There is no specific or rounded figure. It varies depending on how hard working the driver is. Sometimes there is rush hour, sometimes you won't even see request for hours. Na just game of chance and luck with lots of hard work.
Thank you for your response. We are yet to make a conclusion on the said matter. I am grateful for your response.
InvestmentRe: I Need Someone With A US Bank Account by Samabu07(m): 4:00pm On Aug 27, 2019
I recalled sometime ago my friend who stays in the US gave details of his bank and address to another friend of his...to cut the long story short, he was nearly implicated. That could landed him been deported for nothing he knows about.

Get a Payooner account rather.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: This Was How I Lost A Bank Job Opportunity Yesterday . I Hope It Helps Someone. by Samabu07(m): 10:00am On Jun 20, 2019
AGManuel:
I write this with tears in my eyes but I won't cry because a man is not supposed to.

If really I was such a bad person , I hope to change and live a better life. But to deserve unemployment because of a past situation I found myself in which I couldn't help, I think it's too much for me to bear, but what do I know? maybe I deserve to be unemployed.

But if I tell you I'm not depressed, I'm lieing .

Last year I got a marketing Job with a bank few months after my NYSC when things were extremely hard . Even transport money to go for the training was hard. On the first day of training, on my way home, I lost my phone which was the only thing of value I had then. Safe to say I began the Job phoneless , cashless and frustrated .

Even money to buy bank wears and appear smart or serious was a case . No transport for work, no phone for my work and marketing, no clothes to wear, I'll leave out feeding coz I could control that with starvation or one square meal. My mom was only able to raise small cash for me which most times didn't last a week, transport to and fro was 400 naira, a plate of food was 300, before I get transport for marketing , airtime and transport to call and bringing customers to open accounts and running around on the job which was money intensive, anybody who worked a as marketer before can relate...all these with a huge target of 30 accounts to open and a target of 3 million to bring to the bank.. At least I'm expected to spend 1k a day on the Job which I have not been paid. Remember it was my first month and most banks don't pay in the first month, it's in the second month they combine your salary and pay. Pay was 35k. I was just frustrated.

All these struggles manifested in my performance coz I couldn't deliver and my first two months was a mess coz some days I just couldn't go to work. Sometimes I came to work late coz I had to look for transport money in the morning. Being able to come to work and survive was my main concern then, I fell sick many times out of starvation and it affected my Job. On one occasion or two the Branch manager assisted with stipends when I complained to her about my struggles. Most times the stipends only lasted a day or two but It was a life saver for me coz there was no other option, at least I was able to come to work and eat the next day. Fellow colleagues couldn't help, nobody could, I dropped shame one day in the board meeting and asked for help for we the new staff and how hard it is for us to keep up with the Job. I got nothing.

Not too long after, I resigned to pursue something else . I traveled.

Only for me to come back after 8 months for another bank Job interview and when my former Branch manager was called as a referral, the one I complained to about my struggles and reasons for my underperformance , the same one who assisted me sometimes and this was her reply "He's unserious, indiscipline and unfit for the Job. I was not supposed to hear that but the interviewer put it on loud by mistake and I heard that part before she quickly put the phone off. Immediately I knew I wasn't gonna get the Job.

It hurts me so much, dad is no more, mom a widow, siblings in school calling me day and night for money being the first son and bread winner. If I'm unserious and irresponsible, I can change & become better. No matter the circumstances I faced, I can't make excuses for that. But if I was such a terrible person to deserve unemployment . I let God be the Judge. The interview happened yesterday.

I'm back to the unemployment table guys. My advice to every young hustler out there is to do their best on any job they find themselves no matter the circumstances. But my prayer is for our pasts not to deny us our future bread. We go make am last last.
Kai, the branch manager didn't do well. But let this be put behind you. Don't let depression crave in gradually.
One door closes another must open.
BusinessAre You An Afripreneur Looking To Raise Funds? by Samabu07(op): 11:23am On Jun 06, 2019
I saw this post on Mr Strive Masiyiwa's timeline and decided to share this to good people of Nigeria with projects searching for start up.

