Of course the bonus will be gone

What I'm saying is if he drives till 9pm, he is most likely to make more than #5500(whether the bonus goes or not)

Do you understand my point?
Hmmmm, if I loose this bonus it won't be funny.
Even if I will later make 10k, I won't still be happy.
At least it help me pay their commission.

Bro i will like u to advice me on how u go about it pls this is my whatsapp no zero 7 zero 3543 95 forty

Its a numbers game and numbers never lie.

Start early, I start at 6, you have 12 hours only. That's 6 to 6.

For every hour you're online you should be making at the very least 1k, preferably 1k5.
So that bad as e bad, 12k in a day.

One advantage with uber is requests can come from anywhere unlike taxify where positioning is key cos proximity to rider is more emphasized.
Uber also has more riders than taxify, requests are more frequent. (Numbers)
Residential areas in the morning, don't miss the early morning rush, its key. People going to work, school runs etc. 6am-say 10am.
10am depending on where you are, magodo, yaba, Surulere (aguda area is especially hot), ogba aguda (ajayi road side)... These places are high population areas and people here can afford the fares. (Numbers) I don't like ikeja, can be very dry so if I find myself in ikeja I move to those surrounding areas.
Island doesn't have the population but enough people here can afford it so anywhere, except VI, it can be slow in VI around this time. Dolphin is great coz it has a balance of residents and offices. Lekki, you know every here.Lagos island is also good but, it takes guts and wisdom... BE AWARE.
From 4pm, ikoyi, VI, Lekki 1. If you get a long trip, sweet, if na yaba or Surulere, run back to marina and repeat as much as necessary. If na lekki (use alternative route) or Oniru, same. CLOSING.

While on a trip, be thinking in your mind of where to go wait for the next trip.
I never stay in a place more than 30 minutes, if request no enter I move.
NEVER enter traffic for FREE use Google maps ALWAYS before moving.

Reject trips WISELY.
Some people will reject any mainland trip. I say good luck to them.
Lekki to ikeja in the morning and afternoon is at least 2k5 and will take less than 1hr. That 2k5 might take you 2 trips and 2 to 3hrs to make oN the island. Factor in driving to pick up, waiting for rider, waiting for next trip etc. (Numbers)
Similarly, if you're unlikely to get a trip back from there, do not take it. If you don't know the place, check maps to AND FRO then decide whether to go or not. But accept and complete trips, it increases requests that come to you as well.

Have a positive attitude, very very important. It helps in how you relate with your riders. Be professional, cheerful and polite. Doesn't mean kiss ass. Be firm too, don't be drawn into altercations. Have intelligent conversations. I'm happy to talk with a rider who wants to talk and I'm happy to be quiet too, my job is to take you from A to B, nothing more.

No work today, madam isn't feeling well.

Explicitly detailed. Wehdone sir.

Meanwhile as you drive... Be careful and don't over speed because you want to impress or because someone entered your front wrongly without begging.
Don't lose focus of the terms... Pick and Drop successfully is the motto.
Obey traffic signs.
Ensure you maintain utmost security mind at any given time.
Lastly, whatever you believe......
Avoid sex for ride!

Tokunbo foreign used, most of these vehicle are been auctioned out by the owner thus some prices may look too good to be true. Some dealers have vehicles parked in their lots going to 2/3years no sale. Dont be surprised by the prices

Everyone is forgetting this little detail, so I might as well tell you.

Apart from completing 4 trips before 9:00pm, once you have the 4 trips completed, log off (stop driving on) your Bolt account for the rest of today to avoid stories that touch.


Thank you sir!
17 trips completed with 22,000 +4000 weekend bonus in the kitty (Friday 6am -2pm & Saturday 6am -5pm) .

grin grin grin boss u are flexing, u can still do 4 more trips, no wahala as long as its not 9pm yet. Wish I can b like, but d sun ain't just for me

26 trips grin smh 4 Bolt


My Oga, i dey try resemble you ni jare.
The trips were back to back yesterday with 11k in my Bolt wallet as at 1pm but i couldn't bear the hot sun anymore , i was scared that my car might respond to the harsh weather, so immediately i dropped off two unilag graduates at ojota, i just drove back to Maryland.

Woke up to complete the 8 trips this morning and my first trip was to Agbowa Ikorodu, I haven't been there before, but rider (80+ octogenarian mama) took me through the journey. To get a return trip was futile after 40 minutes ,so i picked passengers on the road back to Maryland and the rest is history.

But something happened yesterday that i was grateful to God for. Took a one way route at university road to Unilag entrance and i was nabbed by the police men under that tree .
Didn't know it was a one way and the rider too didn't tell me, after so much bickering, i paid 1k and was told to be careful next time .
Another thing that summed up my week is two riders forgetting their wallet and mobile phones in my car . Thank God i haven't stop by the road to pick late night passengers on my way home, may be i would have been begging for money to pay for what i knew nothing about.

Just do 4 more trips u will be fine, but make sure u accept all your requests even if u won't complete them.


I heed to your advise sir but today was out of it. Out of the 8 trips, i was given, i only had one long trip (Surulere to MM2), the others were annoying 500 naira trips. It got to a point that i wanted to blow empty to the island but then i remember the 4000 naira bonus.

Hi guys, please I need tips on how to increase ground clearance of my 03 camry. It's very close to the ground.

Any tips on tyre size to increase height? Any dangers?
Change your rims from 15 to 16, tyres to 215/65. I'm enjoying my camry that way

Hi Lagos peeps.
Pls Who has heard from Xneg- one of you?
I referred someone to him to do a "fast-track" driver's license.

The boy just reported to me that Xneg is yet to provide a license for him after 44days as against 28days promised on his thread
https://www.nairaland.com/5278001/drivers-license-exactly-28-days

I wouldn't want to assume the worst.


Well he'll get it unless otherwise... My brothers own was 33 Working days against 28 assured. Did it inside Unilag.

Was your brothers' fast track or the normal process?

I actually thought the boy has collected his license long ago only for me to check on him and he's yet to even capture.
