Price wars are good for us wananchi. Reminds me of Safaricom v Kencell which made calling very affordable.
Good for the consumer, bad for the uber car owners yet there is no denying the fact that you have to balance the dynamics of supply vs demand and competition. Uber has stopped taking anymore cars and has restricted the cars to be not older than year 2010. They want newer cars.
i heard that they use your vehicle for only a year, na malipo ni upuzi
is it true?
Creative destruction, anyone?

Wenye gari are they making anything? 35 bob a kilometre, uber wamechukua their 20%, 7bob, ngata ichukue 8bob. Uachwe na 20bob a kilometre to cover your overhead. If you need to return you 1 milli investment in 20 months, na dere analipwa thao a day, insuarance ni 40k a year na service ni 6k a month, your car will need to do 160km a day. Assuming your car works 330days in a year. The extra mulla (fixed charge na 4bob per minute) is for incidentals
Yes, They do make a good return from a NET of as low as 15 bob per km…so 20 works well
This is good news. Uber is here to stay!! The taxi cartels can as well get fucked.
