Felicity Eseke, a mother of five who has driven for ride-hailing platform inDrive for five years, has been rewarded with a brand-new Wuling XC250 2025 in recognition of her dedication and sacrifice. The vehicle was presented to her at a ceremony held at Ikeja City Mall, Lagos, on Tuesday, August 25, 2026.
Five Years of Dedication Behind the Wheel
For five years, Eseke has spent countless hours navigating the roads, not just to earn a living but to build a better future for her five children. Each trip she completed as an inDrive driver represented another step towards keeping her family going and ensuring her children stayed in school. Since joining inDrive, Eseke has completed more than 2,766 rides, demonstrating the consistency and commitment that have characterised her time on the platform.
Despite the demands of raising five children, she continued to put in the hours on the road, using her earnings to support her family and pay for her children's schooling. Her journey reflects the sacrifices many parents make quietly every day, working long hours and putting their children's dreams ahead of their own.
Daughter's Heartfelt Tribute Caught inDrive's Attention
Eseke's inspiring story came to the attention of inDrive after her daughter, Louisa Eseke, contacted the company to share how much her mother had inspired her over the years. Louisa wanted her mother to know that her relentless dedication to her family and commitment to her work had not gone unnoticed.
The vehicle was presented to Eseke in the presence of popular content creator Akinyemi Oluwaseun, aka Asherkine, inDrive drivers and other well-wishers. The ceremony marked a significant moment not only for Eseke but also for the broader community of drivers who use the platform to earn a living.
inDrive Recognises the Human Stories Behind Every Trip
Speaking about the recognition, Timothy Oladimeji, Country Manager of inDrive Nigeria, said Eseke's experience represents the resilience of drivers who work tirelessly to provide for their families. He explained that the company wanted to recognise the human stories behind the thousands of people who use its platform to make a living and support their loved ones.
"Eseke's story represents determination, sacrifice, and an unwavering commitment to her children. She reminds us that behind every trip is a person with a dream, a family, and a reason to keep going. We are proud to celebrate her and recognise the incredible journey she has undertaken for her children," Oladimeji said.
Gratitude and a New Beginning for Eseke
For Eseke, the recognition was not simply about receiving a new vehicle. It was an acknowledgement of the years of hard work and sacrifice she had invested in her family. The 'Super Mum' driver expressed her gratitude to inDrive for recognising her efforts and for providing a platform that has enabled her to earn a living and support her family.
"I am really grateful to inDrive for recognising and celebrating me. I am equally excited about inDrive for creating a platform that allows me to earn a livelihood. I see this gift as a big reward for the hard work," Eseke said.
After years of driving to give her five children a chance at a brighter future, Eseke can now take to the road in a brand-new car—a fitting reward for a mother whose determination kept her moving, one ride at a time.
