The Police are not and should not in any community of civilized people be used as debt or levy collectors, or in the resolution or settlement of disputes amongst people, as such use of Policemen often lead to infringement on the fundamental rights of others

In china, you can petition the police involve the police on debt related matter or any business dispute

Police will come and invite both of you and try to settle the matter, the next step if not settled will be court...

The guy could have respectably followed the police, what if he was invited and didn't show up? What if the car dealer said he defrauded him and the guy scaling fence shows he had bad intentions

POLICE ARE USED FOR INTERNAL CRISES INCLUDES PREVENTION OF ANYTHING THAT WILL LEAD TO BREAK DOWN OF LAW ANÐ ORDER

This is how they will use police to pick up for a matter that is purely civil. Don't cry o. sad

Let's be realistic,if it's your business someone is messing up like this will you be happy because his a celebrity and have called 1m times and he refused to answer your call.if I default then why will I cry that police pick me up.the best is to get a surety which is part of law and bail himself out with agreement instead of this show of shame to resist arrest knowing fully well he didn't commit murder or stealing.

Dear Lawyer,since indebtness isn't a criminal offence, kindly educate me on how to recover my funds from an heartless debtor who refuses to pay?

REMEMBER TO LEND SOMEONE MONEY IS HUMAN, BUT TO PAY BACK IS DIVINE

STUPID question.
How many people owe banks? Have you ever heard of a bank arresting anybody for owing them money??
Simple: they make sure you can pay BEFORE they lend you money. Then if you don't pay they won't give you again, and report you to other lenders

Mummyimbecile:
you guys are the reason your country is this way.

The police has no right to arrest portable over his debt. That is what the lawa say... Oh I forgot, the country is a lawless one by the way.

What the car dealer should have done is simply get a lawyer to write portable a demand notice, telling him emphatically to pay his debt or meet them in court. It's now in the place of the law court to recover the debt from him.

That's how it's done in a sane country

Who told you due process wasn't followed?
You clearly didn't watch the video. It's the court that issue warrant for the arrest. Court doesn't wake up and issue a warrant just like that !

Re: Lawyer Faults Portable’s Arrest, Says Police Not Debt Recovery Agency by dman4mdmoon(m): 2:07pm On May 15
They have started! Emergency Advocates! The Lawyer should apply to represent Portable pro bono. If Portable is not careful, the case will be changed and the seller will claim he obtained the product "by false pretences". It will be changed from debt recovery to fraud!

You use the word if. In this case there is nothing like that. The police us wrong. Focus on what the Lawyer said and stop adding anyth6to it. Even let's accept your scenario, the case has to be lodge with police and a court hD to order warrant of arrest before anyone can be arrested. Nothing like that in this case. So stop defending nonsense

UNDERSTANDING THE PROCEDURES AND LEGAL AVENUES FOR DEBT RECOVERY IN NIGERIA.

Introduction:

Debt recovery is a vital aspect of financial management and ensuring the repayment of borrowed funds. This article aims at providing an overview of the procedures and legal avenues available for debt recovery.

1. Negotiation and Mediation:

The first step in recovering debts is often attempting negotiation or mediation between the creditor and debtor. Parties can explore alternative dispute resolution methods through legal representation such as negotiation or mediation to reach a mutually acceptable agreement for repayment terms.

2. Issuance of Demand Letter:

If negotiations fail, creditors through their lawyer can issue a formal demand letter requesting payment from the debtor within a stipulated time frame. The demand letter should contain detailed information about the outstanding amount owed, supporting documents, consequences of nonpayment, and details on future legal actions.

3. Filing a Civil Action:

When efforts at amicable settlement prove abortive, creditors may initiate legal proceedings against defaulting debtors by filing a civil action at court of competent jurisdiction. It is pertinent to engage competent legal representation familiar with debt recovery laws.

4. Enforcement Mechanisms:

Upon successful litigation and delivery of judgement in favour of the creditor. Post-judgment order is to be obtained on behalf of creditor to enforce judgments legally through various means such as:

a) Writs of Execution: Creditors can obtain writs authorizing bailiffs and court staff to seize assets belonging to judgment debtors for sale via public auction.

b) Garnishee Proceedings: Creditors may apply to attach funds held by third parties (such as banks) who owe money or hold property on behalf of defaulting individuals or organizations.

Conclusion:

Debt recovery in Nigeria is a comprehensive process governed by legal procedures. It is important for both creditors and defaulting debtors to understand their rights and responsibilities throughout the debt recovery journey. It is equally important for every debt agreement to be drafted in a Legal document and signed by parties to ease the debt recovery process.
