Felicity001:

if it's about the distance I'll say it's very OK. but from your explanation it's sounds like a two day job, meaning you guys will be leaving in the morning and returning in the evening of the next day. If that's the case guy that money too small.
But if you sabi them and you know your accommodation and security is guaranteed and you feel it's play by you? Why not! Go!

izzou:


I'm looking at the time

If you leave Festac, say 8am and get to Mowe by 9:30am, will they be keeping you there till the next day?
And if yes, what time will they leave the next day? All these will either make it above 20k

My advice? If they are leaving in the morning. Tell them you'll drop them off and come back the next day to pick them at 20k

I'm just looking at your time sha

many peeps have been here in the past sugaring their earnings and making hard working folks look lazy.my brother,they fizzled out before you know it. It was like they never existed.they pushed many peeps into trouble with their fake lives. Someone makes a #15k killing by Providence consistently for 3days,he comes here and starts bothering folks how easy it is to net it, whereas,it's mother luck that just smiled on him temporarily.
People have lost their health and cars trying to meet up with the joneses.me?I'll just say work within your limits.stay healthy to work another day. See this hustle as a temporary one while building a solid business model for yourself.dont overdo it.its a rat race.

Uber go hear am. I see them reducing their commission soon.
This was what we were talking weeks ago. If one platform goes, another comes, drivers go always dey okay and make their money because any platform that doesn't favour drivers will be abandoned by the drivers and can't work without drivers which inherently means it dies in no time

yes, you are right, though somtyms I don't lyk ubers style,

why wud u send me 3km to pick a rider n eventually rider is just going around 3-4km too or just around d street laden wt traffic.

Most of dese apps think only about deir profits n riders( taxify is guilty of this)

Why am I using your app to drive in d first place? Ofcousr, to make 'Profit'.

Sending me all the way to pick someone, I get to d place, rider headed to ICM Ikeja, just across d street, end trip, #375, waited 20mins , no gbagaun.

you know how cumbersome ICM is, you HV to park n go n sort deir parking shit @ n all.
Then d waiting time too.

Hi guys I greet you all. All the elders on this forum, all protocols observed.

Please I'd like your unwatered down opinion on this matter regardless of how unpleasant it may sound. The Bible says "in the multitude of counsel there is safety."

I was driving a corolla 2004 a month back but had to return it to the owner because of the many issues it was having. The last being that the brakes failed.

Now, the owner bought the car Nigerian used for 1.25m with the odometer reading at its last which is 299999 (yea I know, right) anyways, when he told me about it and I took a look at it, I had my doubts the car would be a smooth ride on the platform but I still took it because I like trying things out before concluding.

Fast forward two weeks after putting the car on the platform and driving for just one week I noticed the car shorts oil which i mentioned this to the owner and managed it again for another week where it develop another issue. This time the issue had to do with the noise coming from the adjuster. I took the car to the client who then decided to change the engine and after engine change everything was smooth except for increased fuel consumption which was due to the fact that the car on idle mode read 2000rpm.

I took it back to him and the mechanic adjusted it and everything was fine. Though, prior to the change of engine the hub of the car, as I was made to understand by his mecahnic needed changing because it caused a loud wooing sound when I am on 60kmph and was somehow uncomfortable for riders but I totally ignored that.

The pattern became a week on, 4 days off at the workshop because a lot of issues were just coming up. Now the car started developing a fault where it goes off when I am on the move, that I have to shift to neutral while in motion to start the car again. Though God helped me all the times it stopped that I didn't have issues or accidents. I reported it to the owner who got it fixed by changing the remote box and fuse controller or something like that.

This change seemed to work for a while but later started again until God helped me to spot the issue that was causing it to stop through a rewire who was at shoprite trying to shop. The rewire came out from the mall and saw me trying to start the car and asked me to pop the bonnet which I did and he immediately touched somewhere on the fuse box and the car start immediately. I thanked him and he advised that the fault is an electrical issue and not something a mechanic would fix but a rewire I took his number and thanked him again. By the way, this rewire was properly dressed and seemed like someone who was making good money from his job.

While I was wondering what that rewire at shoprite must have touched to make the car start, I later realized that there was this fuse that is labeled 40 that always go hot because it was fused using a wrap of wires. All I had to do when the car stopped was removed the fuse and change the position the other way and voila! The car comes on.

