If you are driving for yourself, then it's okay. You will still make good money on the platforms.

Uber and Taxify has being giving me sleepless night recentely,honestely i want to give this business a try early next year, am currentely in a business that pays me 2k daily, pleas guys what advice will you give to someone that wants to join this business new considering :
He does not know much area in lagos and abj
He is entirely new to transport business
He is young(below 30)
A degree holder
He has one million naira(1000000) as capital

Pleas suggest a good car this amount can get,and a better city to do this job between abj and lag.
Can i combine Uber and Taxify?
Thanks.

Looking around, I'm sure a lot of us fit your demographic. Young, upwardly mobile, with a little capital, looking for something to do. I would like to say I was in your shoes once, but I can't, because to be honest, I'm currently in your shoes.
As I found out, not knowing the roads in your city is not a big deal. many uber drivers started out that way, today, they themselves are city maps. There might be a few minor hiccups initially, but you'll get good eventually. What you can do is be honest upfront with your rider, they are usually more than willing to help guide you, especially if you are polite.
Driving on the platform has so many other benefits but I'll just focus on the money.Normal rental fee in Lagos is between 35-40 grand per week, 25-35 in Abuja; divvy that and you have about 5k per day, definitely an improvement on your current earnings.
Speaking of cars to buy, if you can get a good Hyundai for below 900 grand, that would be a coup. Hyundais seem to be the direction of choice for ridesharing cars nowadays. Affordable, economical and marginally rugged. You can register the vehicle with sub 50 grand. Purchase everything you need for Uber and still have some change left for fuel.
You might want to think about purchasing the Guide to Uber for Partners and the Guide to Uber for Drivers, they are books I wrote to help you gain better knowledge about ride sharing, a sort of Key Points if you will.
There's a massively discounted rate waiting for you if you choose to accept the offer.
Cheers and Good luck.
