Have You Ever Considered Learning Truck Driving? by antimason(m): 3:56pm On Apr 25, 2021 |
hello guys, I am Abdulkabir from Edo state, my journey into the world of trucks came about after a misfortune I faced, at one time I was a student in Uniben department of Animal science under Agricultural faculty, I left school without differing the admission to travel abroad, An Ill fated trip that got me touring the airport in Turkey waiting for my transit flight to Ukraine. I later got deported from turkey for fake visa and all my attempts to reintegrate into school proved abortive. hence I was left with either retrying to gain admission or find a way to fend for myself, so having decided to learn a vocation, I was interested in learning computer programming but funds was not available so I had to learn something more cost effective, other handy works I could learn required a certain capital and I was dead broke as I had been abandoned by my father who was my sole sponsor. so I had to look for a skill to learn, still be earning while learning and have a greater prospect of meeting up with living standards at its culmination. Now I am a certified truck driver currently employed by Ardova plc. DM me with your questions in anything related with trucks. 66 Likes 6 Shares |

Re: Have You Ever Considered Learning Truck Driving? by antimason(m): 6:49pm On Apr 25, 2021 |
felixzo1:first of all you would have to have all the time in the world to learn it as you would have to be going to travel with your master (as the drive who is teaching you would be called by you), in most places its free to learn but recently some drivers have started collecting acceptance fees citing the laxity of supposed learners(also referred as conductors), you can master it from like 6months to unlimited years depending on your zeal and will,and also depending on the master, how willing is he to rush you in attaining the skill . 41 Likes 4 Shares |

Re: Have You Ever Considered Learning Truck Driving? by boykas(m): 8:10pm On Apr 27, 2021 |
felixzo1: well, six years in trucking has not been easy, bad roads, tout, police or army brutality and so on... that's the negativity around it. but if you know ur way, you are ready to go... school or training centres for trucks.. I don't think we have them except the one my colleague discuss earlier. it's been Iong I learnt truck when I finish my ordinary national diploma with the polytechnic ibadan year 2009. after schooling, I became a conductor for 3years. though I stopped at a time and I came back after my first child in 2014. . 48 Likes 1 Share |

I don't know if you can assist me to learn it,and I want to be certain if I can get a job immediately I'm done learning. so I'm ready to come to learn or be your conductor. it's better than scamming or begging online.
