peeps4u: Lest I forget, after dropping your rider, don't wait/stop if you go to intl airport. I was caught one day just for stopping to lock my booth which a rider didnt close well. If you have to stop, move out of the entrance gate first.
peeps4u: About lagos road, just don't park by the major road side. Look for open place like front of shops/complexes, hotel, bank. Just avoid parking at major roads. You'll learn with time.
Don't be disturbed by the LASTMA news or getting to know Lagos road, you will be fine sincerely, there is no big deal.
God bless this will help.
Please do I need any other documents or license apart from my driver's license and vehicle papers?
Sometime ago I heard about LADRI and Hackney permit wahala.
Good afternoon everyone. Merry Christmas to each and everyone of us.
I am a here to seek advise. Kindly help me out.
I am a bolt pilot in Abuja for about 2 years now and I want to move down to Lagos to try other thungs but will firstly rely on this Uber/bolt hustle for survival.
In Abuja here. You only need your vehicle papers and DL ... Will I need additional documents in Lagos?
In Abuja over time I have learnt the dos and don'ts and areas not to dare pick rider and I am very familiar Abuja road.
My major challenge is Lagos is that I am not familiar with the road network and fear of NURTw thugs/lastman and all.
I would really appreciate if someone can give me hint of how Lagos hustle is like and tips that might guide me daily.
Neatly used sumec Firman available for sale in kubwa Abuja. The generator hasn't been repaired before Except normal servicing. Everything works perfectly ok

stephenwa: UBER NEW FLEET DRIVER MANDATORY AGREEMENT
Section to Note: 2.5.1
It clearly states that there is NO Employment Agreement nor Partnership, Joint Venture or Agency Relationship between them and us (even though in the entire text, we're called "Partner Driver's"
They conclude by identifying themselves as only a "Limited Collection Agency!"
In essence, what this all means is -
* Uber has Removed themselves (by your agreement) of all of any complicity to pay government any monies towards 'Operational Lisence' or any other form of taxation on us or our vehicles
* They have clearly told you that even though they determine your fare, recieve 25% of ur EVERY EARNINGS, can block, suspend or cancel your account at any time or for any reason they doeem fit....THEY OFFICIALLY DO NOT RECOGNIZE YOU as an employee or partner
* When you click "I Agree", you can hardly Sue them to Court over any issue & win
* When you click "I Agree", you work for them with NO insurance over your limbs, life or vehicle!
JUST TO MY OWN UNDERSTANDING ooh
Thank you..this is really helpful.... I read this too ..
Uber dey mad..... they want to keep collecting 25% and not pay necessary due to the authority.
If Uber no work...another hustle go work. We ain't lazy
BAZ001: I see, VAR decision So they leaked expo and went back to edit it , Nigerians no bother listen to the president again just busy copying and pasting the leaked.
Thank you that's what am trying to say... Not all the leaked broadcast was said which makes it void. The president speech is the that has authority
BAZ001: Yes this is better than NTA with background noise. I didn't hear d selected business part too. Maybe the president skipped it mistakenly, But let me wait for the gurus/analyst here sure there will be an answer to that.
God bless Nigeria , God bless Africa The mind wey USA , France , Italy no get nigeria don move on. Thank God say schools no go resume make students dey house.
He didn't skip it by mistake. What most read us draft speech that was leaked ..I guess the speech was edited later On the broadcast it's 2nd for relaxing lockdown.. buhari said 4th ..not a mistake
BAZ001: Abeg how did you manage to hear him? I tried so hard to pick few sentences. That's why most people are confused btw 2nd or 4th of May. I'm sure not all offices will open
I have posted the link to the video...read the broadcast along with it ..start from 12m/10secs
Felicity0001: Ok, please do but make sure it's has not been doctored.
Unto the main issue on ground now. Lets do justice to the subject matyer at hands which is about restricting movement during day time while allowing only at night.
that's is the link to the video. Please start fast forward to 12.10 ( 12 minutes 10 seconds ) at the same time start reading the news bulletin of buhari from 32.33
Just listen for about 3 minutes in case u don't have enough data and come back to tell me where he mentioned *SELECTED BUSINESS*.
Felicity0001: So you mean to tell me you listened to almost the 70 verses of his entire speech without forgetting any key points?
Hmm bros I hail oooh.
U can choose not to believe. I cant claim that i remember all part. But that *SELECTED BUSINESS* is a key part which everyone looked out for and an certain he didn't say it
Felicity0001: Very intelligent reasoning from you.
I just kept wondering what the present meant with "some selected businesses"
Boss most read the broadcast I listened to him live while following the broadcast word for word. I can tell u buhari didn't mention that part. He didn't say anything about selected business. He skipped that part and start from the B part of the broadcast.
1daboi: really? Can you share the convo like a transcript pls
Uber : This is ****** ( can't remember her name) from Uber payment platform . Is this Mr *****
Me : yes
Uber : how are u, how is your health in this difficult time and how are u managing
Me: my health is perfectly fine but since Uber isn't operational at the moment due to lockdown, I'm very broke just like every other driver/partner cos we ain't earning at the moment and survival is difficult
Uber : sorry to hear that , is there anything u think Uber can do, anything u can suggest
Me: Uber should give us some palliatives , our survival depends on our daily and weekly earnings, since that isn't happing now, Uber should try and give us some palliatives in cash form to cushion the effect of lockdown.
Uber: ok thank you for your time
That was it . .I got a call from 099040623 10:13am
Myfoodwarehouse: Hello, We are an online grocery shop currently looking for drivers to do delivery for our firm. We are part of the essential services allowed by the government so you don't need to worry as we would give you a temporary ID as our contractor. Take advantage of the downtime to make some good money. Our rates for delivery are competitive and negotiable. Send a dm or drop your contact and I would reach out to you.
northbird: Would you rather b a driver DT parted honorably with your principal or one that would be termed
" he owed me rental fees for two weeks and I had no choice but to collect the car"
The "two weeks " being weeks that were practically impossible to make money, but since you are with d car, you have to pay d rent due.
Except off course the social stigma of not returning home with a car and neighbours asking about the whereabouts of the car and not first asking about your own welfare .
northbird: Why not call partner, drive car to his/her house, have it parked. When corona is over. You go back n start from there. Seriously, if I wz a partner, I wud respect my driver for that.
It's not that easy bro.
The fear of not getting the car back would make driver want to negotiate for a lesser remitance and their own survival in this lockdown period night depend on little change they see from the hustle.
peeps4u: I blame him for proposing 15k weekly. He should have simply told his partner about current situation and propose to drop the car.
I told my partner I was going to drop his car due to this corona and slow market, propsed for reduced remittance but I said I was actually taking a break becuase of the virus and the slow or no market now isn't even worth the stress.
The last statement said it all. It doesn't worth the stress at all.
Duru9: I beg I need car for weekly remittance in Abuja
My partner just collected my car from me because I told him this virus is affecting my work I begged him to reduce money he said no
I wonder why some partners are so inconsiderate. In Abuja, there is no request at all. I was outside yesterday from 9am - 2pm ..only made 2k net... I even drove from wuse 2 through gwarimpa ( inside gwarimpa ooo ) till I get to kubwa. No request on bolt and Uber. Both apps were on
It's almost impossible to meet up with weekly remitance in this lockdown period. Partners should try and consider drivers abeg
