Which govt are you supporting.

Do you know the ripple effect of these ABRUPT policies.

Let's assume there are 5,000 motorcycles n rickshaws ( they far outstrip that figure)

That simply means over 5,000 people ( including women keke drivers) will lose their jobs just like that.

Are you looking @ d multiplier effect, all these drivers have families depending on that source of income

And all of a sudden, that income stream would be taken away.

You support govt taking jobs from people in a country where getting a job is almost a miracle. Common!

Come to think of it. Let's leave the keke n okada for now.

Are there alternatives for moving around without d Rickshaws.

For instance, if d ban takes effect, how will commuters move from ogba to Allen junction/ Berger/ opebi.

I'm asking YOU. Can you suggest how commuters will move henceforth?


Can everybody afford cabs?
. But @ least most pple can afford d #50/ #100 for dose short distances.

How many pple in Lagos can pay #400 for a short distance.

Forget all the hype about money in Lagos, majority of people in Lasgidi are just struggling.
I mean A LOT of pple are just getting by.

These are things you shd think of before supporting a policy that will eventually fail.

Let us be guided

I am not supporting the government neither am against them but let me just say this. Bikes and Keke was stop on major express road where our regular danfo plus. And they are not banned in streets where danfo cannot play. So let's take note of this before arriving at any conclusions.
Bike and Keke will still run in trade Fair mkt, inside festac and somany other places. So nobody is taking away food from anyone.

GidiWoodsMan:
this is an unreasonable deal.

if the driver met up every single week out of 1.25 years he'd still be short by N448k. most of these hp deals are set up to rip off gullible people.

Please sir. can you show me a working on how you arrived to this cause I felt am wrong in my own calculation. I got 600k+ as balance after a year and 3months on 3m total amount...

[color=royalblue]Its a pity no one is considering the woman.

The same people advising him to plead for part of his deposit, will be the same people that will advise a driver not to take a Naija used car on HP. [/color]

Thank you very much bro. So accurate

Crookesmore:

NYCnextStop:
nice one bro

What car are you using for ehailing.., the interior looks fresh

dru23 abeg help my brother even though we dont agree sometimes. Thanks in advance

E done do for una. I no ask for ur help. Better person, Mtcheew. Too much of everything.

The truth is, I don't think any owner wants to give out his or her car for midnight hustle. Daytime-EarlyNight hustle is already as risky as it can get. Now telling an owner, after he has invested #1.5 - #1.9 million on a tokunbo car that you will be using it for midnight jobs ... mba.

"I will get back to you" is what you will keep hearing; you no go see car.

My opinion, though.

It depends bro. All time is dangerous in this hustle, but u should know it's less dangerous when u refuse offline trip. I have someone that has never go offline and never have a problem for once. Though he drives with army facecap

ofime123:
this one you are always emphasising on mid night do u think people make that much in mid night? to top it all working at mid night not safe for u. Abi na witches and wizard u wan dey carry? uhhh

Say what is good and bad for you. I will talk for myself. You don't know me and I don't know you... Thanks

dru23:
Am trying to do so much with little time... I will see what I can do ....it is not easy at all, but it will be easy IJN

Lol @logra. don't know if u are looking out for me genuinely or mockingly so I can have my own share of experience, though have already had experience cause I have drove for sometime. but whichever it is thanks man for looking out. And thanks for the advice, believe me I take note of the good and bad side of the hustle, most especially the bad side. So I won't be taking by surprised, since I am working not only day but also midnight (12am to 4am). Abeg no attack me @bolded o, just teasing.
Plus thanks Dru for having me in mind...

Gentlelife50:
Na for people wey no know am

So now who una come the blame naw? Una leave Angryman wey condemn the job come face Dru wey the try to quote am wrong... So in other words, we shud follow Angryman instead of Dru's advice right?

dru23:
My brother work na wrk whether hard labour or mental labour.. The most important thing is to make the best out of it ... People that work in the oil rig na hard labour and very d's dangerous job .. The pay is good and it will tell on your body .. But again the smart ones will do it for few years save money and move on to better things ...Some will use that job as a steeping stone to move on bigger things....

