazy. E go soon tell for your body.

jesusson2020:


If you fall in the category of lazy and greedy, yes you will attack me.

I didn't mention anybody here, so if your conscience disturbing you, not my problem.

Epphy:


The writeup summarizes what the situation very well. But if fares can't be increased, some other things can be done to improve the income of drivers like bonuses (with less difficult conditions) and reduction of commission to about 10-12%.

uber/bolt in one phone at the same time

you people have confuse me finish....I thought uber don't allow dual sim phones(especially tecno and infinix)

izzou:

MeshachMARTINS:
but you and Mjosh1000 are using the brands na

izzou:


I do only Bolt and they don't have such stringent restrictions like Uber

People use it. But the model is the issue. A good number of models of those brands have been axed by Uber. So make sure the one you're using is accepted before you buy it

jesusson2020:


I eat in mama put, one plate of food is 300naira
I save 20k weekly.

Private driver earn 30k monthly, company driver that I know of that driver to kano, gombe, kogi and Eastern part of Nigeria on weekly basis earn 50k monthly, I was even advising the guy to come join Uber.

Most of you have aged in this job without achieving anything, that's why the laziness and greediness comes in play.

Crvrider:


Please where did you get yours done? I was charged 15k for mine.

Guys, brace up for more expensive uber rides, uber is going iPo and this means fares are likely to increase very soon.
This is good news for drivers as will surely favour the drivers and car owners. The riders will adjust to it. It is very common that we Nigerians like cheap thing.
But the sustainability of uber in Nigeria is tied to the harmony between the drivers and riders.
The Management must understand this!
I intend injecting a car into this business hence my research. Any good driver should send me a PM. I will reply with my nos.

My brother he will call you lazy o. Grossing 20k weekly is an achievement for a graduate labourer.
