“You gave a less privileged an item for the less privileged to be delivered to the less privileged. Now, the less privileged driver has taken the item. Why not pray to God to answer your prayers as an actual less privileged has taken the saraka. Do you want to now lock him?”

@SenileCoder reacted:

“@uber @Uber_Support are useless when it comes to customer support. Most of their responses are robot/auto responses it's like their Customer Support is non-existent. I was charged twice for a trip almost 2 months ago I am yet to be refunded. So sorry you are going through this.”

@C_CDon commented:

“This is akin to what some of these Fintech Apps do. How do you onboard a rider on your platform with just 'Ali'? Where is the surname, verified address and valid ID? @UberNigeria need to come clean, otherwise, sue their pants off.”
