Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi Rides Subway
People, that is Uber CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi. He is on a train - and reading a book. Sure, it is possible that the UN General Assembly might have pushed all Uber drivers out of New York (!) for the crusader of ride hailing to be advertising subways and trains. For me though, there is a message: America has a denominator for all humans.
Otherwise, how do you explain that a man who runs a company which can use just 40% of its value to buy all the stocks in the Nigerian Stock Exchange can touch the train? Nigeria needs to look at its sheer values as a nation!
I see CEOs of insurance companies which generate less than $8 million annual revenue flying first class on international flights, out of Lagos, and could not understand where the conviction came from.
A working society elevates humans. Nigeria certainly needs to work better.
