These are the kind of self defeatist people you should avoid if you want to be successful in life.

People that easily give up and never work to get better ever in their lives. Avoid these people at all cost, lest they bring you down with them.
You are the one that is self defeating, because you won’t stop for a sec to analyze the problems, but just keep on trucking blindly like the horse from the animal farm.

Why is it so difficult to understand that you were conquered and forced together, not by your own will, but by the will of your conquerers?

Like so you will wake up early, get dressed, line up under the hot sun, all for what? So that you can install another disaster? A disaster that might even take dollar to 1000 naira.

Do you guys know what dollar at 1000 or above would even mean? Your 200 naira will almost become useless, in fact, it’s already getting there.

I truly am amazed at Nigerians seemingly unlimited capabilities to suffer and smile.

Someone will now ask me, who is my candidate? Well not the devil, that’s for sure!

Sigh, Naija, my people. The only country were their security forces engage each other. In other places, police fight criminals, but here you will see police in gun battle with soldiers, or police vs lasma, or frsc vs soldiers... no law, no order, no coordination, no consequences, no change to the status quo.

Best advice to car owners that’s doing ehailing as full time in this January is…….

1. Park your car at home Tuesday to Friday
2. Hustle only Monday and weekends
3. Go to Coursera/udemy etc find a good course you can do that’ll develop your skill.
4. For people below 40yrs you can still apply for ui/ux or graphics designer at least be doing 4hrs a day and use this moment to eat well and rest well.
5. Whatever you’ve made in December, buy 50k worth of foodstuffs at home pay half of school fees and replan yourself on how to embark on new journey
6. Keep this in mind, ehailing is just to keep body and soul together. look for better things to do
7. Buhari has advised every youth to go into farming… so get connected to your friends in the village and plant maize/okra/tomatoes etc on large scales
8. Start something new (open a viewing center with budget of 200k to 300k if you get better location you can open a viewing center)
9. Game stations shop (buy 2 ps2 and 2 ps3 consoles, find a shop in a secondary school environment, buy uk used 20inchs tv 4 pieces with 250k you set up this and small generator) whatever you generate from here, save it.
10. Start looking for job
11. With weekends hustle you can be saving 30k
12-1000. Ehailing is just to keep body and soul

Have a great day ahead
Just had to say that there are some very good pieces of advice in this piece, especially always learning, but sometimes ones self discipline fails along the way, sigh, but gotta keep pushing by Gods grace!!

Trips that used to be like 1,500-2,000 are now like 800.

I can barely even buy petrol and eat with such fares.

Then it’s also like there are hardly any rides, unlike before when requests were coming in non stop.

Is this how it’s gonna be now?

Even indriver is boring, no requests. 6 drivers all setting offers for the only good trip I saw today, plus me that makes 7 drivers.

Indriver na one kind app

As my rating don drop to 4.3 from 4.82 on bolt i say make i try my hands on Indriver dey prep my first blocking on bolt

First request on indriver rider was going to egneda from lekki phase 1 for 7500

As i pick got to pu rider tell me say she no go again say there's traffic

Indriver don debit their commission sharp sharp

I come load my Indriver wallet with 1k

D second day i see ijegun from surulere the guy put 2560 i put 3500 cos i dey find trip wey go carry me go my house side for igando axis and bolt no gree give me destination trip guy man accept fast fast

Got to pu guy man put some loads for my boot come out with two other people still waste my time for like 25 to 20mins join. I just say make i chill hoping bolt destination trip will come in. Finally he came out

As we enroute destination he started saying bro pls stop here pls let me pick this let me buy this let me do this i still chill

As we reach ijegun bstop him say na ijagemo side

I said hell no

The road no good no be my car u go spoil i no dey go

Him start say he wont pay me full money or i take him and he will add something i told him straight Bleep ur extra fare pay me what u want he said he will pay me 2k

Immediately i remember my wheel spanner commot am sharp bro paid 3k and dropped asap!

Meanwhile why bolt never block me yet?
As in, indriver can be soooo annoying.

Why will they charge the driver when the passenger doesn’t show?

So let’s say a driver drives 5km to pick up a rider, spent 10mins in traffic, now gets there and the passenger doesn’t show, why should the driver now get charged?

Granted they will tell you that it would be refunded in 10 days, but why will they even charge you at all? Bolt and Uber don’t do that.

