Hybrids are generally cheaper than Corolla in Nigeria today. Leave electric vehicles for now till our federal government repairs Nepa
They're not that cheap like you think oh... Jiji the Toyota Prius now you'll hardly find a tokunbo up for sale the only one you'll see is selling at 1.7m above while tue other once you'll see are naija used, I bet you don't wanna go the naija use way for a hybrid or EV. Even the 2014 model is above 3.5m so tell me how that is cheap. If the hybrid and EV cars are ok like you think then you should be worried why Nigerians are selling off a 2008 model car that has barely done 150k-miles |

I have always said this. If you want to know your actual rating, ask your rider to show you your rating on their app. The rider app displays the actual rating.
I was once on 4.75 and got two terrible riders back to back and I was sure I'm getting one star from both. When I got home, my rating was still on 4.75 but I knew it was a scam.
Fired up my rider app, booked myself and guess what I saw? 4.5. I know from experience that the actual rating is below 4.5 but bolt approximates to the nearest decimal. I knew that the bolt hammer was coming and I'm getting blocked.
I went out immediately and did my thing. By the time I was done, booked myself again and I started seeing 4.6. In all of these, my rating was still displaying 4.75 on my own app. If I had not been smart about it, they would have just shown me 4.4whatever one day and blocked me immediately. That your thing dey help oo, but only for those wey know. |

If the hybrid and EV cars are ok like you think then you should be worried why Nigerians are selling off a 2008 model car that has barely done 150k-miles N1.7m for a tokumbo Prius is still cheaper than its Corolla counterpart and of course the only reason why people sell off their Prius is MOSTLY because it’s having electrical issues not engine or suspension or gearbox etc problems. Auto electrical issues though daunting can be troubleshooted by a competent mechanic who knows his onions. That 2010 and above Prius is overkill for Uber here. I’d do an older model first even if it might come with slightly degraded batteries 1 Like |

Uber11: Hello guys good morning , pleas read this and advice me.......
i posted sometime ago that i was looking for apartment in lagos ,you guys really helped and that settled it..i appreciate the effort here
so i was on buying a car ....someone i don't know called me from here that he works with Road safety,and he can help me process my drivers license, we agreed on 40k, i sent the money to him so from there we started talking ....when i bought my car ,i needed change of ownership and new pappers for the car to be clean on the road , he requested for 45k and i just paid him that too....... but since then is over a month now ,is from one story to another ,because i am not in lagos and i don't want to waste my money coming to lagos and it will be that the things are not ready ...i asked about the documents and the new plate number ,he told me they are ready, i asked him to snap them pictures and send to me so i can be sure the whole thing is ready, since then is from one story to another........i want you guys to reason with me on this ,what could be going on, is it a Scam? This is why we say people shouldn't post sensitive details here, many are viewing quietly with evil intentions. You should have come here to confirm first before sending a dime, someone here too has been duped by that same road safety format so we would have warned you. You can drop his number, maybe his identity can be revealed |

Please anyone with similar experience before kindly advise please.....the car na Honda CRV 2000 your gear oil is overheating. change it with an original oem brand asap. and for other drivers in the house, if you know you want to use your car for uber for up to 2 years steadily and not have to worry about your gearbox solenoids and lubrication for that period and far longer than that then i suggest you invest in an EXTERNAL GEARBOX OIL COOLER and maybe an extra mini fan for it for those times your are stuck in traffic for hours. 5 Likes |

Felicity001: The uber11 guy is not even smart at all.
How would somebody you don't know contact you on the phone and told you he'll do driver's license for you and you went ahead to send 40k to him?
1) do they do captioning for people? 2) how much is drivers license that one would agree to pay 40k for? 3) you suspect you've been scammed instead of you to first wait to arrive Lagos then try trace the person and if not fruitful then you blow up his cover but no, you already blow up his cover even while being far away.
This is just like the case of a police blowing syren from their station down to a robbery scene, won't the robbery gang run away before they arrive?
The annoying part is, he doesn't want to mention the persons name.
These are the reasons izzuo always advise against putting up personal phone number(s) on cyber space because these yahoo boys can take advantage of it.
Going forward only respond to people that DM me from here for one or two reason i will only release my mobile number to them if need be especially those that have never made any comment here before. You are right, that was a big mistake, the thief (sorry if he's genuine) will now be one step ahead of him. I have been scammed on Instagram before, after I discovered it was a scam, I'm sure the guy was monitoring my page to see if I will call him out or post any details, he was relaxed until I caught him before and now posted his details. A lot of young men are into fraud, one just needs to be very careful because you can't be too smart. 4 Likes 3 Shares |
