So today, being 1st Monday and 1st day of the month, I started work late, I was just resting due to the weekend stress cuz I’m always on the road through out the weekend.

I decided to set destination to ajah from mushin then when I get to island, I set destination back and close for the day.

While destination was on, a request came in from ladipo market to igbo efon, I was happy cuz I knew that would give me nothing less than 3k, on getting to PU, rider asked if I can deliver 2 Tyres to someone at igbo efon, in my mind, I said this is a big opportunity for me.
I asked the rider if we can run it offline and rider agreed without feeling reluctant, he asked for my price and due to fear of overcharging people, I asked for the highest estimates and he said 3400 then I demanded for 4K for the offline, He agreed without pricing.

He made a call to the receiver and told him my price, that moment, I just realized I could carry someone going to island along with the tyres, then I started waiting for request on inDriver going towards island, but I went back home while I was waiting for the request to come.

I had waited for about 10mins and didn’t see any request going towards island then I decided to set destination back to ajah on bolt.

Just few min after setting destination to ajah, a request came in on inDriver to agungi with an offer of 3k, I quickly accepted the offer before another driver did and the rider accepted mine too.
I was about calling the rider when another request came in on bolt going to island also but I couldn’t say where exactly on the island so I 1st called the bolt rider to ask where he/she is going and she said agungi, and inDriver rider was heading to agungi also, in my mind, I said I will run the 3 trips at once.

When I checked pickup location of the 2 riders, they were actually on same street but one at the beginning while the other at the end of the street, I was like see how God made this so easy for me.

I went to pick the inDriver rider 1st and explained to her, she agreed without feeling insecure, in my mind, I was like this is easy mehn,

The other rider was waiting for me at the filling station on the street, when I got to her, she opened the door and realized someone was sitting beside me at the front, she thought she entered the wrong car and wanted to go down but I stopped her and explained to her, she was feeling so insecure and wanted to drop but I convinced her and she agreed reluctantly to go with us but online.

In my mind, I was like who mind if it’s online or offline, so far you are going to pay me for the trip, then I’m making triple on a single trip.


Both the inDriver rider and bolt rider were actually going to like 2 estates away from each other but inDriver estate came 1st while the bolt rider estate is the next junction but I decided to drop bolt rider 1st since it was online, her trip ended on 2800, she made a complete transfer of 2800 and I went to drop the inDriver rider and she paid in full her 3k offer too.

Remember I still have 2tyres in the trunk to deliver, drove straight to Igbo efon from agungi, told receiver the traffic was really mad and I would have done the trip online cuz it would have read more due to the traffic but actually, there was no single traffic cuz I didn’t leave immediately, due to how I talked to him, rider paid me 5k instead of 4K we agreed.

That’s how I killed 3 birds with a stone and made 10800 on a single trip and I didn’t use up to 1500 fuel to cover the trip.
You get mind sha

You must have had a good persuasive skill to convince both riders and for them to even pay full fares for you. But no dey pull this stunt all the time, you wont get lucky with most riders and get reported for that.

Hello I am about to start uber driving. They say we should get a single sim phone. Thing is I have a dual sim Samsung A21s, I am wondering if I will not get any issues using it or if I completely put off sim 2 and use only sim 1 will that be ok?

You don’t have any issue using dual sim, your phone is good to go for the job.

Here you have the answer for that audacity.

It all depends on how you explain to them, many times I do that, they don't sense red flag and make sure while explaining, your facial expression looks real and innocent...
Lolz, I do get tips from many of my riders with my facial expression.

You just have to be more careful bro. I have been driving for years before I started driving on ehailing and in my first two months, I had two near accidents that I've never had in previous years of driving. One that shook me was a woman I hit while I was reversing to pick a rider.

Last time I saw her from my right side mirror, she was standing on the walkway and the next time I saw her, she was on the floor behind my vehicle, I had hit her. According to eye witnesses, she didn't see me reverse and just crossed the road. Thank God it was just bruises and nothing serious.

I quickly realised driving on ehailing is different from what I've been driving since. You have to pay more attention, be more careful and never take your eyes completely off the road.

May we not spend money we are hustling to sustain our families on court cases that will not bring back the dead.

My first month on this job. I picked a rider around Fela shrine going to Magodo, like 10minutes into the drive I realised I did not start trip. I was just trying to swipe 'start trip' before I realised I had bashed d corrola Infront of me while that one went to collide with an incoming vehicle. The third guy pardoned me but I fixed the corrola, even painted it. The front of my car was a total disaster.
This thing takes less than 2 secs.

Nope... But I bought a Tokunbo battery there for 14K around September last year and it's working well for me.

It may have increased though, you'll just have to go there to confirm.

Then again, you live close to the market. You fit just stroll go there go check.

Thank you guys, I am very thankful to God Almighty that I escaped the attack of the devil today. The devil wants to put me into trouble but God showed me mercy. From the comments, some think I wasn't careful or maybe I should rest but believe you me, this life is a battle. It can't be a coincidence that I experience such things 3 times in a row within the space of 30mins. I could have killed someone today and it will be tagged manslaughter. I don't even have money to pursue this case and God knows it wouldn't have ended well but God had mercy on me and I am thankful.
It's time to get closer to God Almighty and be very prayerful. It's today I believe 100% that God got my back and I will get back to God the way he expects me to.
We all need to be prayerful so that the devil will not attack us and put us in danger.
I will not be put into trouble to kill someone in my life and so shall it be for you too.
God bless our huzzle

Lol @ escaped the devil. I don’t know why we humans like blaming our errors on the supernatural.

I keep thinking how a child’s head will roll perfectly underneath your tire without your notice. Guy na street you dey o. Wise up!
