I believe those who can afford it, should ignore Bolt n Uber for the time being pending when both apps are cured of their madness.

Bolt wants 25% commission n you set up stupid fares. Uber likewise charges up to 33% commission and you expect drivers to take your dirty fares.
Average price of petrol in lagos is 980/litre. That's roughly 1,000 naira per litre.

If you ignore Uber and Bolt and continue picking shitty fares on Indrive, what sense is there? The main culprit here is Indrive, they are the destructive element here. Uber and Bolt are simply trying to be at pair with them in other not to lose their market shares. The drivers too that don't have the mentality to ignore trips on Indrive are largely part of the problem.

But then again, looking at the unemployment rate and hunger out there, some of these drivers don't care. If it's 5k they take home a day after 10hrs of hard labour, most will not mind. App companies are using these to their own advantage. Take Indrive out of the equation and there might just be some respite. If there has to be any protest, it should have started from the root cause of the problem which is Indrive.

You're right but I will still ignore bolt and uber and stick to indrive while I choose a better trip. Since bolt thinks it's best for them to reduce price to have more riders, let me see how drivers will go online...


A 10k trip on indrive is better than a 12k trip on bolt.

Yeah, but the 10k trip on Indrive depending on distance is far and few. Most of their trips are time based and not about distance I have noticed. Would you take a trip.of 10k from Ikeja to Ajah just because it's 10k? This is what Indrive looks like on an average day.

Definitely not, I'm talking about a trip of same distance and within same time frame...

The only reason why I hate Indrive is cox you have to be on their app so not to miss out on good trip, and also, you gotta park and sit for long before getting that good trip...

the problem to me in all this is still drivers they go on indrive to be accepting ridiculous prices during the December period when no one was accepting ridiculous prices engers were forced to increase it so na drivers be the problem and this is the main issue with this hustle too the calibre of people you are doing the job with no class no levels no self esteem just riff raft that ain't got no dreams

You are very correct. What will make a driver pick a trip of 1k or 2k on Indrive if not madness with present rate of inflation and fuel cost? I wonder what such a person stand to gain. Is that fare for labour or fuel? I'm not sure any self respecting human being will even do that but this is normal on Indrive. What sort of hunger pushes them to that level? Seriously, a cart pusher in Lagos will not take such as payment to convey your goods, same distance using his wheelbarrow.

It's not. That's a comfort ride. Cars from 2009- 2010 upwards. It's like saying taking a trip on 2010 corrolla for 2,400 naira.. That's ridiculous.

I'm sure one cant charter Korope bus for 2400.

U guys advocate morning and night on this platform for Indrive because of low commission and "freedom". Instead of calling it out for being the market disruptor and spoiler that it actually is.
If any app should be boycotted it is Indrive.