Are you an #Afripreneur looking to raise funds? (Part 1)

__Seize the moment… Apply to win!

This week I am going to share some exciting news for many of you. Remember when I said in my recent town halls, “The future is now!”? Well, if you’re an African entrepreneur, there’s not a single moment to lose this month. Innovative opportunities are being created for you to raise “prize capital” like never before in history. This week I will share about two prize contests for African entrepreneurs but you have to move fast.

First, I am thrilled to announce that I will be a judge at the Grand Finale of the Africa Netpreneur Prize Initiative run by the Jack Ma Foundation. This pan-African competition will offer 10 entrepreneurial finalists the chance to pitch their businesses to Jack, myself and a world-class panel of judges in November, for the opportunity to win a share of USD 1 million! Wow!

Do you think your business has the potential to transform Africa and the world? Has it been in operation for at least three years? I want you on this platform to compete to win here!! You have done a lot of homework over the years. Now is your time to go to the next level. To head to prime time.

The Africa Netpreneur competition is open to entrepreneurs of all ages, from all sectors, from across Africa. The application deadline is 30 June. If you haven’t already entered, you must go and learn all the details here: http://www.netpreneur.africa Don’t waste time! You’re going to have to do some work here... fill out an online application about your business, and make three brief videos: one from the company founder, one from a customer and one from an employee. Interesting!

I was so excited to hear that Jack was launching his new Netpreneur Prize this year because his entrepreneurial journey is very similar to what many African entrepreneurs are currently facing.

You know when he got started back in the late 1990s, Jack tells the story how he saw big companies like Microsoft, IBM and Oracle and thought to himself: “They take all the opportunities!!”

But then he had a realization, something similar to what we have talked a lot about on this platform:

__“Most people keep on complaining,” Jack noted, “but if you can solve the complaining, if you solve the problems, then that is the opportunity…”

Sound familiar?

For Jack back then, his “solution” was coming up with a simpler, cheaper technology that could be used by his company Alibaba, and the millions of small businesses he hoped to add to his e-commerce platform one day…

The rest as they say, is history.

You all know Jack is a multi-billionaire now. Like most of you, he started from scratch (When he got started, they wouldn’t even hire him at KFC, he said). Back then, Jack faced big challenges exactly like you do... such as the cost of IT, big competitors, not just big competitors, huge ones! His answer?

#Innovation!

__“We had to innovate", he said. “That’s it, we were forced!”

That was about 20 years ago now… Wow.

Now listen, when Jack and I were getting started, there were no prizes for entrepreneurs like the ones I am telling you about this week, and he has said something that I can really appreciate as you’ll know if you’ve been reading my page for a while:

“Early days were so tough for me,” he said. “Nobody helped us. Today I'm able to help. It would be an honor for me to do this.”

I think this is amazing and I am myself honored to take part as a judge. Like me with the new Generation Africa GoGettaz Agripreneur Prize that we launched in Johannesburg on 30 May (which I’ll tell you all about in Part 2), this is our way of opening some doors to entrepreneurs that we ourselves never had...

As my friend Richard Branson says: “Successful entrepreneurs don’t wait for the perfect moment, they create it.”

The rest is up to you!

To be continued. . .

Technology MarketRe: How To Make Your Mobile Data Subscription Last Longer by Samabu07(m): 10:22am On May 04, 2019
SEONaijaExpert:
Those guys are not considerate in any way. Some of them may be cheap for calling but for data they're just too expensive to maintain.

I make full subscription 2/3 times in a month, and this is something that's expected to last for one month as they say. The new data reduction system is terrible and unfriendly.
This data is killing. Users should have some value for their purchase. I go buy data when I never eat sef. Very annoying.

Don't derail from the thread pls. The poster only shared some error and I concurred to that.
I didn't claim I was above mistake. And that was clearly a grammatical error. When you type on Nairaland sometimes your words get interchanged but the bot.
Can you now have a quiet weekend?

Igbos should be thinking of how to increase exports from the SE like Singapore and not Presidency, all the Igbos want is enabling environment, open the Eastern Seaports and waterways, patronage of their goods by other Nigerians, fix the federal roads and they will be fine.
That's it. South Eastern Govs can do more for her region. An enabling environment can be done and achieved if they sincerely want to go about it.
