One of my keke riders misbehaved last week; I tried to resolve it, but the dude was taking me for a ride. He didn’t account for the week, and he didn’t call to tell me what happened as to why he didn’t do the account. I tried calling him, but it wasn’t productive.
So, I tracked his location, went there, and seized the keke. I told him he would take his keke back once he is able to make the account and pay for the previous week, which he didn’t meet up with.
Mind you, this is just barely two months since my company gave him the keke. I confiscated the keke and brought it home.
This evening, I wanted to buy fuel; I thought to myself, since there is a keke at home, why not ride it and buy the fuel instead of paying another keke man for the short distance?
So immediately, I drove out; someone shouted ‘hey Onye keke.’ I said yessssssssβ¦ where are you going? The dude said New Haven; I said “enter.”
Brethren, just three persons I carried this night; I made 2900 Naira.
I didn’t even charge them much; I just said, “give me anything you like.” The first guy gave me 1k, and then the second guy gave me 1500, while the last girl said itβs only 400 Naira she has; I said enter.
I bought the fuel and went home.
I am still the master in this game; I use to tell my riders there is so much money in keke business; take it seriously; it will feed you for life. Just do only drops and never reject a work unless the money offered for the distance is insanely cheap.
Transportation in Enugu is another business that will never fade away even in the nearest future. I made something out of riding keke. You too, as a keke rider, can become someone from this side hustle.
I know a man who is a bus driver who built two houses in Enugu from just being a bus driver.
If you have the money to buy keke, buy it and drive it yourself. In 1 year and 8 months, whatever you spent on that keke you will get it back, and the keke will still be yours. Don’t allow anyone to tell you that it’s not profitable unless you are not serious.
Before I end this, here is a reminder that we are a keke managing company that takes the stress off you by mediating between you and your rider.
