With Bar Finals starting in just two days, I’ll be honest, the spark feels a little dimmed right now.
My back hurts, I’ve reached that surreal phase of studying where I'm staring at a page, reading the words, but genuinely wondering if my brain is actually processing at all.

@_unEDITHed_ There was no notice of appeal na 🤧
I thought it was notice of motion for extension of time.

So, as a law student, I have to ask:

If the platform displays a fare and a driver accepts the trip, at what point does a driver's right to negotiate become a consumer-protection issue?

I’m a Nigerian Law School student, and today I encountered something shocking in Port Harcourt
A Bolt trip showing ₦3,000 became ₦7,000 after the driver called.
We tried another driver, Same thing.
Then we tried inDrive…
₦3,000 became ₦8,000.
Apparently, it’s “normal” here.

And I understand that drivers have legitimate concerns fuel, traffic, maintenance and whether a trip is actually worth the fare.
But surely there's a difference between rejecting a ₦3,000 trip and accepting it, only to call the passenger and demand ₦7,000 or ₦8,000.
