Diary Of Uber and Bolt Driver

THINGS DEY HAPPEN O! One of our driver friends, who only goes home once every two weeks or sometimes twice a week, always sends money to his wife and children to take care of them.

I made a payment of ₦2,200, which rightly brought my balance down to ₦6,625. Later that day, I completed a trip from Aladelola Street in Ikosi, Ketu, to Magodo. The fare was ₦4,300, and the rider did not use any promo or bonus. Naturally, I decided to check my updated balance — and to my shock, it had increased from ₦6,625 to ₦8,550.