So I burn my petrol and my time and I still get charged when a passenger doesn’t show, it’s insane.

Then the indriver riders will just be wasting your time. At least on bolt, after 5 mins you enter paid waiting, but since there is no paid waiting on indriver, the riders will be taking forever. Some riders sha, so I should wait 20 minutes for you for free? Because of what na?

When I use indriver, I tell the riders that I will only wait 5 minutes, then I set my timer on my phone as soon as I arrive. Even today I was telling this girl on the phone on my way to her pickup to please, please, be ready that I am so and so minutes away and I will only wait 5 minutes once I arrive.

I arrived and at 5 minutes and some seconds I cancelled as I hadn’t seen her, then as I was about to leave, she came out, but I had already cancelled.

Why can’t people order rides when they are ready to leave? Some don’t value your time at all. It’s like since “the cab is here”, the cab will be there forever... makes no sense.

So you suffered this much to the point that your friend arrived far away London before you were able to drive a few kilometers.

Yet you will keep singing praises to your oppressors who have never once thought about enforcing traffic rules and allow for total chaos and madness on Lagos roads.

In the country your friend is going to, don’t police patrol and pull erring drivers over?

But here in your zoo/jungle, would your children even know what it means to get pulled over? The proper pull over with a chase and sirens and not checkpoints.

You Nigerians see the problems but for whatever reason, you will fight to keep the problems and make them worse, instead of making moves to eliminate the issues.

Dsalvo:
That is lawlessness not illiteracy. Brits and Americans would be lawless too if the law is not efficient and punitive against misconduct in the UK and USA.

When a judge sells judgment in Nigeria, to set a rich murderer free, is that illiteracy too?

Let us learn to put things in perspective. Nigerians. As Africans, are exemplarily accomplished when it comes to educational prowess.

We should not confuse lawlessness, aided mainly by bad and very corrupt governance, to mean illiteracy or lack of intelligence.

Getting governance right is the prerogative of all of us and not leaders alone.
Yes you are right that it is lawlessness, but I believe it’s born majorly out of illiteracy.

If we were an intelligent race, we would have made moves by now to enforce laws like how the white man enforces laws.

Do you know what I faced yesterday? A two lane road was completely blocked by one way drivers, such that we were all at a standstill, I mean who does that? Only monkeys?

Only subhumans would completely block oncoming traffic for miles, by forming a one way lane on the lane of incoming traffic. Only animals would do that bro!

Because common sense in the absence of law enforcement would at least tell people that if you drive on the lane for incoming traffic, such that you now have a queue of cars, there would be no way for traffic to move and instead of a journey that would have taken 15 minutes with an orderly queue, everyone is now stuck there “indefinitely” or for hours until the senior monkeys arrive to try to ease traffic.

PoliticsHow Can Lagos Allow One Way Drivers To Block A Whole Road? by VaselineCrew(op): 9:31am On Dec 30, 2021
Omo I suffered small yesterday on a street around lekki phase 2.

The street that is normally a two lane street had been blocked totally by one way drivers creating 2 lanes going in the same direction instead of the usual two lanes going in opposite directions.

Chai, black man!

Imagine it wasn’t just one or two cars, but the whole road was filled with emboldened one way drivers, such that they had blocked the movement of people that are supposed to use that lane.

That’s how everywhere was just at a standstill.

Why are we so animalistic in this country?

So you can’t queue up, instead you decide that you will use the lane for oncoming traffic to bypass the queue. Then other animalistic drivers follow your move until the whole street becomes a nightmare because there is now nowhere for cars to go.

Why can’t they understand that it is better to be in a queue that will eventually move faster than blocking oncoming traffic leading to a COMPLETE AND UTTER STANDSTILL.

The things that you citizens do in this country ehn, God forbid!

After changing my compressor and condenser recently, I have now changed my engine mounts that were making the car vibrate so so bad. The vibrations were bad men, almost like the engine was gonna fall apart, lol.

Out of the four, one was so bad, all the rubber had gone off. The other three are pictured below.

You can see how they have tears in them and the one with hydraulic fluid inside was busted from below. So you can imagine how the mounts with the tears were when the weight of the engine was on them. They probably were just giving way allowing for almost metal to metal contact.

Honestly I can’t believe this is my same car. So smooth in reverse and drive now, you hardly know the engine is on.

Now we move on to the suspension and transmission fluid, chai!

I just want to be able to save without dropping so much on my car.
