sounds like a case of either:
1) Bobo is still living in the pre-NIPOST era, or
2) It is his "take style" way of saying either he can't afford one or he doesn't want you to do the site, for whatever reason.
Be that as it may, if and when you get a chance to chat with the guy again, present to him, "exhibits A and B":
http://www.nigerianbar.org/ and
http://www.banwo-ighodalo.com/See what he says after showing him the 2 aforementioned sites. Then charge him with contempt of a webmaster
