Good morning Bro!

Once again, it’s quite unfortunate that you both have to go through all these brouhaha.

Here’s one thing I’ve learnt in this trade, in order to have a worry-free experience when working on your building project, patience, tolerance and understanding must co-exist.

To be honest, you’re not impatient, delusional, or unrealistic to feel extremely frustrated right now but just like I’ve been preaching here - be the matured one on this.
Every construction project will always come with lot of ups and downs and periods where it seems like nothing is happening. Things will take longer than expected. Mistakes will be made. Communication will be poor.
Be prepared to make some concession and keep rocking your boat amidst the storm. At the end it will all be worth.

____________

There’s no perfect project but you can chose to have a great experience by making few concession.

It’s not always a money matter!

UC92:

Managing Procurement is one area everyone who calls himself a professional ought to pay attention to.
It is unfortunate this project went south.
The cost has been sunk. Trying to recover that money might take forever while the project suffers, the client loses time and more money.

Oga Micgray if I were you, I will forfeit that money and source for someone to do my job on good monitoring.

Ogami

In as much as want this resolve am sorry to say that you are not doing it the right away, first you never called or message me to ask how far I have gone yet you came here to make claim? Not good enough sir….

As there nothing much I can do at the moment since police is already on the case…

The said got angry and left your site base on the fact that no one is there to monitor him… and you did told me you have someone on ground.. shouldn’t have allowed him to move out his equipment..

The case as been entered at police HQ already..

n3xt:


35k to track

I hope you know the police can’t keep him for more than 24 hours.

Maybe the guy would spend another 20k to bail himself. Has this solved the problem? Maybe or maybe not?

___________

To think the guy is asking for balance of N50k...

MrOkenwa:

Engineer, it’s unfortunate that you have to go through this. If I may suggest, why not yield to the guy’s demand for the balance to be paid, so that he can have funds to finish up the job. He’ll sign an undertaking for you before the balance is paid. he’ll closely monitored and would be picked up if he defaults.

n3xt:


Shoutout to all those who use these miscreants to victimize their contractors. Your fanboy is a super fraud.

Take guns away from these guys and see how useless they are.
You need to see how one of them was begging me during an orderly room trial by the X-Squad at the force headquarter when they came up with the fictitious N5m fraud claim against brabus.

Useless set of people!

Like Hushpuppi, like Kyari. Just listen to the weak defense of the super fraud

So what’s the update on the borehole saga? It’s another 2 weeks after the issue was raised.

JohnNU:
Mr. Gbenga, I must confess, you are truly a trustworthy person. I have been following your profile since 2015, I even called you and we spoke in 2016. All this while there has been no complaints.
Its rare in Nigeria for one to maintain this level of integrity most especially in business.
Will contact you soon for my CAC registration, and TIN.
Keep up the good job.

Give the referee some time to sort things out, a referee is like a guarantor.
But give him time since the police are involved already

michlins:
please sir, I'm a vendor here and without referral, I can't see myself moving forward. Kindly give him time to sort things out. According to him, this person has been reliable to the best of his knowledge

jabolo:


I appreciate this but ...




I do not expect a recommender (not 'referrer' as you call it - which implies getting some benefit in the transaction) to stand surety.

If I highlight a service provider based on my honest lived experiences, it is your own risk to transact with that person and I cannot be involved in any resulting shennanigans.

If that becomes part of the equation, this thread loses something further and is well on the road to being a hollow shell of giant adverts for solar batteries.

Ahem, I'm speaking for me too. Good day

diordaves:


First off; it is not a 'crime' to recommend someone. A recommendation is out of lived experience. So the 'highly respected Nairalander' is not part of this standoff. You sound disappointed at the 'highly respected Nairalander'. In my opinion, this shouldn't be. I could be wrong. Please feel free to correct me.

From experience (as we've been here before in the several past), you can only resolve such issues with peer (members) pressure on the contractor and in doing this you need to be transparent (open with the truth) and identify the contractor. This will give the contractor the platform to state their case or challenges. Only then can members of the forum make suggestions or pile pressure as the case may be.

Some have said that . This is largely incorrect. A better number of such issues have been resolved here by the collectives either by meaningful suggestions on the way forward either by concessions on the parties or plea or by members pressure.

I suggest you identify the contractor so that they can come out to state their case or challenge. In a situation like this, it is good wisdom to hear from all parties involved. You can't shave a man's head in his absence.

n3xt:


Sorry my bro for what you’re currently experiencing.

I won’t expect anything meaningful from here though because we’ve walked this route before many years ago and the highly respected and reputable members you seek had no meaningful contributions to make. It’s like they rejoice in downfall of some folks here.

Try reach out to the borehole contractor and see how you can resolve amicably. You may have to make some unplanned expenses though.
If he hasn’t moved the faulty machine, just hold on to it till everything is resolved. That’s the only thing you can use to hold him.

I was in similar situation in 2013 and all I got here was “He was a fraud despite the fact that all evidence proved contract was awarded to a ‘reputable’ sub-contractor.” I even engaged a team of geologist led by a Prof at Adeyemi College of Education, Ondo to conduct the survey. Yet, we got no water.

Who gets the blame now? Because that’s all we know how to do best here.

You?
Or the borehole contractor?
Or the highly respected nairalander who recommended the borehole Contractor?


Once again, sorry for the inconveniences this might have caused you.

I already placed caveat on borehole drilling outside Lagos.

Morning Sir. Don't Regard Anyone as bad belle even if you think so.

I understand where you're coming from & i agree with your points.

But just make valid points (as you have done) without insult . Avoid any word that would cause a grudge.

Civilengineer:
with a due respect sir i think u are taking this professionalism thing a bit too far sir. so what u are basically saying is that a hnd holder shouldn't practice what he studied maybe he should go and do money ritual since he doesn't carry that big name tag to his title? bossman u are an engineer i know that but trust me in structures i don't think u can really go head to head with me even as at 5years ago, i have far gone off to a point i now design for California engineers i ve linked with via upwork and quora, u know what that means right, u have to start studying their design codes, seismic design etc have u even gone into those, or should i send u a design i made for an arab engineer some year back. yet i am not coren certified. all that body does is eat money and eat more money, their conferences are filled with old men sleeping all through the conference lol. in the firm i currently work my ceo will never want to loose me, he dares not i dont even go to office often, i handle big contracts for my self too and they dare not owe me a penny at the month end, thats coz im that good but since i dont carry the coren tag should i stop working and go and start doing yahoo yahoo lol since that one needs no proffesionalism? sir i am not saying professionals shoiuldt be recognized but stop that intimidating talks coz its pointless. i know alot of coren engineers that cant do real design other copy and paste design, we both know the drafting is nothing, the calculation sheet is where the bosses are know. i mean real calculation done manually not those automated ones. my conclusion if u can do those then u are an engineer. EOD!