The last time I drove the car was when it failed break on my way to lekki with a rider in it. Though the rider didn't know what happened but after I dropped the rider, I just jejely took the car back to the owner. I told the owner to change all the faulty parts and fix all the issues before the car can work on the platform because the car was now smooth driving after the engine change save for all those small issues that could take a man's life.

The reason for this long epistle is to give a general idea of the cars history which would enable you all make your suggestions.

The owner has fixed everything wrong with the car and done some body work as well. Repairs has cost him over 400k. Now he wants to sell the car out rightly or hire purchase.

Now my questions
1. Would it be wise to even consider this same car for hire purchase?

2. If yes, given all that has happened and the amount of money that has gone into repairs, how much can this car go for hire purchase if at all?

Please your candid advise and suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks

Guys please be very careful when driving. Don't over-speed or drive bumper-to-bumper; especially directly behind a long truck or container-carrying-trailer. Just heard news that my son's teacher died after their danfo bus got crushed by a container that was rolling back on apongbon bridge.
It's a sad one to take, cos she was young (below 30 years) and very full of life. We've been in tears all morning, but some day we all will take our very last breath and life will go on with others.

Although am in retirement stage already, Uber will never penalize you for "not accepting" trips.
So you can ignore trip requests with long ETA.

I just resumed this Monday and my acceptance is @ 51% already.

Noting fit happen.

WHY DOES YOUR CAR NEED MYMOTO TRACKER

(1) Security: While anti-theft systems like push-buttons before car start, gear lock, pedal locks etc… are good, ONLY A TRACKING SYSTEM LIKE OURS ALLOWS YOU TO RECOVER (AND ALSO PROTECT) YOUR VEHICLE IF YOUR CAR IS HIJACKED FROM YOU WHILE DRIVING. Our trackers are both anti-theft and recovery in nature. e.g. You should shutdown your car before you sleep at night or park in a public space. Whenever you need to start the car, you enable it also.

(2) Remote Monitoring: GPS Security trackers allows you to monitor your vehicle location remotely from your phone. You are able to view your car’s location in real time (from our IOS/ANDROID APPS).

(3) Vehicle History: Through our online platform (IOS/ANDROID APPS) , you can view where your car had been between DAY X and DAY Y. A plot is shown on a map showing your car’s movement over this period of time.

(4) Remotely Stop Your Car: With our security GPS tracker, you are able to stop your car from ANY PHONE with an sms command. This function can also be carried out through our online platforms.

(5) Geo-Fencing Alarm:If your car goes beyond set a radius (or multi-point), say Lagos, you will be notified by sms.

(6) Other alarms (Over-speed Alarm, Ignition On Alarm, Low Battery Alarm ): Over-speed alarms notifies you via sms when your car goes beyond a particular speed. Ignition on notifies you WHENEVER your car is started. Low Battery Alarm lets you know when your car battery is low.

(7) Daily Mileage report (online platform): Daily mileage report shows you a daily chart (in KM) of your car.

YOU'VE SPENT QUITE MUCH TO ACQUIRE YOUR CAR, SECURE IT WITH A TRACKER. BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY

Story 1
During one of our installs, the client shared with us how Mr Ayo (not his real name) borrowed his brothers car, and waylaid in the night somewhere in Lagos. Unknown to the thieves, the car had a tracker in it. That same night they tracked the vehicle to a military baracks (apparenntly the thieves had accomplices with military connections). They went with the police and they were able to recover the car (THE DEMOBILIZE FUNCTION OF THE TRACKER WAS USED TO ENSURE THE CAR DID NOT MOVE UNTIL THEY GOT TO THAT LOCATION)...

Story 2
Mr Bayo was bout entering his car in the night somewhere in Lagos when he was attacked. He immediately used his phone to demobilize the car some minutes after they had zoomed away with the car. The thieves ran away when they discovered the car wasn't strating again. The car was tracked to Ajah. Apparently the thieves ran away in fear with the keys of the car

If you have similar stories please share with us...

Driving in traffic.
I wait in traffic for ONE good hour, engine firing on all Four cylinders , AC in collaboration, stereo in the background too. And all I get in return is #450 !

For one good hour of deploying resources.

This game is a stopgap.....Seriously.

Let's discuss alternate models, more like blue ocean strategy, for running a transportation business. I am more than willing, to bankroll it, alone and/or with other guys here.

The model should be a win-win situation for all stakeholders.

Izou will be the operations manager; he's got the temprament.

Enough brains are here to design a profitable model for transport....