Funny enough I was on YouTube watching Bloomberg business segment... And Aliko Dangote was been interview.. The interviewer ask how he was able to set up the refinery project.. He said he started with importation of cement and importation he wanted to set up cement factory ... So with the money from importation he was able to build his own cement factory.. And he said from there he was able to set up the refinery.. Everything is done by stage and plan.

So if the Uber driver plans very well , he can save enough money and buy his own car . And before you know it he will save enough money buy more cars and employ people to drive for him .. There are many successful stories like that, take Chocharis for example no be menial job he was doing before he got to where he is today....

And at the early stage of Uber five years ago. There is an uber driver name Ogunvick and a guy called Romeo. Those guys started as drivers and before you know it they were managing cars for a lot partners they were going to the North buying Peugeot cars .. They manage cars for far back from the North. They will buy the cars from the North drive down to Lagos. They employed drivers manage them etc . At one time these guys had about at least 10 cars under them .. But due to only God knows the business fail due to some shady things among the two partners of the business.. One partner register the business and made the other partner think that he is also a co owner of the business.. Some crazy stuff was going on sha ....it was crazy...... So my point is whether na labour job or mental job you dey do. Na you know your own goal and plan.. Nobody go hold your hands o .. Another example, you will see some of these Igbo boyz selling parts. Some of them will start with a small shop selling parts. Some will even sleep inside shop, before you know it that boy has open up his own warehouse shipping containers of parts. So my brother am done for these topic ..no be mouth person fit they talk everything o .. If you know ,you know ....as we dey type and post up and down . Some uber drivers are making money and planning their week on how to make more money o

All work na work, what matters more is your determination and what drives you. In my case I stay awake at home from 12am till 5am doing nothing. Just downloading and watching new movies on my phone, believe me I do this 5am every morning, that's one of the things that pushed and motivated me into taking the step of wanting to be an Uber driver cause of Uber night activity, Which is also legit couple with the fact that am an Ex Ex-Boy also born and broughtup in military barrack also went to military school (I have all the military backup I can ever need on myself and car) Uber is the only night duty one can venture into in Nigeria without being harass by police or any force and without working for any boss. (I only know of Uber. If there is any other legit night duty, I do not know about that yet) unlike bikes (okada).
Plus I am still in need of a vehicle for either HP or Rentals, if u guys have any available should please link me up. I reside at Satellite town. Around Festac Town. Thanks

shaklisco:
good afternoon bro,please I really need some insight about this Uber business and I will really appreciate if you can help me out with few questions this is my WhatsApp number 08054597967 I will also appreciate if I can have your number thanks

That's a big mistake bro. Wrong person to ask for insight. He will tell you instantly to give and go look for job. Bro, if u really wants to do enhailing, my Advice stay away from Angryman aka badenergy

Chinese in dangote refinery will gladly accept it

Hahahah. Can't stop laughing

dru23:
The thing about the angryman that I see is that ,if you keep the samething over and over again. And you dont see any changes to better your situation.. Than do something else that will give u better result ....nobody is telling him he must die there and do Uber

I think angryman is just being frustrated. That was how he attack me cause I was looking for HP. He is just looking for where to pour out his anger. I use to listen to his advice but I now see that he is just being frustrated. �

nitigriti:
I see what you did there, ma.

But seriously, Dru23 is one of the wisest guys on this thread. I take everything he says seriously; including the memes.

baba go sleep inorder to wake early and turn on your bolt app as usual

I concur bro... I hate this discouragements upandan. Why people in other group are busy giving testimonies... Tojahh for example got his next step of livelihood through this job and other people too, but that's not my concern. To me driving is like fun. And I don't see it as full time job. So no matter how people paints it negative, I won't listen. So many people on here became car owner through 30k weekly remittance for 2years or less. Mtcheew. Abeg, please peeps let's not be discouraged by the negative post except those that wants to become full time Uber drivers... I am open for tatrums.

And how is that my business but one u should know "you are of no importance to even ur family" you are a disgrace to father's in general.

As old as you claim, all u know best is to banter word with a little kid, infact your mumu the smell. I wish I could see you in person to see how stupid u look. Street Buffon like u.
