Kayode Emmanuel 停在尼日利亚首都阿布贾最大的酒店 — — Transcorp Hilton Abuja 外，等待通过 Uber Technologies Inc. 应用程序接单。
Kayode Emmanuel was parked outside the biggest hotel in Nigeria’s capital, the Transcorp Hilton Abuja, waiting for ride requests on his Uber Technologies Inc. app.
当没有订单时，他做了许多尼日利亚人在面对网络不稳定时会做的事：他切换了手机的飞行模式，先关闭再打开。
When none came, he did what many Nigerians do when faced with patchy internet: he toggled his phone’s airplane mode off and back on.
随后，他的妻子打来电话。她看到一则帖子，称该叫车公司已在尼日利亚立即停止运营。
Then his wife called. She’d seen an post saying the ride-hailing firm had ceased operations in the country with immediate effect.
