BusinessRe: Lagos Cab Drivers Set To Ditch Uber, Bolt For Indigenous App Companies by wonder233: 8:31am On Jun 10, 2021
Good points you've raised. Let's take them one at a time: "Increased fares"- no, there won't be increased fares to the passengers, in fact the contrary would be the case as they will be trying to break into the market. However, they will charge lower commissions which will enable the driver earn a bit more - same strategy Bolt used on uber at a time uber swore nobody could go lower and still break even, Bolt not only broke even, but making stupendous profits. This brings me to your other point "value of naira"- Now, because these foreign companies benchmark their profits in dollars, a weaker naira means they have to be more ruthless to amass more naira that they will change to dollars and remit outside the country. An indigenous company benchmarks its profits in naira and is not under such pressure, if last year's profits were 1m dollars at N300/$ that's N300m. Now, if that same company makes 400m this year, they will consider it a loss compared to last year cos at N500/$ that will be less than the 1m dollars they made last year. But a Nigerian company will consider it a profit.
Next point "Govt can shut down"- this is not exclusive to local companies, govt can shut down any company operating in Nigeria. You can see what's happening with almighty Twitter.
don4real18:
Increased fares comes with lower patronage & Uber and the likes understand this. An indigenous app that can be shut down by the government to bring out their own ride-hailing app which in turn will lead to loss of jobs. Lower commissions? Have you forgotten that your Naira does not have value out there?

nwigwemark:
From the write up I can understand that the drivers are only interested in Uber and Taxify increasing the transportation fares so that they will get more money.

We are always selfish and I am very sure that this will fail from ab initio because as they leave the platform of Über and Taxify, more drivers will definitely get onboard and I am 10000% sure that the so called local app can never compete with the established companies
BusinessRe: Lagos Cab Drivers Set To Ditch Uber, Bolt For Indigenous App Companies by wonder233: 5:49am On Jun 10, 2021
As a private car owner driving on those foreign platforms, I say this is a most welcome development.
For those expressing fear and mentioning DStv, your fears are unfounded, this is just an app, it doesn't require the same infrastructure that cable tv requires. The key things we've been demanding: a union, passenger profiling, reduced commission, competitive fares and a human faced customer service for drivers. They conveniently ignored.

This country nawa o,if not because of the kind love I dey get from Nigeria women I for don Japa since. No be say I no fit get am elsewhere but I don dey feel like King for here wey simps plenty
Could you believe that a girl came visiting me yesterday and not only did she bring a big cooler of wheat and vegetable soup accosted with different sizes of fish,meat and okporoko and still send me money when I told her I lacked funds not only that she initiated sex with me. I can bet that Over 90% of men have never experienced this kin love from a girl. They are used to spending money and the lady dictating all that happens in the relationship because they don't have the power to give the lady her greatest desire which is good sex. The lady's body may be with them but her spirit is with another man who is banging the living hell out of her.

Posts like these drive people into depression. You make them feel they are not doing enough to get a better life. OP you're using an outdated version of motivational cliches. The new thinking is to continually encourage and inspire and not denigrate. Go and upgrade
Christianity EtcRe: Sunday Service Suspended In SCOAN Over TB Joshua’s Death, Members Weep by wonder233: 8:21am On Jun 07, 2021
Bros the point is anything can be suspended for anything. We lost a labourer at the office due to a car crash and work was suspended for the day. Another time we lost a director, work was also suspended for a day. That's why we are human beings.

Christianity EtcRe: Sunday Service Suspended In SCOAN Over TB Joshua’s Death, Members Weep by wonder233: 10:09am On Jun 06, 2021
C'mon wasn't service suspended for covid? A service can be suspended for anything. In this case a person died.
Juliusmalema:
Sunday Service Suspended because TB Joshua died?

This simply means that the ministry of christ was suspended because a mere mortal passed on.

Even when Jesus was about to die, he told his disciples to always fast and pray, that they shouldn't cry for him but for themselves.

In Jerusalem, he made sure that his church is up and running.


Meanwhile May the soul of the departed rests in perfect peace as he returns to nothingness to give account of his deeds while on earth.

Making a mistake once by voting Buhari in the first time is understandable because Nigerian politicians are despicable, lying sonsofbitches, but I don't understand how this man came into power a second time. I mean, who are those who took their PVC to vote this man in a second time? huh

They are the ones who should be sacrificed to their village idols as a peace offering, not Buhari.

RomanceRe: Indian Bride Dies At Her Wedding & The Groom Marries Her Sister At Same Ceremony by wonder233: 6:50am On Jun 04, 2021
Bro save your political correctness, nobody needs it. The ladies in India and Africa are mere commodities to be bought and sold. It is how it has always been. That is the essence of the bride price practice. Say you don't believe in paying a price on the head of a fellow human being, it is the same females that will lambast you. So my guy, don't be a simp, all hole Na hole

This photo and caption is sick and disgusting bro. Women deserve more respect than this. They're human beings and not holes. Boldly sharing something like this in a public space brings your home training into question. I'm sorry but I had to be blunt.

PoliticsRe: Shock: Malami Tells Buhari To Suspend Constitution, Declare Martial Law- Gazette by wonder233: 10:01pm On Jun 02, 2021
Buahri worshippers won't have a problem with that. I can tell you for a fact that the average northern Muslim and Yoruba Muslim will support it and anything Buhari does wholeheartedly.
If a Yoruba Muslim sees Buhari himself raping his wife and underaged daughter, he will vehemently justify it by arguing that 16years of PDP caused it.
PoliticsRe: APC Inherited Insurgency From A Clueless PDP Government by wonder233: 9:51am On Jun 02, 2021
This is what delusional Buhari worshippers tell themselves. No matter what happens, this is what they will still say.
If an election was conducted today with Buhari on the ballot, those who voted for him before will still vote for him: to the average northerner, he is an ethnic hero, to the southwesterner especially the Muslims among them, he is a god.
Unfortunately, these two categories eclipse the rest of us sane people

SportsRe: Tennis: Osaka Fined $15000, Faces "Expulsion" For Not Granting Media Interviews by wonder233: 7:03pm On May 30, 2021
This has nothing to do with "mental health". She is just a snub, a psuedo-woke one at that. The classic trademark is in deploying vague terms like "mental health". You read through her write-up, she ended up saying nothing. To those saying "she is campaigning for change", okay, the organisers reached out to you, isn't that the perfect opportunity to table what specific issues you have?
You play tennis for a few years and you suddenly think the world revolves around you? Where do you think the millions you're paid is generated from? Those same Tv/media broadcast rights!.
Like someone said, many people don't feel like waking up on Monday mornings to go to work, but they do it anyway cos they have to.
They should invoke the other relevant sanctions and yank off the snub.
